Thorughly recommend - George was excellent!

I had an excellent experience with RW Cars, and George was outstanding from start to finish.

He was responsive to my initial enquiry and remained helpful, transparent, and communicative throughout the entire process. George is a genuinely nice guy who made buying the car a smooth and enjoyable experience.

The handover was excellent. Even though he was clearly busy and under pressure, he took the time to make sure everything was covered and never made me feel like I was a burden. His professionalism and customer service really stood out.

There was a small issue with the vehicle when I collected it, but George dealt with it immediately. There was no quibbling or hesitation - he acknowledged the problem, took responsibility, and resolved it straight away without causing me any inconvenience.

I travelled a long way to buy the car, and it was absolutely worth the trip. I'm really pleased with the Volkswagen Tiguan I purchased, which was priced extremely competitively and represents fantastic value.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy from RW Cars again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a quality used car. Thanks again, George!

Highly recommend purchasing from RW Cars

Just purchased Seat Ateca from RW Cars. Mark was my contact he was just wonderful, patient and no hard sell which made my purchase so easy. He gave me space to look around vehicles at my own pace. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he ensured everything was ready on collection day. Mark was an absolute pleasure to deal with so different to other car sales staff I have had dealings with at other showrooms. Would highly highly recommend anyone looking for a change of car. Thanks again Mark

Employee of the year

Stewart was one amazing staff who helped me with buying the care. The patience and guide and the car I got is absolutely fantastic. Thank you Stewrt.

The car itself is a banger. Meaning I loved it so much. A thrill to drive and its just too awesome. My first car after 10 whole years. The only downside to the car is that it doesnt have the back storage as in putting for example drink holders also the boot doesnt automatically close properly you would need to apply force to close it. But I will come back to yourselves or to our mechanic and get that checked.

Thank you again Stewart. Your an awesome employee

Do pop back to us about the boot closing properly and we'll happily take a look for you. Congratulations again on your new motor, and we can't wait to hear about all the adventures ahead. Enjoy every mile!

So far

So far, Josh has been amazing and very accommodating to me, especially as I have had tremendous trouble with Trade Centre UK and other dealers. Josh put me right at ease and was very helpful from the start of the deal.

I can’t recommend RW Cars Derby enough…

I can’t recommend RW Cars Derby enough for their outstanding after-sales service. From start to finish, the experience has been absolutely first class.

A special thank you to Natalie, who was incredibly helpful, professional, and genuinely caring throughout the whole process. She kept me fully informed and made everything smooth and stress-free.

Also, huge credit to the mechanic who dealt with my issue straight away — the level of efficiency and expertise was brilliant. It’s clear the team really takes pride in what they do and goes above and beyond to look after their customers.

It’s not often you come across service like this after a sale, but RW Cars Derby truly delivers. I’ll definitely be recommending them to friends and family without hesitation! Kind regards michael d.
