    It’s not very often these days that you can expect or indeed receive great customer service. Coles Automotive prove the exception to the rule. I found a car advertised on autotrader being offered for sale by Coles. I contacted them at 8.30 on Thursday 29th August and spoke with Alex who was extremely helpful and informative. I later spoke again with Martin who I understand to be a sales executive at which point we agreed terms and payment method. The only problem for me was collecting the vehicle a 3 hour drive away from where I live. Martin offered to personally deliver the vehicle for me the same day. Good to his word I am now the proud owner of a pristine C Class Mercedes. All this achieved within one working day. A massive shout out to Alex and Martin. Thank you so much for your friendly professionalism. I would have no hesitation in recommending Coles Automotive to anyone thinking of buying a vehicle anytime in the future.

Whether we go to them for routine servicing or emergency repairs, nothing is too much trouble.

    ā€œIt does not seem so long ago that a visit to a commercial garage could prove to be an intimidating prospect; testosterone fuelled mechanics practising their patronising, dismissive attitudes, shadowed by their stock in trade ā€˜girlie’ calendars in often uninviting, grubby surroundings. This proved to be as unappealing to some males who were less than confident in their ability to identify the difference between a crankshank and cylinder head as it was to many women.However,Ā from its glorious location to the friendly, personal welcome from the professional, efficient staff, Coles is the antithesis to the above. As well as having our cars serviced, MoT’d and repaired, we have recently bought, through Coles, replacement vehicles. Their research, advice and guidance has saved us a lot of time, effort and frustration.Throughout the years of dealing with Coles, we have been more than satisfied with the help, care and expertise we have encountered. There is always and element of trust implicit in the buying, selling and maintenance of vehicles. Ā In the case of Coles, this is not misplaced.ā€

They make things simple and easy and always have time to answer my questions. I have bought two cars from them and found the process to be straightforward and, in fact, enjoyable. When my car was stolen they were really supportive and helped me find and buy a replacement vehicle.ā€

Although they are busy which is a good thing, they will always fit you in. They will also give you immediate attention should you have an urgent car problem.ā€

    ā€œWhen we first moved to Sussex 22 years ago, Coles was one of the first places we visited on a tour of ā€˜people you must know about’ given by a friend. Since then they have looked after all of our cars and vehicle needs: routine servicing, repairs to engines and bodywork, checking over potential purchases, getting them all through MOT – often far from straightforward. Coles manage to deliver a rare combination of professional, high-tech diagnostics and kit with a slightly old-fashioned practical approach to engines and vehicles. They are very good at advising what makes sense (we have quite a stable of clapped out vehicles, which they miraculously keep going safely), so we trust them completely, particularly when it really is time to give up on one.Ā  A couple of times they have gone way beyond the call of duty; once lending me a courtesy van during a week of an epic house move after I had clobbered the exhaust on the largest vehicle I was using fully loaded every day (literally nothing would have been more helpful than that, which took so much stress out of the situation), and more recently re-gassing the air-con on one of our cars at very short notice in the heatwave. Not only fitting me in, but lending me a courtesy car to make it all seamless and as quick as possible.Ā  Dropping off and picking up is always simple and convenient, and the reminders, appointments and communications are managed in the most friendly and efficient way.Ā  I could not recommend Coles more highly – my only regret is when we occasionally have to have something fixed as a main-dealer-only recall or replacement, when we can’t use them.ā€
