Andrew FordA friendly welcome by Nick, not hassling you with anything. Ask if he could look for certain cars with a suitable budget but didn't find anything as time went on.
Had a phone call to look at a car that was traded in to see if I was interested ended up buying it. Full mot, service warranty etc. Nothing was too much trouble for Nick, easy to get on with no hard sales pitch. Couldn't believe how th car was presented in day of purchase. New car mat new plates well valeted. Will definitely recommend people to take a look at his stock and will be going there when wife decides to change her car.
jethro HI found Lodge Autos Direct just as they listed the type of vehicle I was desperate to buy. Nick and his son were incredibly well organised and prioritised my collection for the next morning.
Their professionalism was just what you needed when travelling the country to make a large transaction.
I would happily do the same again.
Siân MorganA fantastic buying experience from Lodge Autos Direct. Nick was really friendly and professional throughout. I part exchanged a car with them as well and I am very happy with the price given for my old car too. After spending what felt like a lifetime searching cars and going to a few garages where I just didn't feel I had any faith in what was being sold, going to lodge autos was a breath of fresh air. The buying process was simple and easy and I am thrilled with my new purchase. Unfortunately I have to keep the car hidden for a few months now, but I am going to have an extremely happy 17 year old when his birthday finally arrives. Many Thanks to Nick and the team, I would not hesitate to recommend you and purchase from you in the future.
Gabor FExceptional service
Exceptional customer service. I felt personally cared for from the start. No questions unanswered, just a smooth, hassle-free experience. I was unable to pick up the car when I arrived from the airport late in the afternoon so I was given a replacement car. Nick and his team took care of the loan and all the necessary paperwork the next day. 5 stars is not enough!
Michelle AllenI travelled from Redditch to South Wales to see the car I wanted to look at, with the hope of buying it and part exchanging my vehicle. The fiesta I viewed was beautiful and had been cleaned and presented to perfection.
Nick, the owner of Lodge Autos Direct was welcoming, kind and caring. He wasn't pushy at all like I have found other sales people to be in the past. The process of part exchanging my vehicle and purchasing the fiesta was as smooth as anything! He explained everything in detail and was clearly very knowledgeable within his trade. Customer service was outstanding and the car came with free AA cover for 12 months and a warranty on the car was also given.
This particular sales garage go above and beyond for their customers"¦ to them it isn't just about making additional cash. It's about empathy, understanding, customer support including after sales care too. People are so often quick to criticise bad experiences, but we forget to praise excellent experiences. Lodge autos direct has been an outstanding car dealership to do business with. Many thanks to you Nick and all off of your team.

Kelly TerryBrilliant service from Nick at Lodge autos. Picked the car. It had a fresh 12 month MOT and service. Quick turn around and very professional. Would highly recommend.
Lewis WilliamsGreat service. Our family car was written off with an ECU failure on the Friday, had a new motor from Lodge on the Thursday. After AutoTrader's partnered finance company (Zuto) started chopping and changing deposits (that were initially advertised as zero!), Nick pointed us in the direction of a local business, Hawkstone, who were also fantastic.
From start to finish, Lodge provided excellent service and we are absolutely sure of mind with our new car.
A special thank you from my partner for the gentlemen who delivered the car to the Vale of Glamorgan who spent time answering all the last minute questions.
The car itself arrived in great condition with a fresh MOT & service.

AnonymousVery kind and polite! Loving my new car
Anonymousexeplary local second hand vehicle company
The owner/sales manager was a very polite courteous and likeable person who had an exemplary skill in customer relationships and put me at ease without pressuring me into a quick sale. The vehicle i had in mind to purchase for my grandson was of high specification and drove superbly during the complimentary test drive.Furthermore his fleet of second hand vehicles was very impressive and he appeared to have a good eye for choosing vehicles for onward sale to the public.Unfortunately for me a sale did not materialize due to my naivety being a pensioner for providing insurance for teenage drivers otherwise a sale would have the order of the day.There was no problem with the return of my deposit.I would recommend any person to view his second hand vehicles with the intention of a purchase as you would not be disappointed with the product or transactions.The company appears to be well managed.
Adam LewisAmazing service with nick made everything really easy and simple.
I had my young daughter came with us to have a look at the car and he had toys for her to play with when we was sorting out the paperwork. Just the little make it a good experience. Highly recommend Lodge autos Direct.

