Service and MOT

Easy to arrange service and MOT. They kept me informed with a video of the car examination too which is really helpful. We have a Service Plan too which is another good thing so there is not a single big cost. The car was picked up and dropped when they said it would which is an extra charge but worth it so you are not hanging around or having to have someone else pick you up, etc. 10/10 service as usual

Hi Andrew, thank you for your fantastic review. We're delighted to hear that everything was easy to arrange and that the service plan and collection and delivery options helped make the experience more convenient for you. It's also great to know that the vehicle health check video was a useful part of the process. Thank you for your continued support and your 10/10 feedback, it means a great deal to the team.

SIMPLE OIL CHANGE

When called in to see what time to pick up my vehicle was told by their HEAD OFFICE that our car had not been delivered that day,which was nonsense as we took the car in ourselves for Oil change. Then we were sent an encrypted Link to View our Cars Service which did not work,kept saying REFRESH LINK. So again another call to see if they could sort this out.

Polite and helpful staff

Polite car park attendant who knew my name. Helpful receptionist, and only had to wait a few minutes before called to staff who checked on what services were due to be done. Not expecting phonecall to collect car until around 5.00 but car serviced and cleaned and ready by 12.30. Great and speedy service.

Listers in Boston Lincolnshire are rip off merchants & I would not advise anyone to buy anything from them as they pressure you into buying a vehicle & then when you have done less than a thousand miles they tell you that there is a hole in the air con pipe & they think that the clutch needs replacing. What a joke for a company !!!
I am a pensioner with cancer & the think they can treat me like this, well I will see them in court. 😡😡😡😡

Poor service/repairs policy

I bought a used VW Tiguan in January 2026 from Listers, Worcester with a 1 year warranty. After 2 months I had to replace the dangerously and irregularly worn front tyres, indicating a tracking issue. After fixing the tracking it became clear there was a malfunction causing the rear wheels to skid. Separately when the first heat wave happened I switched on the air conditioning for the first time to find it didn't work. Both these 2 issues were clearly faults with the car when sold. I took the car into the garage to fix these issues, and also a rear door issue from a suspected hit from another car in a car park. I was told the warranty wouldn't cover any of the issues. After a lot of unnecessary arguing they eventually paid for the fixes to the skidding and the air conditioner, but failed to fix the rear door issue despite the fact that I had offered to pay for this. The car was with them for 10 days so plenty of time to sort the rear door issue. I only discovered it hadn't been fixed when I collected the car - had to take it back again for the rear door issue to be fixed, and they insisted on charging me for a courtesy car when I should never have had to bring the car in again if they had done the job and fixed the rear door issue the first time. The 1 year warranty is not worth the paper it is written on. The service policy of Listers seems to be to try to extract as much money from customers as possible and get away with what they can, rather than pay for what they should do from a moral perspective.

Service

Pleasant surroundings to spend two hours re. Car service. Would have been 5star but informed my car needed attention for a leak to the air conditioning unit and a tyre tread was low. Happily was re informed it wasn’t my car after all and mine had passed.
Thanks.

Great service from the service department.

Great service from the service department as usual, friendly and helpful staff and the work was completed to a great standard, they also cleaned and valeted as part of the service.
This is the first time I have dealt with BART from Listers Toyota Lincoln, great guy to deal with.

Thanks

Great example of quality customer care

This was a great example of high quality customer care. The service I received was professional, courteous and efficient throughout. Communication was excellent from start to finish and I felt informed and comfortable with the fault diagnosis, the subsequent work, and the cost.

Very pleasant experience.

Very pleasant experience when visiting the Listers showroom in Boston Lincolnshire. Had no intention of buying anything but after dealing with Adam we came to a very amicable agreement and bought another BMW. Can’t really fault the dealership and Adam was very helpful and persuasive during our meeting. Everything was explained and handled well and when we went to collect the car everything was in place for a seamless handover and the car had been presented well. Reception staff were cheery and helpful when we arrived and directed us to the waiting area and provided coffee and biscuits while we waited, Adam is a polite and helpful salesman and could be very persuasive as I said before but would happily go back to him in the future if/when we change cars again. Customer Service was really good and nothing seemed to be any trouble to anyone we spoke with.
