Motortrustuk Lancaster レビュー 

A fantastic experience from start to finish. Aidan was extremely professional and explained everything really well, making the whole process clear and stress-free. I felt listened to, informed, and in very capable hands. Highly recommend

Got my last car here, very professional outfit. Was helped by a lad called Aidan, seemed a little timid but knew his cars and I appreciated his input. Overall great experience, would recommend.

Had a great all round experience, topped off by Aiden, 100% would recommend

Caution advised…
The salesperson (Connor) provided false information regarding the vehicle's previous ownership and history. I travelled 330 miles to view the car, only to discover that the front tyres had not been replaced, despite previous MOT advisories indicating they were close to illegal.
Additionally, the vehicle had an outstanding manufacturer recall that was going to be supposedly investigated, but no action had been taken. When I requested to see the independent AA vehicle report, the dealership declined to provide it.
To make matters worse, the Sales Manager refused to speak with me, despite the fact I had spent over 6 hours of my day and travelled a considerable distance to view the vehicle.
Finally, despite being assured that my £500 deposit would be refunded within 3–5 working days, it took two weeks and multiple follow-ups calls to get it returned

Saw a car we wanted went to have a look but had to book a test drive as they couldn’t get the car out for us. Went back to test drive and asked them to value our car. Agreed a price and paid a deposit arrange a date to collect car. Before collecting we tried to contact to confirm the 3 year warranty, emailed and called and eventually got a response but was a week later. Had to change collection fat from the Wednesday to the weekend due to work so this gave them over 10 days to prepare the car. We had a time booked for collection and we turned up on time. Had to wait 15 mins to see the salesman, to then be told the car wasn’t ready as their valeted hasn’t turned up?! Surely this should have been completed well before the morning of the collection. Why couldn’t they have called to let us know. We could have arranged our day around this. So we had to come back later this afternoon. No apology. Went back and picked up car and immediately had to get fuel as we would not have got anywhere. We have bought many cars over the years and this is the worst customer service experience we have ever had. I would not recommend this garage to buy a car. Go elsewhere. When spending so much money we expect some level of customer service but unfortunately it was non existent.

I would seriously suggest anyone buying or anyone who has previously bought a car from here to check of any remedial works have actually been carried out. We waited 6 weeks for work to be carried out. When an email was sent to Craig threatening to pull out the car was miraculously ready for us to collect. I had my doubts as I had visited the garage the car was supposedly being done at and it was clear the work needed had not been carried out. I have videos and photos that prove this.

When we went to collect the car, Craig was sat in his office and refused to see us, instead he had another member of staff who was not aware of the situation deal with us. The poor guy had to keep going backwards and forwards between us and Craig, this could have been solved quicker had Craig actually come out of his office and dealt with our questions himself. We asked for proof that the work had been undertaken before we took the car. This could not be provided so Craig emailed me a list of work that had supposedly been done. Stating that the timing chain had been 'cleaned' and not changed. When I questioned this, he then emailed to say that the timing chain had been changed and he 'forgot' to add it on the previous email. I then suggested a compromise for our own peace of mind that if we were to take the car to an independent garage and if it turned out the timing chain had not been changed, would they be happy to change it. Craig then said that they would only change the timing chain if it failed. I double checked that I had heard right and they could not confirm the work had been done. He got very annoyed at being caught out lying.

We are now left without a car thanks to Craig and his lack of honesty.

I ordered a motor vehicle and asked for works to be done on the Tuesday for me to collect on Saturday. Got a call on Friday everything was on track just some valeting required. I traveled some 300 odd miles, got there around lunchtime. When I went to view the vehicle it still had the same problem with an oil light still being on and low tyre inflation warning. I was told that the light would only go out after 100 miles. I wasn’t happy with that prognosis. My limited knowledge tells me that was a sensor. They then said drive it away and they would pay for it to go into a Mitsubishi garage. Not a chance, I’m not firstly buying something that is not 100% and then also running around fixing a problem the garage should have done. I wasn’t best pleased, I don’t recommend this outlet!

put in a part ex valuation online request twice against a car they have and a week later still no response
It states view your configuration but it says awaiting valuation
I'll be taking my business elsewhere

My experience with Lancaster Motortrust…
My experience with Lancaster Motortrust was so frustrating that I feel compelled to warn others.
From the outset, the advertised warranty was misleading. I was led to believe the car came with full warranty coverage, only to be told I had to pay extra to get what was originally promised. That was just the beginning.
I also had to pay for vehicle delivery, despite the listing suggesting it was included. Another case of false advertising.
There was a scratch on the alloy which I was promised a repair, but was later told the only technician was off sick. Instead, I was offered £50—barely enough to cover a proper repair.
To make matters worse:
The car arrived without floor mats.
On day one, I noticed an engine leak. A mechanic confirmed it was serious—essentially, the car was ruined.
When I contacted Lancaster, the manager was rude, and another salesperson was equally dismissive.
They refused to pay for the car’s collection, even though it was faulty.
I was even lied to—told the manager was on holiday when I tried to return the car.
Eventually, I was able to reject the car under the Distance Selling Regulations and received my money back. But the process was unnecessarily stressful, dishonest, and unprofessional.
I would strongly caution anyone considering buying from Lancaster Motortrusr. My experience was riddled with misleading claims, poor customer service, and a lack of accountability.

