Very. Due to Jamie who not only sold me my car but insured everything run smoothly. Jamie Kinloch was very knowledgable, gave me options on different cars. Test drives were great Communication was strong even though I had slight delivery delay.
30 April 2025
No problems was a smooth transaction
23 April 2025
We picked up the car and the extra items we ordered were not already in the car for us. The parts dept didn't know where they were even though we had been told they were ready to be picked up. It took 2 more visits to get our items. Poor service.

08 June 2025
Everyone was friendly, helpful and informative.
08 June 2025
Bent over backwards, found myself in a difficult situation re last day of mot, works needed etc, gave me a loan car and got me back on the road quickly. Only negative was the WiFi was barely fast enough to establish a connection on my work laptop.
07 June 2025
Very professional
07 June 2025
Everything very good on my visit
06 June 2025
They deal with the problem well.
05 June 2025
Completed in less time than stated
03 June 2025
Paperwork and video helped
03 June 2025
Because of the above. It's a bit of pattern I'm afraid. VAT charged twice on replacement tires, a minor paint repair not carried out by body shop as agreed, but by two of the service staff. Done so badly I had to take the car elsewhere.
02 June 2025
Kept me informed what was going on
02 June 2025
All good thank yiu
01 June 2025
I have no complaints of any kind
01 June 2025
As above Emil (5*). The main issue is the lack of coordination between dealership, BMW Assist , our car service provider and most importantly myself. Happy to go into details on this
31 May 2025
As above
29 May 2025

24 May 2025
I found the whole experience straightforward and everything was explained at every step.
24 May 2025
Without having to chase, I was kept informed with text updates during the day confirming the stage of the re-call and vehicle check. The video report was unexpected as other dealerships had only provided photo evidence of the vehicle.
24 May 2025
Service went quite well couldn't be given a time before hand when it would be completed was given a time of up to 18 00. It was completed about mid day but a better approx completion time would have been Helpful
24 May 2025
See above. Hire car easily arranged and given discount.

A
18 May 2025
As above, every point of contact was fab. Car feels loads better to drive. Seemless process.
17 May 2025
My car was in for some recall work which was carried out quickly and efficiently. A condition survey was also carried out which was welcome, and the car washed which was a nice touch.
16 May 2025
I had two new tyres fitted. A few minutes after leaving the garage the tyre pressure indicator came on. They had only been inflated to 30 psi, not close to the 43 PSI required.
16 May 2025
The actual work and fact that I got an exact loan car to my car was nice. Ask for the complementary car wash and vacuum and although cleared car ready for this it wasnt done.
15 May 2025
Charlie the advisor was helpful and offered updates as my car took longer than expected for a map update. Overall happy as I could work from the showroom area premises.

Repair service was good. I was given an electric hire car with only 48 miles charge and no means of charging at home. It was fortunate that I had another car at home to use as I didn't have time to sit at a charging point.
09 May 2025
Emil and Charlie were patient and helpful
08 May 2025
Again, Luke's customer service.
08 May 2025
We gave my wives number and email to contact when the car was ready as i was in Canada but they still only contacted me
07 May 2025
Dropping off, service video and pick up was brilliant. Unfortunately, despite my car being spotless and recently polished, it was poorly washed, which i didn't request, and I had to spend 3hrs that night returning the car back to pre service cond.
07 May 2025
Communication wasn't good. My care was in for a small recall. Not sure was it took so long before it was attended to. Dropped it at 0830, only got it back at close of day after 5pm.
06 May 2025
When I received my car back it had been cleaned which enhanced the service experience.
04 May 2025
Same as previous answer
04 May 2025
Quick turn around, couple of silly technical issues dealt with really quickly and with no hassle caused to me.

22 April 2025
My car came in for 3 days to get paintwork done and they hadn't done it when I picked it up. I rang 3 times to be told someone would ring me that day and they never did. After calling for the 4th time I then find out the wrong side had been painted
20 April 2025
Even though I had a small issue the response and helpfulness was excellent.
19 April 2025
Friendly warm welcoming staff such as Abby made me feel at ease. Yes I waited for the work and was kept well relaxed and informed whilst there.

16 April 2025
Even though they asked if I wanted my car washed, which I agreed my car was given back to me same way I dropped it off!! Very bad !!!
16 April 2025
Easy and simple
15 April 2025
Your receptionist, Abby, was particularly pleasant and very helpful.
15 April 2025
Good, the only feedback was that I didn't get a call for when my car was ready for collection which I was told I would get. I did get an email, but you don't always look at emails!
15 April 2025
Mike always makes a service visit easy.

