Bought an I3 from Stratstone Tyneside and was provided fantastic customer service by Louis. The whole process was seamless and every effort was made to make it stress-free and straightforward. The car was a very reasonable price and a good price for part-exchange was a big bonus. I can't recommend them enough and especially Louis for his customer-oriented approach throughout.

Louis Do made my experience absolutely incredible. His presence, knowledge, expertise, personality, organisation, and simply being brilliant and prompt in every aspect of my purchase (and part exchange), made me look forward to purchasing from him again! Thank you Louis. You truly are a huge credit to yourself, your industry, and BMW. I can't recommend you highly enough! And what a super nice man you are :)

Proud owner of a brand new X3 M Sport 2022 and a special thank you to Louis Do for a fantastic sales experience. From initial contact, through the ordering process and the long wait due to the global microchip issue to handover Louis was informative, professional and a genuinely nice person to deal with. A real asset to Stratstone and BMW. Thank you again Louis for your advice, 'hand-holding' updates and for the informative handover. Coffee was great too! Anybody wanting a great car and a BMW then Louis is your man.

Had my vehicle in with Philippe Jarjoura of the Team at BMW Tyneside last week, the experience couldn't have been better. Fantastic service and a great price. Work was completed to a top standard with a very fast turn around. Highly Recommend.

My experience with Stratstone MINI Tyneside has been excellent and would highly recommend them. I was looking at purchasing a Mini which was over 4 hours away from my home address, which could've been a daunting experience - but Paul Martin was fantastic and made the process as easy as possible for me! Paul made sure that the car I was interested in was everything I was looking for in a car and was always emailing me with updates and videos of the car - which I had requested for.
Even when I didn't have all the correct admin documents, Paul still managed to sort everything out for me as quick as possible. When I received my new car, it was such an exciting experience and was even better than what I had imagined. What I have been most impressed with the most is the fact that Paul has kept in touch with me after the purchase of the car to see how I'm getting on. This is something that I have never experienced before, but I am really pleased that Paul has kept in touch. This shows what a genuine person he is - thank you so much Paul for making my experience really enjoyable!

I first met Louis Do in the showroom last year, Louis spent considerable time and effort in finding me a deal for a new X3. He beat any other dealership with complete transparency and honesty. The car order was placed and he kept me appraised during the build process. There was no pressure selling or "old school" questioning, I am delighted with the service provided and of course the car! Well done Louis.
