First I was happy with Prestige Cars Kent but i got the problem with the booth and also with my soft top roof which would not come down so I called the Prestige and they said bring it over which i couldn't as it was slightly raining so they promised that someone will be there to sort the problem but nothing happened that evening so I contacted in the morning,again whole day passed by and again nothing happened so i called a known mechanic who managed to sort the problem and charged me £150 which i told to prestige cars and asked them to resolve the problem when i bring in for service but they did the service and asked me to take it again as it had to be dealt with the Bentley dealer which I have on monday and today is good friday and I was told that it will be ready by this Saturday 15/4/2017. I did get the courtesy car from them with hardly any petrol in it which i complained to Gayor Powell who assured me that any of my problems will be sorted out so I will put my review once i get me bentley back. Having spent a huge amount of money the service is nowhere as per the name.

Prestige Cars Ken were tasked to source me a car, reasonably simple criteria and in line with other cars on autotrader etc. I was sent three cars. two of which were completely wrong, one was £2k over budget, I said no and then got a rude email from the sales manager saying they have sent me 'a number' of cars and im wasting there time. either I take this car or they wont work with me anymore. After I complained they found a car which I liked, they put me through all finance checks and even took a £1000 deposit. A few hours later they called to say the car had gone it was there error. Back to being rude to me and 3 days later I am still waiting my deposit refund. Some of them seen pleasant but typical wide boy salesmen. Will not use Prestige Cars Kent again or recommend.

***ABSOLUTE MUST READ*** First of all where do I begin. I bought a Volkswagen Golf R from not so Prestige cars on the 2nd of April after 2 weeks of them so called preparing the vehicle. Had I not been so hasty and done all the correct checks before part exchanging a perfectly good Audi A3 for £5000 and paying a further deposit of £2500 of my hard earned money I would have definitely not bought this car. 12 days after buying the car it broke down with smoke bellowing from the exhaust and also the engine rendering the car unable to drive. I had to get the car towed back to the dealer in the evening and leave the car outside their gates. I decided to write a letter rejecting the car for a refund under the consumer rights act and after delivering It to the co director Jack who was extremely cold and rude I left there without a car extremely disappointed. I was told I cannot get my old car back even though it was still there and the nerve to say that I will be hearing from their solicitor was ridiculous. After contact Barclays partner finance and explaining what had happened they had an independent company inspect the car after a further 2 weeks and miraculously they report that the Golf R now works fine and there is nothing wrong with it, 'How convenient'. Now finding out the car has had 7 previous owners and was previously another colour and had the number plate changed twice it was no wonder the car was in a bad way. Under the bonnet it was extremely shoddy and unkept, the alloys were scratched after they said they would be refurbished and Internally the gear stick was broken amongst other discrepancies. Everything about the Customer service and the way I have been treated throughout this entire process has been extremely poor and judging by the most recent review by Imran I would say this company are racist and have no regard for people of colour. I could definitely sense it especially by the way I was spoken to over the phone and in person. As you can tell I am holding nothing back in this Honest review and if you're reading this and thinking of buying a car from Prestige Cars my good advice would be DONT! Take your money and buy elsewhere where you are appreciated and taken care of. Where you can deal with honest people that know the value of a customer. Needless to say the vehicle was vastly overpriced, not fit for the road in my opinion as cars of that age and price are not suppose to break down after 12 days. I'm not afraid to admit my stupidity in not checking over the vehicle thoroughly before signing anything. However that doesn't excuse the fact that they treat customers like dirt and just out to make a buck with no regard for their customers. Do not be fooled by any good reviews about this outfit. They are a sorry excuse for a dealership.

Shouldn't you as a buying be checking all this things you stated also if it was overpriced why did you buy it? Was just reading the reviews before I looked at a car, had to comment on this one as it's ridiculous and just wasted my ten mins
Started in 2012, Prestige Cars Kent is a family-run, independent dealership based in Orpington, Kent. We stock more than 200 prestige cars from Audi, to Rolls Royce. Each car undergoes a thorough 175-point inspection prior to sale and is supplied with a 12-month Warranty, underwritten by ourselves.
We are able to take in existing cars as part exchanges, and are able to offer finance options (we are authorised and regulated by the FCA). With a large panel of lenders, we are able to provide the best solution to meet individual circumstances.
Selling hundreds of cars a year, usually with a Service Pack, has driven demand to provide car servicing. Whilst we have delivered this for a little while now, in early 2020 we were delighted to open our dedicated car Service Centre, just down the road in Orpington. With 13 service ramps, manned by main-dealer trained technicians using the latest equipment, our aim is to provide better service than a prestige main dealer at a considerably lower cost.
Manufacturers: Sells a variety of makes and models