Stephen HarperI would would like to say a big thank you to Nick and a business that puts the customer first .
Nick was very knowledgeable and helpful and was able to put me at ease with the process of buying a car .

If your thinking of buying a car i fully recommend getting in contact with Nick and his team as this is a place you can trust .
Thanks again

Rob GolledgeDealt with Nick at Lodge Autos for a long distance sale. Communication was excellent throughout and Nick made an extra effort to provide reassurances and sorted some minor issues given I was unable to view the car in person ahead of delivery. The delivery itself was smooth and easy plus an issue with a spare key was followed through all the way to resolution long after the sale had taken place. Highly recommend Lodge Autos and would happily buy from them again.

cusdanReally great experience buying a car from Lodge Autos Direct.
Nick was accommodating, not pushing for any sort of sale, which made myself and wife very happy to browse and pick our new Audi A4. The car was spotless and exactly as described and perfect for us, we would 100% recommend them.
Thank you
GBKWe had an outstanding experience buying our car from Nick; both as a salesperson and owner, he's the real deal when it comes to customer service!
We drove in from out of town with a tight schedule, and Nick went out of his way to accommodate us, making the whole process smooth despite the timing challenges.
Later, when we encountered a few small issues with the car, he didn't hesitate and responded right away, honored the warranty without question, and got everything fixed quickly.
That's what sets him apart: things can go wrong anywhere, but it's how they're handled that matters. Nick handled everything with honesty, care, and accountability.
We're completely happy with our purchase and would 100% buy from him again. Not all dealerships are the same and Nick proves that the right one can make all the difference.
Katie DaviesI recently bought a BMW 1 Series from Nick and couldn't be happier with the experience. The customer service was excellent from start to finish "” nothing was too much trouble. Nick answered all my questions clearly and honestly, and even opened up on a Sunday just to hand the car over to me. It's rare to find that level of dedication these days. I'm really pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a great car and outstanding service.
Thanks so much, I love it!

AnonymousGood service made purchase stress free.
Nick was very friendly and helpful and unusually left us to look at vehicles without any pressure selling. Daughter found what she required as her first ever car and at an acceptable price. Nick sorted all paperwork and new MOT and we collected vehicle in a couple of days. Good service from Nick helped what could have been a stressful purchase.
Nedim NazeraliWe're so happy with our experience and purchase from Lodge Autos Direct. We found a BMW X1 we really liked, but since we were four and a half hours away, we reached out to Nick, who was incredibly helpful, reassuring, and professional throughout.
He provided everything we needed to confidently move forward and have the car delivered directly to us. I really appreciated the extra communication and how responsive he was to all my questions and inquiries. It was also fantastic that each car has its own detailed video that made it so much easier to double-check that this was the right one for us.
Thank you to Nick and the team for your professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail. We couldn't be happier with our new car or the service we received!
Jayne CalvertRecently bought an I10 from Lodge Autos Direct. I was looked after by Nick who made the whole experience a pleasant one from start to finish highly recommend.
Tom ByrneI've very recently bought an xc40 2019 (68) from here and what can I say, it was a pleasure from start to finish, I was dealing with Nick who's been nothing less of superb, this was a long distance sale and I was put at ease every step of the way, the car is everything we hoped for and I'd recommend 100%, I will certainly be using these guys when I get my next car.
Melanie WakeleyA hidden gem! What an excellent experience. Nick was so helpful and we are over the moon with our purchase. Would highly recommend.
Jody OBuying my car with Lodge Autos
Okay, where do I even begin with this outstanding dealer? Nick was absolutely amazing from the start! He kept me completely in the loop, communicating about the vehicle's preparation, the pickup date, warranty, and everything else involved. The entire experience; before, during, and after, was simply unparalleled when buying a car in my own experience!Those huge dealerships around the country, many with reputations in the mud, through their own missteps (let's be honest), could seriously learn a thing or two from Lodge Autos and the magic they bring.Imagine Lodge Autos franchises popping up all over the UK.It would revolutionise the second-hand car market for the good of everyone.Thanks Nick, and all at Lodge Autos!
