Drayton Motors  Reviews 

When I wanted a new car having looked around I went to Wilson & Co. My experience at Wilson & Co Scunthorpe was cracking because Raggi Singh arranged a test drive for me and when I asked him to find me a suitable vehicle he did so. There was no pressure no excessive selling he simply explained everything I needed to know about the vehicle and managed to find one that exactly matched what I wanted. I felt that he was really helpful. All the warranty and possible cover was explained very well and I had time to think about what I wanted. I am delighted with the car.I also feel that should I have any issues I can easily contact Raggi for advice so all in all a great experience. So I have been driving my Mokka now for a couple months and I have to say it doesn't disappoint. It's a super smooth drive plenty poke when I need it and feels pretty quality inside. Last week I spotted a small shark inscribed on the coin area! There's a story behind that !

The vehicle I purchased was a used van and almost new in condition. We were highly delighted when we collected it and the whole sales process. One small negative. The valet slightly let down the experience, it looked as though it had been rushed and some of the polish hadn’t been removed.

"My experience at Wilson & Co Bolton was memorable because the 2 sales people were very helpful and knowledgeable"

Apart from the finance broker company having a few hiccups the whole process was relatively fast. Mustafa got me on the road quickly he rang back when he said he would and kept in touch

Bought a car that is not even 3 years old. Was supposed to have been serviced in March less than 24 hours later I had a major oil leak. Multiple other issues as well. Took out extended warranty and service plan which I want to cancel within the 14 day cooling off period and despite phone calls and online chat messages no response. I will NOT be buying a car from them ever again

Stay clear of this company!!! Bought a car back in January. Was promised a spare key and FSH to be sent shortly after receiving the car. But once I paid, the service went from great to shocking. All promises were refused and when I tried to contact them (many many times) they never got back to me. There is nothing worse than a company that breaks promises once you've paid. I paid £10k for a car, but they weren't willing to pay the £250 for the key despite their promises beforehand. I even advised them that I would write this review if they didn't at least get back to me. Ignored. Terrible service.

It was quick and easy to deal with them and it was a quiet dealership too so I was never waiting around for long

Response: I was sold a vehicle that was ex salvage Jason. Whether it has cosmetic damage or not it was agreed that the vehicle would be bought back at a price that reflected it's value minus the salvage marker. I'll look forward to taking money back from you and warn everyone about your business.

Was sold a 68 plate Astra in 2020 at market value which was HPI clear. Upon trying to sell it online 4 years later I was notified that the car is ex-salvage and so not worth anywhere near what it should have been. The car has only had 1 previous owner so it's incredibly unlikely that Wilson & Co. couldn't have known about it. Went back to the garage to try and sort it out, spoke to Darren who suggested they would buy it back at market value. Drove from Leeds to Scunthorpe for a sales manager to tell me it had too many scratches and they didn't want it. Webuy valued the car at £5800 in that exact condition until they found the salvage marker which took it down to £2500. In the process of finalising the small claims court application. Have a copy of all correspondence right back to the first interactions. Essentially lost over 3K thanks to them.

Do not buy from Wilson and co. If you do, pay for a full V check as they sell ex-salvage.

I have just bought a car from Wilson & Co Scuntorpe
Raggi was excellent ,very helpful throughout, I received videos of the car which was very good ,very patient when I could not sign the documents online !,I did manage them in the end ,even Stuart? who delivered the car was very good ,explained about things on the car .
Excellent sales department, would highly recommend.

Horrendous service from start to finish with Wilson and Co Bolton. My lease vehicle was in with them for a service in March, and it was identified that it needed a new welt belt. No one could confirm if I could or could not drive the car, but the car felt horrendous to drive, and as I drive over 100 miles a day I didn’t have faith the wet belt wasn’t going to snap.

When agreeing to perform the repairs under warranty, I was told it may be 6 months for the parts to arrive. Luckily they arrived much sooner, but then you could not make an appointment until May. You told me the work would take 2 days, still wouldn’t confirm if it was safe to drive the car, but told me I could have a courtesy car at the cost of £15 a day for the 2 days it would be in the garage. You could only provide electric cars, with no capability to charge at home, and with the amount of mileage I cover this would not work for me.

