Wouldn’t buy another van from them
Bought a caravan from Northampton branch , 12 months warrant they said bring it back if you had a problems they would fix it under the warranty, the gas oven flame wasn’t right , when you turned the gas up it didn’t increase the flame also on the grill , they fixed it , and produce us with a bill ! Said we had gone over a pot hole , but they changed the gas adaptor in the front ,and had the oven out didn’ ring before hand just went ahead and fixed and charged us , the lock in the door was very stiff barrel came slightly out when you took the key out , said they fixed it , they haven’t . Gave us a 2nd key that didn’t fit any lockers or door. Back break light never worked wanted to charge us for a whole unit . Our experience has not been a great one . First time with the Spinney and our last . Would not buy a caravan from there again, there happy to sell you a van but not look after you after sales .This is not our 1st van been caravan if for 35 years never been treated as bad as they have . There after sales is rubbish

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you remain disappointed with your experience.
Having reviewed the work carried out, we'd like to provide some clarification. The original issue with the oven was caused by low gas pressure, and we replaced both the faulty gas regulator and the gas shut-off valve under your warranty. These repairs did not require the oven to be dismantled.
Before any work was carried out, our technician identified that the oven frame had collapsed due to multiple broken rivets. This is not a fault that would occur through normal use. We contacted you while your caravan was in our workshop to explain the issue, and, following that conversation, you agreed to the additional 1.5 hours of labour required to remove, strip down and repair the oven.
Regarding the spare key, the replacement supplied by our Sales team was the correct key number. When we inspected it, we found it had not been finished correctly during manufacture. We adjusted it, tested it in all the locks, and confirmed it was working correctly before the caravan was returned.
With regard to the brake light, this is a sealed LED light cluster. Unfortunately, this type of component is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty. However, after discussing the matter with you, we supplied and fitted a good used replacement light cluster free of charge as a gesture of goodwill.
We're sorry that, despite these efforts, you have been left with a negative impression of our aftersales service. We always aim to resolve issues fairly and transparently, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Thank you Sue .
Had a problem with our caravan door lock which needed to be fixed urgently as we were due to be going away in the van. Spoke to Sue, at Northampton, on reception. She managed to fit us in within a few days.
We took the caravan in and were able to collect it the same day.
Cannot thank Sue enough for her help and friendliness in sorting out our problem so efficiently.
She is the sort of "front of house" person that can only give Spinney Northampton a good name.

Just brilliant!
Just brilliant!. We've been regular accessory customers for years, but we picked up our new (to us) motorhome today, and the sales team (special mention to Hannah and Barry for the comprehensive handover), the team in the accessory shop and the general service was excellent. We didn't feel any pressure at all, and every step of the process was handled perfectly. Nicely done everyone 👍

Spinney Warwickshire were excellent…
Spinney Warwickshire were excellent with our recent purchase of a caravan. Alan Blair, in sales, was informative and thorough and made the process of purchase very easy and comfortable. On the day of collection Alan Rumney did our handover. Despite being very seasoned caravanners, and extremely hot weather conditions, he took his time to ensure that every aspect of the caravan was explained fully to us. We have never had such a good handover in all the years that we have bought caravans.
We also had a card issued which gives us 20% off in any of the Spinney shops!
Would thoroughly recommend Spinney Warwickshire, and know from previous experience that the after sales will be good as we have used Spinney Northamptonshire a couple of years ago and have friends who have bought from them recently and praise their after sales, which will be the same across the company.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review and for recommending Spinney Warwickshire!
We're delighted to hear that Alan Blair made your purchase experience informative, straightforward and comfortable. It's also wonderful to know that Alan Rumney delivered such a thorough handover. Receiving praise from experienced caravanners, especially that it was the best handover you've had over many years of caravan ownership, is a real compliment and something we'll be sure to share with him.
We're pleased you're able to make the most of your 20% discount card in our Spinney shops too!
It's especially rewarding to hear that your previous positive experience with our Northamptonshire branch, along with recommendations from friends, gave you the confidence to choose Spinney again. Providing excellent aftersales support across all of our branches is something we take great pride in.
Thank you once again for your kind words. We wish you many happy adventures in your new caravan

