Status 1 Automotive Ltd

I bought my first car from Status 1 Automotive back in July and what a fantastic car. I received extremely good service and nothing was to much trouble. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a nice car. Thanks for all your hard work guy's 🚗💨😁

I bought a very low mileage immaculate 2016 V8 F Type Jag from them in May this year. Few months later I noticed a slight oil leak on my garage floor. Took the car to Main dealer who diagnosed differential pinion seal leaking (common with garage queen cars that don’t get a lot of use apparently) and mine is 8 years old with only 16k miles. Anyway contacted Nick and after speaking to Phil as I’m 250 miles away, he agreed to pay the main dealer bill. The car was repaired last week with a bill of nearly £650! I cannot fault this independent dealer at all for their service prior to and during the purchase and as you can see from above, even after the purchase. I would happily recommend them to anyone considering buying one of their vehicles. 👍

Excellent experience! Nick and Phil were very helpful, informative and friendly. A really relaxed atmosphere unlike some of the other dealers we went to. Nothing too much trouble. Super happy with the purchase of my Ferrari California.

Just bought myself a G82 m4 through status one and I couldn’t be happier! After going to numerous other well known dealers and leaving disappointed I saw the M4 status had for sale and made the journey over and was not disappointed! All the cars in stock are immaculate and the staff were very welcoming especially nick who I dealt with through the entire process! I would definitely recommend they were very professional and bring back the excitement that buying a new car should have! Thank you guys!!

AVOID!!! I have never been so appalled by a company in my life! They told me to reserve the car that I was interested in, to ensure it was off the market. I did this and was on my way there from the other side of Manchester. Before I even got there they informed me that they had sold the car. I spoke to a man called ‘Nick’ a week prior to express my interest in the car. He said I was unable to reserve the car at that time, as it was currently being used as a courtesy car. He told me it would be back in the showroom Monday afternoon. By Monday afternoon, I told him I would come to view the car and put down my deposit. He agreed and said I would be the first to view the car once it was back in the showroom. 5 minutes before I left, he called me to say that someone else was on their way to view it. He said if you want it, you need to reserve it asap. So I did. When I was 15 minutes away, he called me back and said don’t bother coming the car has been sold. I asked him how can you sell a car when I have just paid to reserve it? He tried to backtrack and say that he told me NOT to reserve it. He continued to repeat this until I reminded him that the previous phone call was recorded. He will be able to listen to it as all their calls are supposedly recorded. He realised this and suddenly started apologising, but this isn’t the point. This company is unprofessional and unreliable. They have quite rightly refunded my money.
