I needed some touch-up paint to fix a couple of stone chips on my Toyota. I originally ordered a product online from another website, but after trying it, the color match wasn't right at all. I reached out directly to Toyota Norwich and received a response almost instantly. Within just two emails, a genuine repair kit was ordered for me and it arrived just two days laterA huge thank you to Martin for making the whole process so quick and seamless. As a Toyota owner, I am extremely impressed by their attention to detail and outstanding customer care. Fantastic service from start to finish—highly recommended!

I have just bought a new car from SLM Norwich. This is the 6th time (including when it was Dingles). My wife also bought a new car from here in 2014. She still has it. Service from sales team and service team has always been first class and I just can’t speak highly enough of them. Mind you, their cars basically sell themselves but even so, I find them to be excellent in all respects.
James Porter SLM Toyota NorwichResponse from SLM 1 day agoDear James, Thank you for sharing such wonderful feedback and for your continued loyalty to SLM Toyota Norwich over the years. Six vehicle purchases is a fantastic milestone, and we’re also delighted to hear that your wife has continued to enjoy her car since purchasing it from us in 2014. It means a great deal to know that you have consistently received a first-class level of service from both our sales and service teams. Returning customers are incredibly important to us, so your comments are a wonderful recognition of the care and service our teams strive to provide. Thank you once again for choosing SLM Toyota Norwich. We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to welcoming you and your family again in the future. Kind regards, SLM Toyota Norwich

I have spent tens of thousands of pounds with SLM over the last few years, yet they have treated me with total contempt. They never responded to calls, emails or in store visits. Do they need customers ? When I challenged them on their rudeness and contempt only a half hearted 'sorry' was offered, words are cheap, a more business like resolution was needed. I would go so far as to say their customer service is abuse. They all blame each other. I will never do business with SLM again and would advise anyone else considering buying a vehicle from them not to. You'll only be giving them a stick to beat you with. They are awful beyond words, woke, banal, less than mediocre, deplorable.

Superb dealership. Salesperson that I dealt with provided an excellent service and assisted me in a manner that went beyond my expectations. From initial discussions to actual delivery of vehicle, salesperson, was in my opinion treating me as a valued customer.

From reading numerous reviews, I thought I possessed a near perfect grasp of all cars on the U.K. roads, and had concluded that a medium sized SUV was the only type of vehicle that could withstand the dreadful potholes that plague the roads of East Sussex. So, when examining a RAV4 at SLM Toyota in Uckfield, I was puzzled when the salesman - Charles Caplan - mentioned that the Corolla hatchback was an excellent car worthy of my consideration too. He duly arranged a lengthy and unaccompanied test drive which I used to traverse the worst stretches of road I know - the Battle Road just outside Heathfield is dreadful - and theIconspec demonstrator with 16wheels rode astonishingly well, similar to Citroens which are renowned for their ride. Furthermore, the 1.8 litre engine provided surprisingly rapid acceleration via its eCVT gearbox. I ended up ordering the Icon spec of the Corolla in the Tourer estate version with a 2.0 litre engine, and received an excellent deal. Charles is a relatively rare example of a salesman who is not only efficient and polite, but also has excellent product knowledge; a Corolla was completely off my radar as I assumed it would be wholly unsuitable but I realise now that it’s a perfect fit.
Rob Alderman SLM Toyota UckfieldResponse from SLM 1 week agoDear Rob, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed five-star review and for sharing your experience with Charles and the team. It is particularly pleasing to hear that Charles took the time to understand your requirements and encouraged you to consider the Corolla when you had initially set your sights on an SUV. We’re delighted that the extended, unaccompanied test drive gave you the opportunity to experience the Corolla for yourself, including on some of East Sussex’s more challenging roads, and helped you discover that it was so well suited to your needs. Your comments regarding Charles’s efficiency, professionalism and product knowledge are greatly appreciated. It’s wonderful to know that his advice led you to a vehicle that you had not previously considered and that you were able to secure an excellent deal on your new Corolla Touring Sports. We’ll be sure to share your kind feedback with Charles and the wider team. Thank you for choosing SLM Toyota Uckfield, and we look forward to welcoming you when you collect your new Corolla. Kind regards, SLM Toyota Uckfield

