I've just driven away with a GLB 250+ Electric and it's the nicest car I've ever driven. Gurj was a great help from start to finish - not pushy, allowed ample test drives and arranged a quick handove... See more

I wish I'd read these reviews before I took my car there. I would strongly suggest keeping well away, there's definitely something very strange going on! You'll probably pay a bit more at a proper Mer... See more

Annual Service and MOT

I booked my car in for an annual service and MOT.

I requsted a collection service from my home and return when the works were completed.

As usual they telephoned me with details of the work required and costs before proceeding.

They took payment over the phone and then returned the car ready to go.

A polite and efficient service was provided.

Great customer service. Highly recommended!

I can't speak highly enough of MB-Nottingham. I brought my recently purchased 20-year-old Smart Roadster in after discovering various hard-to-diagnose issues.

The customer service from Martin was first class as he was happy to answer any questions and keep me updated. They swiftly diagnosed the issues and let me know how much everything would cost. Once I had approved the work and parts, they ordered the required parts and got me back on the road.

I'd highly recommend giving them a call or a visit if you're having any issues.

I recently purchased a new Mercedes from Nottingham. After a really poor service earlier in the year, Mercedes managed to recover the situation and were excellent in selling me my new car. Gurjinder was excellent, great customer service really friendly and informative. Communication throughout the process was great!
Thank you

Non genuine part

I think they don’t even deserve one star, they claim themselves to be Mercedes specialists, but they use non- genuine MB parts on our vehicle, we only found out this when this non-genuine parts stopped working after 2 weeks, and we ended up paying a lot more extra to get it replaced at MB dealer in Nottingham, and confirmed by their engineer non- genuine part was used, after numerous email communication, Steve and Martin agreed we return the faulty parts, and delete previous comments left in google, then they would refund, after we did what they asked, no refund is received and no reply since then, disgusting, to all of you who are preparing to fix your car at this place, you may not get what you think you paid for, beware

We would like to clarify that when we worked on your vehicle, our primary goal was to expedite the repairs and get you back on the road as soon as possible. At the time, Mercedes-Benz UK and neither Daimler Benz Stuttgart in Germany did not have the necessary control units in stock, with no estimated supply date available. In this challenging and rare situation, we acted in good faith and sourced a pair of control units from a reputable supplier in Europe, ensuring that they matched the correct part number and were identical to the original fitment.
Please be assured that we do not use substandard parts. We are committed to using genuine Mercedes-Benz parts for all our repairs, and we take great pride in maintaining high standards for our customers. This was an exceptional case; otherwise, your vehicle would have remained in our workshop for an unknown amount of MONTHS until the original parts were available.
We understand that issues arose after the installation, and we regret that the franchised agents encountered the same supply issues leading to further delays. However as requested in our communications, You have been unable to provide proof of invoices to show if indeed the units were replaced. We take all customers complaints seriously, however your review is slanderous and not least economic with the facts, to which we reserve all rights.

Poor customer service

I had my Mercedes B Class serviced on the 17th of July, I was informed I had to pay for the service even though I informed them straight away I had a service plan in place with Mercedes.
I have emailed and called on numerous occasions with no response or no one answering the service desk. Nearly one month on and I still have not resolved the issue.

I would not recommend any purchases or services with this company if this is their standard of care to customers.

In response: The Facts
Customer booked the car authorising a service to be carried out which we duly did. Enclosed is a copy of the customers e mail acknowledging the error.

a) After the service had been completed she realised she had a service plan with the franchised agents, NOT our fault

b) Contrary to advice from the dealer we are not obliged to refund any money we have done the work as requested,

c) If the customer has the benefit of a service plan included in the sale of the vehicle then the customer is responsible for organising and maintaining the car according to the documents provided, we cannot be held accountable if customers do not inform they have a service plan elsewhere, or indeed are not capable of booking the service with the underwriters of the plan they have purchased.

Whilst we take all customer complaints seriously this review is misguided, incorrect and at best economic of the facts.

I highly recommend this dealership

I highly recommend this dealership! We purchased a Mercedes CLA 200 AMG, and Vishnu from the sales team managed our experience wonderfully. He was incredibly helpful, always greeted us with a smile, and made us feel like valued customers with his positive, can-do attitude.

The atmosphere at Inchcape was welcoming, and the entire sales process was smooth and pressure-free. Their aftersales service is outstanding as well, with consistent follow-ups to ensure our satisfaction. I give Mercedes Inchcape a 5-star rating for their excellent customer service. Best wishes to the entire team!

Greeted by Lilly Seddon after booking my cat in for a recall. Great communication, looked after me straight away, answered all question. Service with a smile.

This review does not relate to MB Nottingham and is being removed.
This review relates to the franchised dealer Inchcape Mercedes-Benz of Nottingham.
One more reason why MB Nottingham now two decades established enjoys an enviable reputation as the only credible alternative to dealer prices.
