As most of the respondents have already mentioned you don't need a survey or a Poll!!

They may be the biggest dealership in europe. But they get my vote for making the biggest mistakes the worst customer service and just generally terrible in what they do. Evil or Very Mad

And this is me been polite, very polite.

Please don't let me carry on

As I have said on here before,I bought my first and,up to now,only motorhome from brownhills of newalk in July.I was warned not to buy from them,but no,i knew better!Well everything I had been told about them has come home to roost.The biggest,most expensive buy of my life and have been treat like a bloke buying a second hand car from Mike Reid for £100.00.The aftersales are an nothing short of a joke in my experience.

PS MERRY CHRISTMAS Laughing

Well it has now been 8 days awaiting a reply over my problem. Autocruise responded within 2 days so that set the benchmark and so I will give them a negative vote for failing to update me within a reasonable time. They do have my email address so it would be oh so simple to keep me happy and not grumpy. Crying or Very sad

A two-thirds/one-third split is probably about normal, were this poll to be taken on a basket of motorhome suppliers (seemed a good collective noun in the circumstances Smile).

Based on the amount of noise made by disaffected people, I would have expected a far more negative result. It may therefore have more to do with the old adage that the squeakiest hinge gets the oil, than Brownhills.

And no, I'm not defending Brownhills. Or being hinge-ist. Just observing. Rolling Eyes

Brownhills lose customers, on a frighteningly common basis, due to poor after sales

They (currently) keep winning new customers, by keen pricing.

Sooner or later, the supply of new customers will dry up. They will be left high and dry.

Like Northern Rock, they have a flawed business model, which leaves them vulnerable.

Even if they change, there are many of us who won't be going back.

I don't agree. There are plenty of Big-On-Sales/Small-On-Service companies in many industries who continue to succeed despite poor reputations (unfortunately).

At least 63% anyway. Smile
