Customer reviews of L Foster Autos Ltd

By Pauline P on 05 January 2020 | Purchase not verified

I purchased a vehicle today and would like to say what an absolute fantastic experience I had. Such excellent customer service and the staff made us very welcome. No pressure selling at all left to look around car, very helpful, kind and friendly. I would highly recommend them to anyone. The car I brought was as advertised and I am very pleased with my purchase. They also make a very good cuppa. Thank you

Refreshing to meet a young man/garage with an understanding of business..as I arrived 1/2 late for a 9am meeting (Not used to Birmingham Traffic) was welcomed with “would you like a drink Neil, Tea Coffee or water?”.. Nice one Leonard, I appreciated that after a long drive.....The showroom was impeccably designed and decked out, very clean and tidy, impressive even.... I then went to the loo which I can only describe as 5star, so tidy and nice smelling!! I bought a M5 BMW from LF,the car was exactly as described, I was offered a fair trade in for the vehicle I arrived in (R32).... he even reduced by a further £20 when he noted the golf had a chunk of fuel still in it. Now,I have only done 200 miles in the car but at present I am over the moon with the experience. I hope you do very well on the R32 LF, it’s a gooden. Neil.46 year old Business owner. Somerset. If you are wondering why I travelled so far to buy a Car, I was going to see my Mum. First ever review for a garage.

Hi Neil Thank you for the review. It was really good meeting you and George. Glad you had a good drive back to Somerset and hope you have many more enjoyable Sunday drives in that beautiful M5. Hopefully we will do business again in the future and if not we will have that game of golf. Kind Regards Leonard

Great experience. Viewed an Alfa Mito for my son when down on business from Glasgow. I was given the keys and told me to look round the car with no pressure. The car was absolutely immaculate and presented to a really high standard. Phoned back a couple of days later and bought the car. Took the train down and was picked up from New Street station and taken to the showroom. Driven the car back and it drives as good as it looks. Main dealers could take a lesson from here. Been to 2 Merc dealers here in Glasgow looking for a new company car, one I was completely ignored despite loads of sales people and the other I was subjected to the full ‘double glazing’ sales experience. Couldn’t be more different. Would happily recommend L Foster and proves that good honest car buying is possible from the right people. Ken.

Impeccable service. All the cars in the showroom looked of a high standard, and you could tell that they have pride in the cars they sell. I was travelling from a distance so I was picked up from the train station so I could drive it home. The car has been a very welcome asset and I would definitely use/recommend them.

I decided on Friday night that I fancied an Audi A5, I set my search to national to see what was about and found a gem, only 20 miles from home at L.Foster Auto's. We went over on Saturday morning and were greeted warmly, dealt with brilliantly and ended with a fair deal. Nothing seemed too much for they guys here and made me, my wife and my daughter feel extremely welcome. Leonard dealt with us and I have to say - I have been in the motor trade for 28 years and people like him are few and far between. He interacted with all three of us - This is vital in my view as whilst I am paying the bill it was a family decision. A tru asset to the business. Thank you all.

I am hoping I will be able to change my review in the near future if the things which are wrong with our car are sorted out. However, at the moment, my experience of this garage is very poor. We bought a car (a part-exchange vehicle which the garage had taken on) at the beginning of January 2019. The condition of the interior was described as "good". However, the side of a seat was literally smashed in, the arm rest on the driver's side floppy and laying on the floor, key fob not working, central locking working using the key but doesn't work on one of the sliding doors (which we have to lock and unlock manually, which is a worry if we have an accident) and the parking sensors not working at all. None of these things were listed in the advertisement. Unfortunately at the moment it seems we will have to return the car for a full refund as we can't seem to get these issues sorted. We had the car delivered to us as we live a long distance away from the garage.

Hi Emily we have responded to you via email asking you to bring the vehicle to us and we will rectify the issues. However you are not willing for us to do this. The vehicle you purchased from us was sold without warranty and was a part exchange to clear which we clearly listed in the advert and sent to you. Upon delivery you inspected the car and was happy with the purchase and give our driver the ok to come back. We are really sorry you feel this way as you can see from our 5 star reviews this is not something that we have had before. If you return the vehicle back to us we will happily correct the faults or give you a full refund of the asking price £1945 including the delivery charge. I hope you are wiling to work with us on this matter to get it resolved.

I purchased my Mercedes E250 CDI Sport back in January and i have to say i was very impressed with the service. Arranged everything over the phone, all questions / concerns answered then drove down to collect the car over 400miles away! At this point there are always nerves about whether the car was going to live up to the advert / pictures in the flesh but if anything it was in even better condition. I was made to feel very welcome and the whole experience was very pleasant and professional. No hard sell involved at any point and very genuine people. All of the cars are detailed to an Excellent standard. I had 1 issue with the car during the initial warranty period which they would have fixed straight away had i lived closer but we came to an agreement over the phone and i got it sorted. Overall a breath of fresh air regarding my previous experiences with traders and when i look for my next car i wouldnt hesitate to buy again from here. Thanks again to Leonard and co.