After sales follow up abysmal
I bought a 2016 VW California from Spinney, flintshire in mid may. From day 1 there was an exhaust fume smell entering the cabin on engine start up and particularly strong under the nsf wheel arch. After about 300km the engine light came on and shortly afterwards the abs and tyre pressure lights. Reported for resolution within 2 weeks from purchase and delivered back into Spinney custody within 3 weeks. This is well within the timescales of the 2015 consumer rights act and so i expected a timely and efficient resolution of the problems with Spinney choice whether they would seek warranty compensation or not. After an agreed return to me within 10 days, now more then three weeks on, it seems investigations have not been done, its impossible to get an update and a formal e-mail to to the service manager, Charlotte has not been responded to following three business days. The issue of the smell has ample info online in respect to it being a common issue with WV diesel engines and having a relatively simple fix (egr leaks). Spinney have tried to get warranty involved for the ABS sensor but zero update. The almost structural lack of feedback, response and inaction is impressive, unacceptable and in my case seems to be becoming non compliant with the law. Do not go to these people with your hard earned cash. After sales care is at best a total joke.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sincerely sorry to learn that your experience has not met your expectations and appreciate how frustrating the delays and lack of communication have been.
We acknowledge that you reported the concerns with your Volkswagen California promptly after purchase and entrusted us with investigating and resolving them. We also recognise that our communication throughout this process has fallen below the standard we aim to deliver, and for that, we offer our sincere apologies.
To provide some context, your vehicle is currently with our independent repair partner, Jubilee, where repairs to the wheel bearing and ABS sensors are being undertaken. During the warranty claim process, MB&G requested further technical information to support the claim. This information was submitted promptly, and the claim was approved on Wednesday, at which point Jubilee received immediate authorisation to proceed with the repairs.
When you visited our branch yesterday, we contacted Jubilee while you were with us in an effort to obtain an update; however, our call went to voicemail. We understand that you subsequently visited Jubilee directly and were advised that they are currently experiencing staffing shortages, which have delayed your vehicle's return to the workshop despite the necessary authorisation being in place.
Although we have been actively pursuing updates on your behalf, Jubilee operates as an independent repairer and we are unable to influence their workshop scheduling or repair timescales. However, we fully accept that this should not have affected the level of communication you received from us, and we acknowledge that we could have kept you better informed throughout the process.
Following your visit, we contacted Jubilee again to emphasise the urgency of your repair, requested that your vehicle be prioritised wherever possible, and asked that all future correspondence regarding your vehicle is communicated directly to us so that we can provide you with timely and accurate updates.
For clarity, we would also like to note that, in addition to the warranty-related repairs, your vehicle requires the replacement of a shock absorber and a wheel alignment following damage sustained after striking a pothole. These repairs are separate from the warranty claim currently being processed.
We appreciate the constructive conversation we had with you during your visit and your acknowledgement of our efforts to progress the repairs. Please be assured that we remain committed to seeing this matter through to a satisfactory conclusion and returning your vehicle as soon as the outstanding work has been completed.
Thank you once again for your feedback. It has been shared with our management team as part of our ongoing commitment to improving both our communication and customer service.

Spinney (Warwickshire)
Buying a caravan or motorhome is an expensive investment that requires careful thought and planning. A number of visits were made to Spinney in Warwickshire to look at their stock and prices. On each occasion we were never hurried or made unwelcome and a member of staff was always available to help if needed. On the final day we visited Richard Bulmer was available to deal with our questions and to progress an order once a decision was reached. It was not a straightforward matter with many elements but Richard dealt with everything in a calm and professional manner, leading to a price which was acceptable. Advise on available funding sources was given when requested and an introduction made which proved productive. The handover was undertaken by Alan Romney whose experience as a caravan owner and technical knowledge was invaluable and first class. Other staff members who assisted with insurance and service plan advice and assistance delivered a 5 star service hence the above rating.

Swift Conqueror 565 caravan
My wife and I purchased a Swift Conqueror 565.
The sales man (James) was very pleasent. He talked us through various things on the caravan and was very helpful and answered any questions we had.
When we came to collect the caravan, we were introduced Dave who was a nice guy and gave us a very in depth handover making sure we understood how everything worked.
He was patient and answered all our questions.
When we got the caravan home, we had to get it loaded that day as we were going away in it that afternoon.
Whilst loading the caravan we started to notice one or two things that we would have expected to have been put right.
There was only 2 screws holding the slide out rack in the cupboard under the sink and the rack wouldn't slide in and out properly due to the it coming away from the tracks.
The wooden panelling on the front of the bed was coming apart at the corner.
All the locks on the lockers and the rams at the side of the all the windows had been sprayed with WD40, but any excess hadn't been wiped and consequently all of the windows and all of the locks and locker doors have now got greasy streak marks down the side of the caravan.
We we told the caravan would be cleaned. I think that basically means wipe the worktops, hoover the mats and spray some nice air freshener, because the caravan looked nice on the surface, and smelt nice to, but as we started to put things in the drawers and cupboards we found that they hadn't been cleaned at all. There were crumbs, dirty marks and grease marks that we had to clean.
After we were loaded we did have a great weekend away. That said when we got to the place we were stopping at, I went to put the legs down but the winder that fits on the stablizer legs was missing .
Luckily I was able to borrow one to get the legs down.
I reported this to Spinney and they apologised and sent one out to my house by courier.
Generally speaking were are very happy with the caravan and with Spinney, but they just let themselves down on a couple of points. The biggest issue for me was the cleaning. When you are spending that amount of money I would expect it to have be thoroughly cleaned.
All that said, we would like to say thank you to spinney for our new caravan which we really love.
Phill and Caroline.

We completely understand your disappointment, especially when making such an important purchase, and we'll be sharing your comments with our team to help us improve our pre-delivery preparation and quality checks.
We're pleased we were able to quickly resolve the missing winding handle, and we really appreciate your understanding throughout.
David the caravan introduction …
David the caravan introduction specialist was very knowledgeable and provided a very thorough introduction to our new caravan. The only negative aspect of our whole experience with Spinney Caravans was the delivery date. We were originally told our caravan would be ready for collection in mid May, then the end of April, then late May. In the end it wasn’t ready until late June which caused some concern as we booked a holiday using the caravan only a week later, which made it difficult to equip in time. I’d would rather have been told it would be ready later than earlier as this would have given me the opportunity to choice other holiday options this year.

Barry was more than helpful
Barry, our salesman was very helpful in every way he could be. He gave us all the time we needed to go through everything to do with our purchase and we did have a lot of questions as the tech in caravans has increased so much since we had our last one. All the staff involved at the branch were very friendly and helpful including Paul in the spares / sales dept.
We are very grateful to Barry for his friendly and patient support and cannot thank him enough. We wish Barry and the team well and though it is a long way from where we live, it would be nice to keep in touch by having our caravan serviced at his branch.
I do not understand why the Newcastle under Lyme branch is not listed or I would select it.
