I purchased a BMW from S James Prestige earlier this year. Look carefully would be my advice! This was my first used car purchase from an independent dealer and with hindsight I have learnt to inspect a car a lot closer as a result. I missed the chipped windscreen that I had to get fixed within the first three days. The tyres supplied with the car are new but are totally unsuitable for the power of the car and also are the minimum width for the rims, leaving the wheel rim edge badly exposed and at risk of kerbing. I managed to kerb them on a dropped drive kerbway even. Not remotely suitable for everyday use. The poor quality tyres don’t inspire confidence nfidence and this leads to a poor driving experience and you are unable to safely use the power available. Other reviews suggest that the body kits and wheels are counterfeits and this doesnt surprise me as quality seems low. Eg one of the ‘M’ badges came off one of the wheels and appeared to be a cheap sticker.

Interesting review, considering I called them about a BMW 340 Touring that was advertised on Auto Trader but during the call the sales guy started talking about the front splitter was getting done and the wheels too but the image of the car that was supposed to be advertised was mint looking. This was the point he informed me that the car in the advert wasn't actually the car being sold but was just an 'example' photo??? It didn't state anywhere on the images or in the advert that the image was 'for display purposes only'!!! On that basis, and that basis alone I'll be taking my cash elsewhere.
Waited over 2 weeks for the car, no calls nothing, i had to chase them every time. Went to buy the car after travelling over 100 miles to see the kits are very poor and did not fit right, the car had a dent on the corner and the paint had marks on the drivers side. The wheels well i would be very careful being happy with these with the tyres with a car that producing over 300 bhp. Waste of time but i am happy due to fining the same car with only 5k and 1250 cheaper, the genuine kits are £1275 from BMW so think before you go to this dealer.......trust me !!!!

The experience was very good with S James Prestige until I washed the car for the first time and suspected some scratches on the bonnet. The following week I cleaned the bonnet with strong detergent which revealed deep swirl scratches which had been filled with coloured polish. I range S James and they said they had not done it and offered nothing in terms of resolving the issue or covering the cost of repair. Be aware when you go there, the cars are good but things are potentially hidden on some cars!
