Our Customer Reviews

I was highly recommended by a friend to visit James to see if he would be interested in buying my Mercedes.
Having limited time as I'm due to leave the country on new adventures, I was very happy with my first meeting with James.
James offered me a good price for my car and a few days later went back into his office and sealed the deal.
Very professional and a friendly family orientated business.
I would highly recommend.
Thank you so much
Jennifer
Excellent, traditional, relationship service.
I'm delighted to have the opportunity to recommend James most strongly. It was so refreshing to deal with someone who really understands the cars he is selling (instead of main dealers who know next to nothing beyond the latest financial deal they are trying to push). James offered a very fair part exchange price for our car and so we avoided the nonsense of 'haggling' from the wrong starting point. In short, he was totally straightforward and trustworthy, and offered the best of traditional relationship service. No wonder so many people independently recommend him, now including me.

Outstanding Service.
After having issues with other garages in the past i decided to wait to leave a review to see how the car was over the 8 months of having it. Although its quite an old car and has had some slight problems James and his team stretched their necks out and helped us resolve every little problem. James is a gentle giant with a big heart and Ray the mechanic is down to earth and as friendly as they come. The rest of the staff are friendly and polite and make you feel comfortable. If only every car dealership was like this the industry would be a better place. These guys are amazing and i would highly recommend them to anyone. If you have any issues they are very understandable and willing to resolve anything without any hard feelings. I would buy a used car from them again without a shadow of a doubt. Thank you guys for all your help over the past months myself and the family really do appreciated it.

Highly recommend, great experience
An excellent experience, the car I bought was beautifully presented and exactly as advertised, I had confidence that I had chosen well as soon as I arrived. James has a great team that go the extra mile to make sure you are completely happy.

Brilliant !!
Brilliant ! I live in Castle Douglas near Dumfries and due to the distance, I had to be sure the vehicle was going to meet my expectations and the same for my trade in, James Wrights had not seen my trade in car and on my word gave me a very fair price. It really helped that I could watch the video of the Grand Vitara I was buying, a proper introduction to the car, detailing everything, the video was of superb quality and they answered all the questions I might of asked in the video, very informative. What a real pleasure, start to finish. The car was exactly as described to me and my 330 mile round trip was well worth it :) I would definitely buy my next car from James Wright with no hesitation at all. would recommend 100%, Thank you James Wright Cars !!!

Purchase of a car for my 17 year old daughter
First class experience from start to finish. We contacted James on the Sunday, got a more detailed description of the car we were interested in and visited the following day. The car exceeded the description and the overall efficiency and friendliness of James and his team was excellent. This is the first review of satisfaction I have ever completed on the basis that I take it as a given that the purchase and item are as expected. However, everything about this car purchase exceeded our expectations and should be noted. We will most definitely use James in the future.
Ray J
Great service
JW and his talented technician went to a lot of trouble to make sure the Porsche 911 I purchased was as good as it could be. The attention to detail was very evident, and it is clear that pride is taken in what they do. So far the car has exceeded expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate in using JWC LTD again.

Great Experience
From the minute I laid eyes on the beautiful ST James had for sale I knew I had to have it! Myself and my partner travelled over 300 miles each way to come and see it. We had full confidence in James when we first enquired about it, he was more than helpful with everything and very friendly. He has a true passion and knowledge for what he does and we can’t recommend him enough. Himself, his wife and the guys that work with him are awesome! The car itself was everything James said it would be and more! Could not be happier with it. Thank you so much for everything! Well worth the road trip
Sarah C
Best car ever! Red Audi SQ5
Absolute pleasure to deal with an honest dealer! Nothing was too much trouble for James, he was patient and not at all pushy, can't recommend him too highly. If there were 6 stars he would get them!!
Paul H
Excellent service
I've been in the motor trade 35 + years, it makes a nice change to deal with some one who is honest! I set myself a 100 mile limit to find a vehicle but after seeing one of James Wrights ultra clean cars i decided to give him a ring. After speaking to him i could tell he was a man of his word and travelled 175 miles to see the vehicle. I wasn't disappointed, i drove my purchased car home a couple of hours later. We were made to feel very welcome and not under any pressure. Family and staff very friendly.. Kettle was on as soon as we arrived. Thanks James Wright Cars

New Car Purchase
Excellent from start to finish. The whole experience was absolutely brilliant and extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend and will be using this dealer again
Graham R
SUPERB SERVICE
From the moment I called James I knew I was in safe hands. I had just left a main dealership feeling disappointed and let down after viewing a VW Golf I was interested in and being told I was too late to test drive it and there was zero movement on price. I immediately remembered seeing a VW Golf online at James Wright Cars Ltd I was also keen to see. I called James and even out of hours he arranged for me to come and see the car. On arriving the car had been cleaned and placed in the drive for me. James greeted me with a test drive and answered all of my questions and concerns fully. He was honest, pointing out minor imperfections even I hadn't noticed. He was willing to come to a deal and I purchased the Golf for a very fair price. Post purchase I encountered one minor issue which James immediately resolved without resistance. I will definitely purchase another car off James again and would highly recommend James Wright Cars Ltd to anyone. Legend!

