I took my car in for service today. I really enjoyed how polite and courteous they were, and at the same time, very professional. I really liked them and will definitely remain their customer.

Unable to give zero stars.Purchased a brand new 3303 M Sport Estate on March 27th '26.On 1st May the vehicle died by the roadside with 12 faults, including drive train, driver assistance, hybrid system, battery terminal faults.Vehicle was recovered back to Colchester BMW and after 2 weeks of very little communication and constant promises of calls back from the dealership I was advised the fault was fixed. On collection I asked for full details on what had been resolved and asked for more evidence which could not be provided.6 days later on 19th May '26 the vehicle died at the roadside with the same faults as before. Again recovered back to Colchester BMW. At this point I formally rejected the vehicle.Almost 8 weeks later now and with constant escalation, near daily, to BMW Customer Services and to Group 1 at Colchester I have still not received my refund.The vehicle has been repaired, as I can track it on the app, and I can see it has been being used by a BMW colleague to commute to work.I have so far lost the total deposit I paid and 3 subsequent finance payments on a vehicle I do not have.Escalated again today to BMW Customer Complaints.

We had an excellent experience purchasing our BMW from Dylan at Group 1 BMW Colchester. From the very beginning, he was professional, friendly, and never made us feel pressured. We would highly recommend Dylan and the team at Group 1 BMW Colchester to anyone looking to buy a BMW.
