Great service, friendly and helpful staff. Really happy with my new car!
The coolant in the car kept emptying in the week or so after buying the car and there was evidence of an oil leak, so I took it back to Select Cars SW (SCSW) to sort, among other issues. They said they tested it and there were no problems with oil or water but were unable to produce paperwork to verify upon request. They were also rude and defiant. The problems persisted and I claimed under the warranty. SCSW didn't give me warranty paperwork but the details were on their website. However, despite the appearance on the website, the warranty only pays for certain named parts and it cost me £170 to fix the water and oil leaks in addition to what the warranty company paid. However, the fixing of the water leak revealed that there was already a head gasket/cylinder head failure. I claimed under warranty again and told SCSW about the issue who at first appeared concerned and spoke to the repairing garage. Despite what the repairing garage told them, they (rudely) concluded that it was not a pre-existing issue and would only pay a small 'gratuity' towards repair. The limited 'warranty' only covered, again, certain parts and limited labour because SCSW opted for a very basic warranty plan. As well as not having use of the car for a month, the total cost to me to repair a pre-existing condition for a car under 'warranty' was over £1,000 because the best way to sort all the problems was a new engine. Our trusted local repairing garages, and Citizen's Advice, said they felt that SCSW should have paid for and sorted out the issues themselves for a car that I only had a few weeks. However, SCSW barely acknowledged the problem let alone sorting it out and were extremely rude in the process. I could have taken this further legally but do not have the time or energy and can only warn others about checking cars, the garage and the warranty in advance of purchase. I definitely would not recommend the after-sales service from this garage.

Christine Chapman in response to Bad warranty. Unhelpful resolution
Totally agree my vehicle has had numerous issues since purchasing no help from garage total denial they have any responsibility
Bought a lovely BMW from this family business. In getting it checked out found that one of the head lights was faulty. One call and Reece sourced a lamp unit for me and got it delivered to my garage of choice and agreed the repair cost no problem. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Select Cars South West.
