Mercedes from Saxton 4x4

Just bought a Mercedes from Saxton 4x4, and the experience was brilliant from start to finish. The team was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, making the whole process seamless and stress-free. The car is fantastic, with incredible performance and comfort. Highly recommend Saxton!"

Smooth transaction

Smooth transaction. Tiean, the lovely sales lady was totally efficient and courteous, taking us through everything. Jordan, the business manager dealt with us efficiently. All in all good experience.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!

Avoid at all costs my £80,000 Land Rover Defender unusable, no accountability!

I purchased an £80,000 Land Rover Defender in December 2025. Within days of delivery, serious faults appeared and were reported immediately. Since early February, the vehicle has been completely off the road under manufacturer warranty, still undiagnosed, still unrepaired, and with no repair timeframe provided.

Despite this being a fault that arose almost immediately after sale, Saxton 4x4 have consistently distanced themselves from responsibility, hiding behind the manufacturer warranty rather than taking ownership as the selling dealer. Weeks turned into months of delays and continuous avoidance to accept my return of vehicle has led me to make this experience public.

What is most disappointing is not just the fault itself, issues happen, but the complete lack of accountability, urgency, or customer care once the sale was completed. I have now been forced to involve the finance company and pursue legal action simply to get a resolution.

If you are considering Saxton 4x4, I strongly recommend you think very carefully. Once they have your money, you are very much on your own.

Mix up on delivery

Mix up on delivery. No compensation
Every tyre pressure different on the vehicle
But car and staff very proffessional
Not enough attention given to controls of the car for our liking

Excellent experience at Saxtons…

My car purchase experience at Saxtons Chemsford has been excellent. Clean and good conditioned car collection. Good sales team and staff are friendly. The sales representative Mo was extremely professional, knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. The viewing, test drive, answering technical queries, explaining the options etc, were top notch and I can highly recommend them for car-shopping!

This was my first time buying a car from Saxtons, it will not be the last time. From my initial enquiry with Luke, until collecting the car he was superb at explaining the vehicle and sales process. on collection the vehicle was as described and I would say even better condition. I will certainly be recommending Saxtons to my friends and family. Thank you all again guys.

Positive sales experience (including trade-in)

A great experience throughout the viewing, purchase and selling (trade in) process. All Saxton staff were polite and professional, but without the pushy sales pitch. Would recommend Natasha who guided me through the process from start to finish.

I collected my Porsche Macan T from Saxtons Chelmsford today and I couldn’t be happier with both the car and the service I received. From start to finish, Ismail and Jenna were absolutely fantastic — professional, friendly, and genuinely helpful throughout the whole process.

They made everything smooth and stress-free, kept me updated at every stage, and took the time to make sure everything was perfect before handover. It’s clear they really care about customer experience.

Thank you again to Ismail and Jenna for such a great service — I would highly recommend Saxtons Chelmsford to anyone looking for a quality car and a great buying experience!
