We looked at a couple of Jaguar XKR at Rix Motors, and Norman was on hand to help us, getting each car out and talking through the various vehicles on display. After settling on our car of choice, we noticed a slight mark on the centre console which Norman assured us would be resolved. Having agreed deposits and part-ex, all of which handled without any undue pressure, we went for a test drive and agreed to purchase the vehicle. Collected the car the day after, communication was great throughout, and Norman is a credit to the company - and the centre console was repaired so well you wouldn't have ever known. Handover of car was great, and really impressed with Rix Motors and would definitely recommend, five star service, thanks for all your help, Mike & Jo.

Seriously poor quality cars and they don’t care. Prepare to be lied to about the condition of the car you’re looking at by the wonderful team Rix. So many issues with the car I bought I don’t know where to start. Damaged suspension, dodgy brakes, vibrating steering wheel, missing bolts to vital parts including exhaust bracket & bellhousing, corrosion to metallic parts, NOX sensor issues, damaged wheel bearing, a radio that doesn’t work.. the list goes on and on. The car should never have passed an MOT. Bought a car from these cowboys in good faith, being promised there are no issues with the car And that it’s condition was perfect. Sale was rushed and they got me to fill out paperwork without offering a test drive. When I asked for one they said they’d sort that out after but never did. Salesman didn’t seem to know where he was or what he was doing and constantly wandered off saying he’d be back in a moment. He was the same both times I had to come back to them for failed repairs. After noticing faults myself I’ve been back to them twice (all day long, 9am - 5pm) for repairs but they told me there is absolutely nothing wrong with the car. Then noticed suspension damage. They charged me for the repair of suspension arms which I wasn’t liable for. After the two failed repair trips to Rix (167 miles each way twice) and two full days wasted I decided to take it to Mercedes who were shocked at the state of he car. Some of the minor issues have been looked into by Rix but the major ones are still outstanding which they have advised they will not fix. They shrug themselves of any responsibility despite selling cars in appalling condition. 4 months after purchase I still have dodgy brakes and steering, and the “luxury” car rattles like a bus from back to front. Issues still outstanding following Rix failed repairs: - Ticking sound from brakes - Clunk/ knock sound after stopping - Severe sunroof rattle - Sunroof occasionally doesn’t close - Shaky steering wheel while driving - Shaky steering while stationary/reversing - Vibrations from steering rack - NOX fault code found by Mercedes - Severely corroded brake pipes 2x rear, 1x front They don’t offer any standard warranty which shows how much faith they have in their own cars and mechanics. They will mock you and make fun of you to your face when you report issues. They don’t take complaints seriously, giving ludicrous excuses for poor, lazy and incompetent work by their so called engineers. Totally unprofessional. They will lie about quality and condition of cars to sell them at premium prices, when their stock is anything but premium. They will ask you to remove negative reviews as they have done twice already with me. Rix responses to reviews are also completely inaccurate.

I expressed interest in a luxury vehicle and was asked to pay a refundable holding fee of £500 pending my inspection and test drive of the vehicle on the weekend as the dealership is located 4 and a half hours away from my home by road. Following my initial enquiries into the vehicle, usual checks HPI, MOT etc, I decided to withdraw my interest and I communicated this to the dealership immediately, by the start of the following business day. I requested a refund of my refundable holding deposit and the dealership has refused. This conduct is very unethical and I cannot recommend this dealership.

AVOID no matter how desperate! Please AVOID at ALL costs no matter how desperate you are for a car. We entered a finance agreement over 7 years for a 5year old car with approx 42000 miles in 2019(can't remember exact date). Total repayable £12000. The car was great for the 10 months, then started to loose power while driving. Very scary while on the motorway and the whole family is in the car. We took it to our local garage and was told we needed an oil change so we paid £150 for this. We notified rix motors and also Ford. We was told its quite normal for an ecoboost engine. The car drove OK for a while after but we noticed it was worse when the weather was hot. Rix said its not their problem. We took it back to the local garage when it started making a huge, unhealthy noise. We was told it must be the engine but nothing on the diagnostics were showing up. The only way to be sure would be to strip the engine.. We asked the finance company oodle for advice and was told we had to get an independent inspection report. We paid another £200 for this and was told the same as the local garage. £3500 for a new engine. Bearing in mind the milage now is at 54000 miles. We have only drove 12000 miles in 2 years. We still owe approx. £7000 over the next 5 years for a car that needs £3500 repairs before it can be driven again. Obviously if we could afford this, we would of just bought a car outright. Rix has had the final statement 'has nothing to do with us, they have had the car over 6 month'. We basically bought a ticking time bomb and are stuck with a non running car and a huge debt. Christmas is cancelled this year, sleep well cowboys x

Rix Motors Ltd from Rix Motors in response to Avoid!!!

Good morning Donna/David, I would firstly like to how sorry we are to find you in the position you find yourselves. I understand how disappointed you are with the mechanical failure of your vehicle, I have contacted Ford Motor Company to see if they can assist as we now understand they have had some issues with this particular ecoboost engine. They unfortunately have declined to offer any assistance to try and rectify the problem. I also realise the financial position you are in with the outstanding finance you have on the vehicle, with your permission I would like to obtain a settlement figure and see if there is something we are able to do to and help you out of the situation you are in? As a family run business we are dedicated to offering the best support, advise, and customer service possible. You have had the vehicle for 2 years and have driven 12000 miles, and unfortunately the mechanical issues have happened outside our 3 month warranty period. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss the situation with you at your convenience and see what we can do to help.