Five Stars from us! From pre-sales service to after-sales service Sam Davis at Toyota SLM gave us exemplary service. Not once did we feel as though we were being 'sold to' but rather listened to and understood. We bought the car we wanted for the price we wanted. This is how car sales should be and I would recommend anyone wanting to buy a new car, to go to SLM and ask for Sam

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience with Toyota. I reserved a car online and paid a deposit, so naturally I believed the vehicle had been secured for me. Instead, Toyota called me to tell me that the car I had reserved was being given to another customer. I was told that this customer was purchasing another car from Toyota as well, and apparently this was enough for them to prioritise that customer over me, despite the fact that I had already reserved the vehicle and paid a deposit. What was particularly disappointing was the way this was handled. The call was essentially to tell me that the car was gone. There was no apology throughout the conversation and very little consideration for the fact that I had made a reservation, paid a deposit and was expecting to purchase the car. I initially chose Toyota because the online reviews and high star rating gave me confidence that this would be a reputable place to buy a car. Unfortunately, my experience has been completely different. The star rating certainly doesn’t align with my experience. If Toyota allows a customer to reserve a vehicle and pay a deposit, I would expect that commitment to mean something. Giving the car to another customer because they are purchasing two vehicles is extremely disappointing and leaves me questioning the point of the reservation process. The issue is not simply that I lost the carit is the poor communication, lack of apology and the way the whole situation was handled. I expected much better customer service from Toyota. Sadly, this has been a very disappointing experience, and I would think twice before dealing with them again.

Very disappointing experiencebuyers beware If I could put zero stars I wouldWe purchased a second-hand Toyota from the Norwich dealership and have been extremely disappointed with the experience. The vehicle developed a number of faults shortly after purchase, despite having been serviced by Toyota Norwich before we bought it. We were told by Toyota Derby that the fault is a common issue, yet despite purchasing the vehicle with a 12-month Toyota warranty, we have been told that issues such as the DPF are not covered. What is particularly frustrating is that we have then been quoted £640 for four hours of diagnostic work simply to investigate the fault. We have also been told that a lengthy manual needs to be worked through to establish the cause of the problem. We have also found the conduct of one staff member particularly unprofessional. During our discussions, references were made to another Toyota dealership in a way that we felt was inappropriate and unhelpful, rather than focusing on resolving the issue with our vehicle. As a customer, it was disappointing to hear another Toyota dealership being discussed in this manner. We purchased from a Toyota dealership believing that buying a used vehicle from an established main dealer would provide reassurance and protection. Unfortunately, our experience has been the complete opposite. A 12-month warranty sounds reassuring, but buyers should carefully check exactly what is and isn’t covered, particularly when it comes to common faults and diagnostic costs. Based on our experience, we would urge anyone considering buying a second-hand car from Toyota to think very carefully and ask detailed questions about warranty coverage, diagnostic charges and after-sales support before committing to a purchase. Very disappointing customer service and not the level of confidence or after-sales support we expected from a Toyota main dealership. They are very eager to get your money when purchasing a vehicle but are not interested when something goes wrong.

Had my car serviced yesterday but was very disappointed on collection to find that the car had not been cleaned out or washed. You make a point of mentioning a complimentary wash and vacuum with every service. The service itself cost £285 but was ready in just over 50 minutes which surely gave adequate time to at least run a hose over it. Needless to say my car will not be returning to SLM in future.
Adrian Jex SLM Toyota LowestoftResponse from SLM 1 month agoDear Adrian, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry that your vehicle was not cleaned following its recent service. Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control, our valeter was unavailable last Thursday and Friday, so we were unable to provide the complimentary wash and vacuum. We have been offering all affected customers the opportunity to return on a convenient day, or when they are next passing by, and we would be happy to arrange this for you. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again soon. Kind regards, SLM Toyota Lowestoft
