I have had a great experience today purchasing my next Mini from Bachelors! Nathan is a friendly, relaxed and informative salesperson. At no point did I feel pressured into buying and the whole experience was enjoyable and exciting. I was greeted by Natalie who was very friendly and professional and completed the sale expertly. My new Mini was presented beautifully. Thank you Bachelors!

Having recently bought a used Vitara from Bachelors of Ripon I would like to thank Dave for all his patience and help. He had let me know about the vehicle as soon as it became available and after inspecting and driving it, was most impressed. Dave was so friendly and helpful but I never felt pressured. I would certainly recommend them.

I bought a BMW X1 recently and they provided 5 star service. I had an issue with my car a month after purchase and their after sales manager Paul Ramsey was amazing in dealing with my problem, very professional and he fixed the car for free even though it may not have been their fault. He organised to pick up the car from London, fixed it to a very good standard while keeping me informed. I would buy another car from them without thinking. Again excellent service and much appreciated how they dealt with my issues. Thanks again

Called to Batchelors Ripon following a service and MOT a couple of days before to have a new bonnet stay clip fitted and came away with a different car! Well, there was such a great selection available, my Wife and I couldn't resist. Our thanks to Josh Millar who very ably managed the part-exchange - a painless experience. We have purchased before from Batchelors and have regularly had our cars serviced there. The reception staff and service staff have always been helpful and courteous. Highly recommended.
