I’ve just bought another car, a well specced Mini Cooper classic, from Mini Colchester. Tamara was so efficient and friendly (yet again), making the purchase a real pleasure!

From start to finish the whole experience was excellent. I felt genuinely looked after. Everything was explained clearly and thoroughly. Amelia was knowledgeable, approachable and incredibly patient with all my questions. Nothing was too much trouble, and she made sure I was completely comfortable with every detail before moving on. It’s rare to feel both excited and completely at ease when making a purchase like this, but that’s exactly how I felt. Thank you.

We called into the Colchester Showroom as we were interested in purchasing an electric vehicle and were warmly greeted by Tamara. She immediately offered us a hot drink and with enormous patience explained in great detail all of our options, arranging for us to look at the various models available and organising a test drive. Tamara is such an asset to this Company, she is incredibly friendly, utterly professional and her customer service skills are exemplary, thanks for all your help Tamara.

Great experience test driving a Countryman Ev. Tamara was brilliant. I have test driven a few different EVs recently and Mini was by far the best for customer care and attention. Other dealerships have a long way to go to match Tamara at Mini.

I arranged an appointment to view cars at the Colchester branch, with the hope of purchasing a mini as I needed a newer reliable economical vehicle. I was greeted by Charlie who was given my personal list of what I wanted (value for money, convertible, black paintwork, and good condition). Charlie along with his politeness found exactly what I was looking for, we went on a test drive, being a female alone I felt totally at ease and any questions answered. The following week I went and collected my new car, paperwork completed and keys in hand. Thank you so much Charlie and team (ps the latte and hot chocolate from the machine lovely finishing touch when sat chatting 😉) x
