Dear Mandeep
We are disappointed to read your review and do not recognise the version of events described. Our team attempted to assist you professionally by providing advice based on your Motability eligibility and vehicle change timeframe, with the intention of ensuring you received the most appropriate experience closer to your renewal date. Whilst we appreciate you were unhappy with this advice, we do not accept that the level of language and behaviour directed towards our dealership and contact centre colleagues was appropriate.
We would also like to clarify that the Sales Executive involved does not smoke and therefore we dispute this allegation. We remain committed to maintaining a respectful environment for both our customers and colleagues at all times.
Kind regards

Possibly the best experience I’ve had with a dealership. I visited and purchased a car last week, my rep was Fitz and he made the process as easy as buying a car can be. Had a minor issue with the cable but this was sorted no questions asked. I’ll be back for another car in the future.

Returning customer for the fifth time
I have just taken delivery of my fifth car from Vertu Cupra Derby (previously Bristol Street Seat). Having done business with this dealership for the last several years tells of my ongoing confidence in them and the service I always receive.
My most recent purchase was handled by Andrew Lawrence, who also looked after me for my last purchase. He was friendly while also being efficient and professional. A credit to the dealership!
Looking forward to doing future business!

Excellent experience
I’ve dealt with this branch on previous occasions and have always found the team to be welcoming, friendly, and very helpful.
I’d like to give a special mention to Ben Tomlinson, who was excellent throughout the purchase of my new vehicle. He kept me updated at every stage of the process and made everything straightforward and stress-free.
It’s been a real pleasure working with you again for my second vehicle purchase from the branch. A big thank you to Ben and the whole team, I absolutely love my new car!.