Fast efficient as I was waiting while my oil service was done
10 April 2025
Everything required was completed satisfactorily. Abby was friendly in her approach, happy to answer any questions and responded to a secondary issue swiftly.
10 April 2025
All good. I was offered a loan car which I've only just realised I paid for! I thought it was a courtesy vehicle and I'm a tad surprised it was charged for on a £680 service bill. At no time was I told I'd be paying for it.
10 April 2025
Friendly and professional customer service, neat work by the service team
10 April 2025
Kept informed and happy with the service information and receptionist

09 April 2025
Job well done on time
08 April 2025
Car was valeted after service standard was poor. Car was still dirty in areas and when I delivered my vehicle it was already quite clean
08 April 2025
Not being confirmed of approximate total price of replacement battery list a star.
07 April 2025
Difficult to get through on the phone, unclear where to take the car for service - showroom or garage area. No obvious system of waiting to speak to a service agent, be useful if they noted who had come in first, second, third, etc rather than asking
06 April 2025
Service completed ahead of time
06 April 2025
Listened carefully to my concerns and dealt with the problem with the sensor issue that came up with the car
05 April 2025
Prompt attention & support during diagnosis & repair
04 April 2025
Wasn't a good experience with service department
04 April 2025
Arrived at 8.30am for simple map updates. Left at 5.45 PM. Just a major inconvenience. No one can explain why map update did not happen over the air.
03 April 2025
Everything on time
03 April 2025
Very friendly and professional
03 April 2025
Top team and always want to help, i cannot rate them enough great service.

Very disappointing service . My car was not diagnosed properly and work wasn't done properly and EML came back . So no difference in car even after work was done
02 April 2025
everyone was superb, good job BMW
01 April 2025
Great service
01 April 2025
Solved the issue easily
01 April 2025
Reception directed to a desk but then got little or no acknowledgement whilst I sat for a few minutes waiting for them to finish on their PCs. A simple "I will be with you in a minute, help yourself to coffee" would be better. Otherwise,very good.
01 April 2025
Charged up car well
29 March 2025
I was greeted in the car park by a member of the customer service team and was immediately made to feel welcome.the people's in reception are very knowledgeable and very polite . The BMW vibe at stratstone is fantastic and a pleasure.

26 March 2025
Good service
26 March 2025
My car issues was solved especially when I was dealing with the service advisor Charlie Kandola. He is very calm and knows what he's doing. Charlie made sure that everything was sorted and I'm giving him 10 Stars.
26 March 2025
The service I received from Steve is second to none, he is always professional and is a credit to Stratstone as a company and more importantly Stratstone Maidstone
26 March 2025
Generally satisied but quite a long wait for service date from date of service request. Valet and wash much appreciated
26 March 2025
They did a great job thanks for looking after me
25 March 2025
Following this basic error with the work on my car I no longer have confidence in the work carried out and won't be using the dealership for servicing again.
25 March 2025
At stratstone Maidstone, I was taken care of by Steve service manager and Abby, very professional customer service, regular updates daily at set time to ensure I was kept up to date with the repairs being done on my car. I would recommend them.
25 March 2025
Abby made sure that all my enquiries were answered in a prompt manner
25 March 2025
No call to tell us the car was ready as promised, parts didn't come in as was promised, overcharged to undo a wheel nut and overall rubbish service.

21 March 2025
Excellent professional and very welcoming all work completed on time and everything explained
21 March 2025
Very good service from start to finish. My service plan needed swapping over, but Helen made that all very simple. Being able to wait onsite and work was very helpful.
21 March 2025
There is nothing to add. I am satisfied. One small point - it would have been better if I could have had the car in in less than 3 weeks from date o booking.
20 March 2025
Service provided by staff.
20 March 2025
Refreshingly better than Arden!
20 March 2025
My only point of dis-satisfaction was that my car was more dirty when returned to me than when i dropped it off. The car was covered in fine dust and dried water mark spots. It was not freshly washed
19 March 2025
The service department has been great at keeping me up to date with repairs especially Abby. Everthing was dealt with promptly and I have no complaints what so ever
19 March 2025
They ensured all went smoothly
18 March 2025
I can be sure the work is of high standard
18 March 2025
Again excellent work and comms, just the service loans that bring down the rating
18 March 2025
Reasonable price. Great service
18 March 2025
There is nowhere to park the site is not fit for purpose

Very satisfied
17 March 2025
Service and staff were friendly and knowledgeable car was handed back clean.
16 March 2025
Easy to book. Elise was, as always, extremely friendly and helpful. I saw the technician driving my car on the road test. He was driving in a very professional manner. A stark comparison to another premium dealership on the estate
16 March 2025
Completed on time and to my specifications.
16 March 2025
The service team were professional and kept me informed.
15 March 2025

From start to finish absolutely excellent
15 March 2025

15 March 2025
I was told there was a charge of £39 , but email offering the check up was said to be complementary, I did not pay but this should have been known
15 March 2025
Very professional
14 March 2025
