Bought my new car from these guys a few months ago, it's a great car, as advertised, I couldn't be happier.. I found their laid back approach most refreshing!

Travelled from Leicester to view a Porsche and was very pleased as car was exactly as described. Had a good long test drive on the motorway. Not rushed or hassled in any way. Good after sales too. Would certainly use Shirlton again.

Really happy with the purchase of my Pick up, Shirlton Car sales have been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, finance was easy to arrange and collection of the vehicle was a stress free experience, I spotted a minor repair was needed on the door handle which was no fault of theirs and would of cost £20-£30 to repair, once I spoke to them they went above and beyond and provided me with a years warranty free of charge (should have cost around £250) I could not be happier with the vehicle and the customer service, thankyou very much Shirlton Car Sales.

Firstly I was excited to receive my new car.. Then when it arrived , which I paid extra for the delivery , I was accused of not paying and asked to pay again… It took over 90 mins for them to discover it had been paid and the owner said that all his staff were their and no one took the money.. They eventually found the payment after I had been on to my card company. Also they overcharged my card by £10, no apology no nothing .. The car was described as new but the headlights were in a grim condition and needed replaced. The car ran out of fuel on the way to the fuel station they delivered it super empty It was only 1.4 miles away to the fuel station .. Not even a sorry Sir our mistake... Never again .. I have phoned and emailed but no reply.. Guess they got my money and an extra tenner and that was that

Martyn Firstly thank you very much for your business. Sorry to hear about minor issues and here is our resolution: Apologies there was a £10 over payment it was our operational error the refund has been issued. The Volvo headlamps do dis colour over time and it can be cut back easily with cutting compound or even toothpaste, we choose not to do this but you can if you feel it would make a visual difference. When a vehicle is delivered we always leave fuel in for an additional 20 miles as an operational safety procedure, we cannot understand why you feel this was not the case. We will add £30 for fuel in order to satisfy the issues above. Many thanks again Martyn and we are sure you have a gem of a car there. Regards David

called in the burntwood branch to see an x-type jaguar, to be greeted by a friendly and helpful salesman we liked the vehicle straight away and after a test drive and a chat we bought it. as we lived closer to Cannock they arranged for us to collect from there. on collection we were told if we had any problems just to give them a ring (non at the moment)

Due to the good reviews we decided to look at a Jaguar estate 2006. Confirmed twice by telephone that it was ready to go and had FSH. We were greeted by the salesman Andy, who knew completely nothing about the car. The vehicle was not as advertised, there were numerous scratches to the bodywork and rust around the windows, causing the seals to bubble - according to Andy this is to be expected and on every vehicle of this age. I pointed out that this was not true, as I had an older Jag without this problem, and also own another vehicle of that year, and again no rust. He told us that it had full service history, which it did NOT. Last service was nearly 25,000 miles ago, which was three years. When questioned he just looked through the numerous receipts for tyres and wheel balancing. He told us he's only worked there three months. So used that to not know about the vehicle!

Many thanks for your review and account of your visit to our new Burntwood site. I have looked in to your points made and will act on any valid operational faults made by us immediately. We cannot seem to see where the Full Service History is listed on our media adverts and would welcome your feedback on this. The car is advertised as “Service History”. The car in our opinion is certainly in line with its age and mileage. On closer inspection there is some rubber seal bubbling and minor surface rust forming. I can only apologise If you would have asked, then we would have certainly put these items noted by yourselves in order as we do on all our “work agreed pro-forma invoices”. Such items pre-sale are signed upon deposit by each and every customer. We will now take this on board as a training issue and as such we will relate this to the relevant staff member in order to clarify this in future transactions. Once again our sincere apologies David Durrant / Director

We purchased a 2008 Ford C Max 4 weeks ago. We had a full service and a timing belt change done on it and our mechanic gave it a thorough check over. He told us that there were no problems and it was a very good car. Dave and his brother were both polite and helpful and we would have no hesitation in recommending Shirlton to others.
