Review of Big Motoring World - Cannock


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Oh dear!!

Oh dear - just bought a Kia Sportage from BGM and when I got home noticed the rear parcel shelf (that hides all your luggage etc) was not present!! Upon contacting the Cannock site was told that all cars are "sold as seen" - despite their boast of quality that they "check, check, and check again" - and that I had not noticed the lack of parcel shelf (ie my fault!). The sales force acknowledged that they knew of the lack of parcel shelf, but failed to mention it during the 6 1/2 hrs I was there. Their celebrated "200 point check" also failed to show that the shelf was missing! Avoid, avoid, avoid, unless you are absolutely sure you can verify EVERYTHING about the car personally - do not rely on the 200 point check or assurances from the sales force - you are buying a car "sold as seen", rather like a back street garage!!

Hi Steven,

We apologise for your disappointment with us.

Unfortunately, some of our vehicles are not supplied to us with a parcel shelf. If a vehicle is supplied to us without non-essential items such as this, we would not look to replace these. The reason for this is to keep our preparation costs as low as possible, which allows us to pass on the best possible savings to our customers.

We apologise for any disappointment that may have been caused.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World