Excellent advice and service from passionate team
Thank to the team for a really positive experience, no pressure, answered all questions at my level! and taught me quite a bit more! All the team are clearly passionate about what they do and felt that we could trust their advice and judgement. Really pleased with the car and based on this time round I think we will be customers for life! Our boys also loved the chocolate muffins!!
David B
Definitely recommended
James and his team offer great customer service, fantastic cars and helpful after sales. We couldn’t be happier with our Land Rover. I would 100% recommend James Wright cars.

Honest turefull Dealer
I have just brought a volvo xc90 from this dealer after reading about it on auto trader. The review on this car was to good to be true but after traveling 150 miles to see the said vehicle, I was very pleased to find the car was as advertise and in a fanatic condition. The dealer was a fellow petrol head and went out of his way to explain every part of this car and go through all the history in detail. To sum up this dealers adverts are 100% accurate with all information about his cars and the the cars are finished to perfection with nothing hidden a generally honest dealer hard to find these days. I would definitely buy from him again for work and personally..
Dale F
I highly recommend this company
We recently bought a beautiful Range Rover Vogue from James Wright Car Company in Rainford after visiting several Land Rover dealerships in the north west - including the one we had bought our previous Land Rovers from and which had serviced the vehicles. The reason we chose James Wright was because the level of expertise, knowledge and personal service given by him and his technical team was outstanding and head and shoulders above other Range Rover providers. Apart from facilitating the transfer of our personal plate and liaising with the tracker company, the after sales services promised, such as the commitment to undertake our servicing and repairs rather than using a Land Rover dealership, gave us additional confidence in the company.
Peter M
Buying with Confidence
It’s rare that I take the time to write a review, however, after meeting James and his team, and purchasing a car I am very happy with I felt other people should be aware of this excellent company. James made the process so easy, all the way from viewing the car through to the after sales process. Since I have been driving (20+ years) this is by far the best and easiest car purchase experience I have had. I will certainly be speaking to James first when the time comes for my next car purchase.

Truly Elegant and Inspirational Range Rover.
If like me you have desired a Range Rover (or any other car for that matter) James is second to none as the professional to guide you in the direction of a vehicle to suit your requirements. James possesses a quite staggering depth and wealth of Land Rover mechanical technical expertise. He is equally learned as to the gadgetry and software composition of these awesome vehicles. His knowledge of the brand down to the minutiae of technical detail is simply profound. In the event you have little experience of the brand, dealing with James not only saves you extensive research, you are able to draw on James’s experience to acquire your dream Range Rover at the best price with peace of mind. The vehicle I have acquired from James is not only exceptional, the price is exceptionally reasonable. We were given a full viewing of every aspect of the car within private and professional surroundings ,including a detailed breakdown of our vehicle. Enjoyed full test drive.

Lovely car. The team have endless knowledge. After sales care is amazing too.

Awesome car and fantastic buying experience
I bought a fantastic Audi RS5 from James Wright Cars recently. From the very first contact through to driving away in the new car, I must say, it was a real pleasure. No pressure, very fair and reasonable, friendly and professional throughout...I'd go so far as to say, the best independent car dealer experience I've had to date. I regularly change my car and I'll definitely be back to see what James has got for sale when the time comes to get into something new again. My part exchange was considered fairly and the new Audi I drove away in was presented extremely well. I couldn't fault the car or the deal and the service was fantastic. Thanks James.
Danny M
Fab-u-lous!!!
If you want a service you can trust; to buy a car with ease, then James Wright and team are the car sales for you. James puts you at ease, answers all your questions (very knowledgeable man) and makes sure the car you are interested in (in my case an Audi A1) is supreme looking. An excellent car sales!!!!!!!

five star service from start to finish
Had been looking for a Mitsubishi Shogun for about three or four months, so I knew exactly what I wanted. Went to view a Shogun at James Wright Motors and was really impressed by James himself and the service he and his team provided. They were very helpful and knowledgeable, this along with the standard of vehicle he had for sale left me in no doubt that this was the company I wanted to deal with.....FIRST CLASS ALL ROUND

Rheyanne O
Fantastic Service
What an absolute pleasure buying from James Wright Cars Ltd, from the initial conversation over the phone to meeting James and his Team. My new car that I bought was even better in the flesh and I was not rushed or felt pressured to buy the car, James made the whole process very easy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this Company to my Family and Friends.

Great, honest and reliable dealer
I recently purchased an Audi TT from James Wright Cars. Being located in Essex, I was at the other end of the country to where the car was located. I did some research on the other reviews and being then being more comfortable, I called James about my future purchase. James seemed really honest about the car and explained at great length the cars history etc and didn't try to hide the fact that the front wings had been repainted at some point, and that the wheels ideally need to be refurbished. Having discussed the car's history and the HPI check, I then agreed to buy the car over the phone and put down a deposit. James also said that if on seeing the car, I was not happy with it in any way, he would refund the deposit - fair enough! When first seeing the car in the flesh, James walked me through everything (including the bodywork and where the car had been repainted). Very pleased with the whole buying experience and the honesty shown throughout. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!!