Dreadful experience with this company. Everything that is wrong with a used car dealership. The phrase 'how do you know when a used car dealer is lying to you? His lips are moving' could have been coined here. Bought a second hand BMW which took 4 days to 'prepare' and was still 2 hours later than the arranged pick up time and it had a thimble full of petrol in it. We were told the vehicle had been taxed that morning but that was the first lie. It hadn't. Luckily we checked with DVLA to be told no the vehicle has not been taxed. Called dealership to be assured it had been taxed and it takes longer to come through? Then told they had sent a cheque for payment to the post office and a receipt would be sent through by email. Guess what? That didn't happen. Numerous calls to dealership to speak to the manager resulted in 'he's stuck on the M6'or 'he's in a meeting' or 'he's interviewing staff'.
10 days later after calling the dealership daily(still haven't spoken to the elusive manager) a receipt was sent for the payment of the vehicle tax. Avoid at all costs.

Bought a car March 2025
Salesman never bothered to sent papers to DVLA
Never bothered to register the car for the 1 year warranty
Everything I call the manager is busy
A salesman finally said he'll do the paperwork
And didn't do it
If there was a minus points..they deserve it
Worst garage ever!

Called about a BMW I was interested in and asked about tyre condition etc . The salesman told me there was a £200 admin charge on a cash sale and they would need several days to get the car ready .
It says on their website that
“THERE ARE NO ADMIN FEES “.
The car has an MOT over 6 months so I should be able to pick it up .I asked to speak to the manager about the above points and was told “ he’s too busy to talk to you , put it in an email “ and hung up .
Update - I managed to stay focused and emailed the branch general manager. He understood my points and waved the admin fee . So we will go up to 4 stars and if all goes well then 5 stars .

Rang 7 days ago about a vehicle, Mitsubishi ASX priced at £12700, I noticed a few days later at £12200. Ok great reduced, looked today it is £13200.
Called this morning Via online, operator said would get back to me, re called Via same medium this afternoon and left full details again, still no contact.
Perhaps I should give them a miss ????

Update, 14/07/25 - still no contact. Had mail from a salesman, saying couldn't get through to me, maybe a mistake on my behalf, re sent my contact details, still nothing. Had finance in place, guess they don't want to sell cars
Called Friday 18.07.25, salesman on day off, no problem, colleague took my number and said Nathan would call following day, Sat 19.07.25. Its now Sunday 20.07.25 still no call, I really liked the car, their loss, have placed a deposit on another vehicle at a rival dealership.
Really cannot understand Nathan's attitude or their sales manager.

first of all, motor trust lancaster is not the first company I want to go for. but when I heard about the dealership that I want to get the car and heard bad review about it I look on different site and find motor trust with good reviews. So I call the company and CARL is there. he is to very friendly and accommodation. no pressure at all and no hard selling just pure help. and remember we do it on the phone never saw the car only in picture. carl help me to process everything from the cheapest APR we can get and good finance company and from the car that I want. every time I call and need help carl is there with welcoming voice. also the team of team motor trust lancaster is good. I got my perfect car with good condition and hopefully dont have problem in few month and years. motor trust had wonderful cars to offer with AA approved check and trust worthy agent and cars. you never go wrong with motortrust lancaster. I just had my car yesterday and they do deliver it. the guy who deliver the car also take care of it nicely. (sorry forgot the name) but he is so nice and warming. so go with motor trust lancaster.

Absolutely appalling Comunications, never called us when they said they would. Turned up to pick the car up and had to wait nearly 2 hours as car was still being prepared. They could have phoned us beforehand and told us to turn up later as we had an hour and half drive. couldn’t tax the car as they could not find the v5 log book. Said the car had been serviced by there garage but could not provide evidence other than a scrap bit of paper that my 11 year old grandson could have done a better job printing…..they said the car would have a new MOT on it which never happened . I voiced my concern about an oil leak picked up as an advisory on the previous mot. Expressed my concern about the clutch being very high. All these things were supposed to be looked at when it was ‘being serviced’ There was a mark on the headlight that they said they would sort … we would not buy from them again based on there level of service. There was no hand over other than here’s the key the car is outside. We would have bought from HPL Preston who are absolutely brilliant but didn’t have the car my granddaughter had got her heart set on.

Excellent service, as I was unable to view the car the deal was done over the phone with my car being part exchanged Aidan was very helpful and talked me through everything including home delivery and pickup of my old car. I am very pleased with the new car and would highly recommend them as a good and honest dealership

I recently purchased at the Lancaster branch where I was first greeted with a very warm handshake from Louis. We ended with a hug.

The service from start to finish was absolutely exceptional and would recommend Louis to anyone. Informative, friendly and just all round sublime customer service. Will be back!

Amazing, helpful and professional service.
Aidan was fantastic!

Absolutely amazing service from Louis, would recommend to anyone. Thanks again.

Louis was very helpful and informational when buying a car