I contacted my lease company who managed to source me a courtesy car via enterprise as their team confirmed it was UNSAFE for me to be driving when the wet belt was cracked and the car went in for repair on 6th May. “2 days” turned into a week, which turned into 2 weeks, and so it continued. I rang constantly, for the phone either to never be answered, be left on hold for long periods of time, to be promised call backs that NEVER came, and each day be told my car would be ready for the next day (which also never happened).

You had my vehicle for just over 4 weeks in total. You never told me what work was ACTUALLY done, just handed me my keys and that was that. Apparently the car was cleaned - not the case either.

I understand that it may have turned into a bigger job than expected and that wasn’t an issue, but your lack of communication is horrific. If it’s not ready it’s not ready, don’t lie and say it will be when you know it won’t be.

Now, my clutch is in a state that it wasn’t in before. Stiff and heavy, no bite point, and fighting to drive it. You seem to cause more damage than fixing anything.

You can’t even stamp a service book, so I’m not sure why I expected you to be competent with this either. The worst of the whole experience is not a single person in the Bolton branch cares.

worst customer service I have experienced
just lied about the problem from day 1
said the auto braking (AEB),was working when it wasn't and would not prove to me that is was just come up with some bull report never again would i by from them stay away just lies after lies from staff to top management

great salesman

I purchased a VW Golf from Wilson & Co Grimsby in March 2025 and the experience has been nothing short of disgraceful.

The car was falsely advertised as “pristine” by sales manager Bailey, but when I received it, it had obvious swirl marks, scratches and stone chips to the bonnet, and cosmetic issues that had clearly been neglected. I was promised — both verbally and in writing — a full bonnet respray and touch up repairs to all panels required. Despite the car being booked in for this work, it was rushed out unfinished, and the visible defects remained.

Worse still, I was misled by the Sales Manager, Bailey, who admitted in a message that the car was rushed to meet sales targets, and then later denied it. When I raised this with the dealership, I was met with total indifference and arrogance.

As a 19-year-old customer, I was treated with complete disrespect throughout. It was clear they thought they could fob me off and that I wouldn’t stand up for myself — which makes this even more disappointing. Rather than honouring their promises, sales managers Mark and Ryan tried to intimidate me, even threatening to cancel the insurance on the courtesy car while the dispute was ongoing. That’s coercive and unacceptable.

To make it worse, I purchased the car through a distance sale, paid upfront without even seeing it in person, based entirely on their assurances — which were clearly false.

I'm now fully prepared to take this to the Motor Ombudsman, Trading Standards, and pursue any necessary legal channels under my rights as a consumer.

If you’re a young buyer, or just expect honesty and professionalism, avoid Wilson & Co Grimsby at all costs.

Took my car to be serviced and a couple of repairs and was told I could wait. The service and extra repairs ended up taking two days (which I suppose is fair enough, they needed to get parts etc) but after two days and emptying my bank account they haven’t fixed the thing I asked for them to fix TWICE! Absolute joke.

Bailey Paton was the sales person that guide me through the purchase and offered an excellent attention and service.

Great people, very helpfull, patient.

Avoid the Bolton Vauxhall Branch.
In fact avoid all together.

2 cars were offered to us and and then were either already sold or then sold despite us having a meeting to come and buy it.
They called me to say it was a special deal after the hassle of being offered a sold car last time.
I took time out of work as did my husband to go and buy the car to be told rather bluntly by the advisor she had sold it the day before. I have since put in a complaint following their complaints procedure it says they will respond in 48 hours… this was weeks ago.

Very helpful staff, friendly and professional with no high pressure sales tactics. They made trading in my old car and picking up the new one as easy as it could be. Car was very well presented.

Matthew was my initial contact, he offered to get the keys for me to view inside the car, he then offered me a test drive. I went back with my partner the following day so he could view the vehicle. Matthew was polite and went though everything with me. I opted to take out the service plan with them. I was happy with the service received and would recommend this dealer

Brilliant service, all staff very welcoming
Fab communication between myself and Tom
Tom was very friendly and easy going which made the process of purchasing a new car enjoyable
Thank you so much