Service you can trust
I recently sold my vehicle to James Wright Cars. A very generous value was placed on my vehicle and agreement was followed by a swift and reliable collection of the vehicle with payment and clearance of my existing finance on the same day. Excellent service all round and pleasant experience.

No pressure sales techniques but open conversation. Interior issue found with the car was remedied prior to us collecting it. Personally knows a lot of information over multiple brands, recommended if looking for a top class vehicle

Purchase of Audi TT
James And his team were excellent. I was collected from Warrington Station, communication was faultless. Test drive went well and I’m now the proud owner of a very nice 17 year old Audi TT. I highly recommend James Wright motors. The cars are impeccably prepared and correctly described. The business is tidy and organised. I’d definitely return in the future. Highly recommended.
SARAH W
RANGE ROVER TD V8
We travelled 300 mile round trip to pick the vehicle up it was as described if not better, James insisted we check the vehicle thoroughly and test drive it . He was honest in his description when I initially phone him ,helped with tracker information to see if it helped with my insurance quotes, I was asked to call him if I had any issues ,overall a pleasant experience ,I would recommenced you give him a call if you are looking for a nearly new vehicle you will be pleasantly surprised.

Excellent customer service
My husband and I would 100% recommend James Wright cars. James and his staff were all so welcoming and polite. It was such a good atmosphere to be in whilst purchasing our car. The car we bought was in excellent condition, we couldn’t be happier.
Danielle G
Blown Away.
My experience with James and his team was second to none from start to finish. His attentive, enthusiastic and knowledgeable manner made the process run very smoothly. I've had my fair share of pushy car salesman and (especially being a woman) it can be very intimidating; I never once felt uncomfortable with James and his team. I bought a high milage jaguar sportbrake from him and I've never been happier with a car purchase. Thank you James, Ray and Linda. I will be recommending you to anyone car hunting and I'll certainly be back.

Great Company and Staff.
Purchased a Jaguar XF from James,got a great car and a great deal,would not hesitate going back for my next car.

Buying a Porsche 911 from James Wright
It requires a tremendous amount of trust when buying a car unseen and from another country. James Wright had a Porsche 911 for sale that seemed like the car for me. Being based in France during Covid restrictions I couldn't get to them and I knew no-one in the area to visit either. So, relying solely on the information given and on conversations with James, I handed over the money and trusted my instincts on the purchase. Well, all I can say is that James Wright and his colleagues were absolutely straight and true. All details about the car were correct, all the information I had been given was true and it is fair to say that they went beyond the call of duty in providing every minute detail I asked for. The car was prepared beautifully, to within an inch of it's life - that is to say that they made a tremendous effort to make the car look like new - it was 11 years old. Wheels were removed and wheel arches made immaculate. Honestly , the service was quite frankly impeccable.
Paul D
Jeep Grand Cherokee
Firstly this is a genuine buyer review I (like you) am suspect of overly ‘glowing’ reviews on line! I’d just like to thank James for his help, patience and attention to detail which made my purchase of Jeep Grand Cherokee stress free and pleasant experience. The transaction was ‘click and collect’ due to the current COVID restrictions and also my distance from James’ location. I was given a very accurate and honest appraisal of the car backed with hi res photos from the website. This gave me the assurance I need to pay a deposit and arrange finance before calling to collect he car. The trade in price for my car was very fair and his assessment very pragmatic . On collecting the car my expectations were exceeded in terms of how the car was presented it all looked almost new, every minor flaw in the bodywork had been sorted to an extremely high standard. At no point during the process did I feel pressured or manipulated to close the deal.
Gordon J
Amazing experience!
Fantastic experience with James. Quick to respond and quick to book an appointment with me. Warm welcome and spent lots of time going through the details of the car to make sure I was happy with the car. Allowed to test drive for 20 minutes which allowed me to really get a feel for the car. After he went through all my options and was so helpful with explaining all the details that I wouldn’t have been aware of. I purchased the car and I am a very happy customer! Thanks so much James for being so hospitable and friendly. Would come back in the future for sure!
Megan R
Excellent, personal service
After much time spent researching I contacted James Wright Cars about a well presented BMW 330 Touring for sale at the end of 2020. As I was travelling from Northern Ireland it was reassuring to discuss with James on the phone at length about the car prior to making any travel plans. After arranging travel I was picked up at Liverpool airport a few days later by James and when we arrived at the premises the car was absolutely as described - very well specced, in pristine condition and presented perfectly. A warm welcoming atmosphere from James, his wife and Ray (fellow irishman!) with a test drive followed by a painless purchase which was carried out with 100% competence, confidence and patience (particularly while I got my insurance sorted). I can't recommend this company highly enough, as other reviews have said James' knowledge, character and confidence should set any prospective buyer at ease. Thanks again James- and apologies it took me so long to get round to writing this review!
