Efficient and smooth hand over.

31 August 2026

They are always great at the centre - this time they couldn't get a bolt off and have re-booked but they handled it really well and have booked me a courtesy car for the re-book. In contrast the cold call feedback team were rude.

31 August 2026

The experience was as described and the team were excellent and kept me up to date whilst I waited for the work to be done

28 August 2026

Christina was fantastic from start to finish. She was so friendly, helpful and professional, and made the whole experience really easy and enjoyable.

28 August 2026

all great but it will be excellent if we can have the car hire on the day of the service through mini or can arrange a mini drive test on the day to entice us to look at newer mini model.

28 August 2026

i've already replied and responded to this email. please stop chasing . part of my issue was that you email and apps aren't coordinated. Do not keep chasing me

27 August 2026

Quality of service and video feedback is great but it's relatively costly

27 August 2026

Josh, as always, was on point, and Rebecca was also extremely helpful.

27 August 2026

Great work with excellent communication. Sort out the issue quickly. The most important is the mechanic had done the good work to diagnose and correct the problem. Josh kept updating the process I'm really appreciate it. Thanks again

26 August 2026

Because I fell like they think I'm a pain to them as reported problem with clutch and they did I not want to know I had to kick up a stink to get it sorted Ollie is fine but I definitely don't feel welcome

26 August 2026

Unfortunately, my car failed its MOT due to a previously unknown tear in one of the tyres. Thankfully, all was explained to me and it was replaced and retested the same day, it just meant a very long wait from 10am to 3.30pm.

26 August 2026

All as expected

25 August 2026

Big thanks to Mark Pipe and Cames Jocklin for all they do.

24 August 2026

Speedy service, a quick fix and great communication

24 August 2026

I wasn't told of the price before the service I was advised that someone was going to call and inform me that didn't happen I did not receive a video of the car being inspected .phone holder not under warranty (bad design)Bracket snapped off

23 August 2026

Great service

23 August 2026

Baring in mind that the reason I took my fully electric mini in was because couldn't open the charge flap, I was horrified to realise that having only just got to the workshop with what remaining charge I had, no extra charge had been added once fixe

22 August 2026

That's my view

21 August 2026

Efficient

21 August 2026

Friendly helpful and informative staff

21 August 2026

Always a pleasure to visit group 1 Mini in Portslade.Friendly , welcoming team,did the MOT and changed brake fluid and washed and hoovered my car.

17 August 2026

Never a problem booking iin for a service or repair

17 August 2026

I had MOT and a full service. Josh was great, and lots of friendly texts and calls keeping me updated. The bad things, my dash board alerts remained on for 24 hours? The valet didn't clean the boot, which was full of dog hair, parts had to be ordered

16 August 2026

Shydon arranged to book me in, then went through the details by my car. He kept me up to date with the progress including talking with the Body shop. So I collected my car with everything sorted.

13 August 2026

It was ok but I ended up having to pick my car up the next day as a tyre needed to be ordered. Given that I dropped my car at 8.20 I think this check could have been done earlier. My car was not checked until the afternoon.

13 August 2026

I've always found them to be professional and welcoming as a dealership and Shydon takes good care of me.

13 August 2026

Problem was rectified. Dropping off the car was smooth. Person assisting was helpful. Picking up the key from the self service machine worked really well.

Poor communication, I didn't get called back told that person had gone home! Wrong part ordered causing a days delay in collection. Waiting and forgotten about in showroom. They forgot to give me my MOT certificate and my service book not filled in

Quality service every time; staff helpful & pleasant; price reasonable too. Nice environment as well.

Super helpful team as always. Thank you Shydon :-)

27 July 2026

Kept up to date with what was going on with the car throughout the day. Car cleaned and vacuumed which is appreciated

27 July 2026

This rating is lower than your staff deserve. The rating reflects my frustration with the procedure involved in getting a routine MOT inspection booked and completed. Whilst I was given every courtesy the attention given was more than I desired.

25 July 2026

Booking- in easy. Kept up to date with job progress. Finished on time

22 July 2026

Excellent customer service. Prefer a face yoga e review after service rather than a follow up email as would like to understand how important the suggested work is

21 July 2026

All went smoothly

20 July 2026

Every time I visit, the showroom changes, this year the seating area was on the lower level which doesn't make it accessible for people with mobility issues.

20 July 2026

Always helpful and efficient.

19 July 2026

A little expensive with less wanting but a full service

19 July 2026

Friendly staff and good communication throughout.
