I recently collected my new Cupra…Excellent service

I recently collected my new Cupra Formentor through the Motability Scheme, and I wanted to thank Fitz for making what could have been a very difficult experience so much easier.

After my accident, I found change quite challenging. Before the accident, I drove an Audi A6 and loved larger cars. Moving to an Audi A3 through Motability was already a big adjustment, and when Audi stopped offering Motability vehicles, I was understandably anxious about having to find something new.

I did a lot of research looking for a car that would give me a similar feel and level of comfort, which eventually led me to Cupra. From the moment I met Fitz, he was welcoming, patient, and understanding. I explained that I struggle with change and was nervous about choosing a different car. Rather than rushing me, he took the time to listen carefully and talk me through the different models available, helping me understand which options might suit my needs best.

What stood out most was that Fitz made me feel I could trust him. He listened to what was important to me and genuinely wanted to help me find the right car, not just make a sale. Thanks to his guidance, I surprisingly made my decision quite quickly and chose a Cupra Formentor.

I absolutely love the car. Although handing back my Audi A3 felt a little like a funeral and was quite an emotional moment, Fitz made the transition much easier and gave me confidence that I was making the right choice.

Thank you, Fitz, for your patience, understanding, professionalism, and excellent customer service. I would highly recommend both Fitz and the Cupra team to anyone looking for a new car.

Outstanding Service - 10/10

I recently part-exchanged my vehicle with Vertu SEAT Derby and purchased a car they had for sale. From my very first point of contact right through to completing the sale, the whole experience was excellent.

The team were professional, friendly, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. A special mention goes to Josh, who was outstanding throughout. He was knowledgeable, helpful, and always available to answer any questions I had. His customer service was first-class and made me feel valued every step of the way.

I'd also like to thank Ryan and Tom, who were both very helpful and contributed to making the experience such a positive one. Their support, professionalism, and willingness to help were greatly appreciated.

I would highly recommend Vertu SEAT Derby to anyone looking to buy or part-exchange a vehicle. Excellent service from start to finish.

Absolutely recommend!

I recently purchased a used car from Vertu Cupra Derby, and the experience was absolutely fantastic from start to finish.

A special thank you to Ben, who was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, taking the time to answer all my questions and making sure I felt completely comfortable with every step of the purchase. There was never any pressure, just genuine advice and excellent customer service.

After months of looking for a car he made it a smooth and enjoyable experience. Everything was handled efficiently, communication was excellent, and the car was presented in immaculate condition when I collected it.

I'm absolutely thrilled with my new car and couldn't be happier with the service I received. I would highly recommend Vertu Cupra Derby to anyone looking for a hassle-free car-buying experience. Thanks again to Ben and the team for going above and beyond!

Found my PERFECT CAR

I was looking for a new car & saw one online on the SEAT Derby website.
The whole experience from the first phone call to actually meeting in person & test driving the car was nothing other than AMAZNG, I want to say a big thank you to Andrew Lawrence who was my sales assistant, nothing but professional & knowledge about the products they offer. (He knows his stuff) I found my perfect car & I can’t thank you enough 😊would t hesitate to recommend VERTU to anyone 5* service.

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.
