False sense of security

Car was suppose to be delivered to work place, this was delayed. Car wouldn't be delivered till past 7pm. I offered to collect the car which was agreed. Travelled 40 miles to collect fine.

Once car was collected I noticed the car had a different number plate than I was told it would be, had to change insurance details.

Ask to be reimbursed travel costs and insurance costs. Phoned the dealership was promised a call back and ignored.

Called again to ask if all the correct documents had been sent to the finance company so I could put a personalised numberplate on. Was promised a call back, ignored.

Car was handed over quickly which was fine, as soon as I left the dealership the customer care ended.

Hi Sam,

We are very sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. What you have described is not the level of service we aim to provide.

From our initial investigation, it appears there was some miscommunication and unmet expectations set during the process, particularly around delivery arrangements and compensation.

We fully understand how frustrating this must have been for you - especially after travelling to collect your vehicle and needing to make last-minute changes.

We are currently working closely with the Broker involved to resolve these issues and ensure a fair outcome for you.

We will reach out to you directly once we have reviewed the situation internally and will work on ensuring we are able to prevent similar experiences in the future.

In the meantime, if there is anything further you would like to discuss, please do not hesitate to contact us directly, and we will be happy to assist.

Regards The Partridge Team

Fantastic experience with James and Raj

Fantastic experience with both James and Raj at BMW. James was brilliant during my BMW Genius session for my BMW i4—friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable.

Raj was equally great during the purchase—professional, supportive, and made everything seamless.

Truly outstanding service from start to finish—both are great ambassadors for BMW.

I recently had an excellent experience…

I recently had an excellent experience with James Ratcliffe at Partridge of Hampshire BMW. While I was in Southampton on an orchestral tour, my second hand car that I bought from Arnold Clark 2 weeks ago unexpectedly gave up which I returned, leaving me in a difficult situation.

James stepped in and made the whole process remarkably smooth. He quickly arranged an affordable PCP deal that suited my needs perfectly, taking the time to ensure everything was clear and tailored to my circumstances. His responsiveness and professionalism stood out, and it was clear he genuinely cared about helping rather than just making a sale.

What impressed me most was how he went above and beyond to get me back on the road with minimal stress. His level of service wouldn’t look out of place in a managerial role, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all to see him progress within the company.

Thanks to this experience, I’ll definitely be returning to this dealership for future purchases. Highly recommended.

Great to work with. A very informative visit.

Really excellent! Visited yesterday to view a BMW i3. We made it clear we wouldn’t be buying the car but were hoping to purchase one in the near future. Their salesman Kevin was great. He arranged for an example to be on site for us to view and spent quite some time with us providing a detailed and honest review of the various i3 models. He even provided us with a test drive so we could experience the ride. Really refreshing not to experience high pressure sales. We would have no hesitation dealing with this company. A really great guy doing a great job for his company. Well done and many thanks.

Excellent service and communication from Adriana

I had a great experience dealing with Adriana Sabotinova throughout my car order.
Adriana was consistently professional, responsive, and proactive in keeping me updated on the status of my vehicle, including clear explanations around timings, delivery expectations, and next steps. Communication was always prompt and easy to follow, which made the whole process feel well‑managed and stress‑free.
She was also very patient and thoughtful throughout, checking in at the right times and making the experience feel personal rather than transactional. Even with the usual waiting periods involved in vehicle orders, I always felt informed and confident that things were being handled properly.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Adriana and Partridge BMW to anyone ordering a vehicle – excellent service from start to finish.

My car required repairs following a collision . Eastleigh was the nearest place for me to get this done. They responded very quickly collecting my car from home and delivering the courtesy car . Rhian ( customer service) and BMW repair shop kept me up to date with progress. Really professionally managed by all concerned and now I have my mini back and it looks like new!

Great people at Partridge BMW Eastleigh

The minute we walked into Partridge BMW Eastleigh we were welcomed with lots of smiles and professionalism. A very modern clean and fresh feeling atmosphere.

Obvious fault with window not found and no response from the service department

The car was dropped off at Partridges on the 27th of February with a report of water ingress in the passenger cabin. The water first appeared in the rear right-hand side and then in the front right (driver's footwell). I mentioned that the window did not work in the rear right-hand side and that the vapour barrier may have come away on the inside of the door.

At the point of handoff, Partridges said that the door would be stripped down and investigated for water ingress.

Partridges then stated that water ingress was found to be a perished grommet in the bulkhead. So, the dashboard would need to be removed. During this work it was found that the sound insulation around the heater box had perished and had to be replaced.

Partridges mentioned that no fault was found with the window and that it was initially stiff but worked as expected thereafter.

On receipt of the car and upon getting home and checking the car over, the rear window did not work—the window would only move 2–3mm each time the window control was operated. The inside of the car sounds worse than before; it sounds like there is missing / reduced sound insulation between the engine bay and the driver's cabin.

I contacted Partridges via email on 31st March—no reply. I followed up with a phone call asking to speak with the service contact on the morning of 2nd April, asking for a call back. No reply. I phoned back in the afternoon asking for an update; the person took my details, but I have not received a call back or any response.

The cost of the work was £2.5k+, and I am left with a car with the window still not working, uncertain if the window had been fully tested for water ingress, and with a louder engine noise whilst driving. A disappointing experience—I do not understand why simple customer service principles are not observed by this dealership.

Edit:
16/04/2026
I have downgraded this review from two stars to one. Reason is after getting in touch with the dealership a meeting was scheduled with a customer care representative and a technician to discuss the issues. I visited the dealership to only find that the two representatives were not available at the time.

I will now be progressing by using a company other than Partridge BMW to sort out the issues they created.

Fantastic customer service

Speaking with Adriana from the deliveries team over at Partridge was a sterling experience. I have ordered a company vehicle through a leasing company and was nervous around the frequency of updates on approach to my delivery date. The information, reassurance and transparency that were provided through our interaction with Adriana were second to none. Instantly, any concerns I had were alleviated and was armed more information than I could have hoped to obtain. Thank you so much for the 5* service!
