Looking to get a SVA 5.0 - probably a 2017 MY car. It wont be Black, White or even Grey, unless its SV palette

Any recommendations as to dealers to look at or to avoid.

I have seen Auto 100 & Saxton 4x4 - very mixed TP reviews

I'm in the South East

Bought mine from Sytner Select in warrington, wouldn’t recommend them tbh . 2019 SV AB Dynamic Scafel Grey

Bought mine from Group1 Guildford when it was trading as Inchcape. Bought unseen admittedly during Covid. The car was/is excellent. The buying experience, contact, and handover at the dealer was woeful and will never be repeated! Mike - MPx

2017 5.0 V8 Supercharged SVAutobigraphy Dynamic SVO Palette Grey (2021-...)
2012 5.0 V8 Supercharged Autoboigraphy Orkney Grey (2017-2021)
2007 4.2 V8 Supercharged Vogue SE Tonga Green (2012-2017)
2002 4.4 V8 Vogue Bonnatti Grey (2008-2012)

Its a no for Auto100. Had a few problems within first couple of days. Not us, must be you they said as their quality control is infallible. One of the things was torn wiper blade rubber, considering it was Mot'd the day before I picked it up & had never used the wipers going home. Got nowhere until I left a terrible review. Phoned me immediately, asked to retract it. I said I would if they paid to rectify the problems, which they agreed to

Bought mine from Inchscape/Group 1 Derby. Would not recommend.

Mine had an engine management light on 30 minutes after I drove it away. I took it back, they reset and sent me on my way again. An hour later it came back on. Got it fixed at my cost with local dealer, Derby never returned my calls.

This is exactly my experience with Sytner. Simply never returned any emails / phone calls until you give up. 2019 SV AB Dynamic Scafel Grey

I used auto100 and learnt to check absolutely everything work before you leave their site, they say they do check everything which might be true but they missed the controls on the steering wheel, which they did rectify really quickly whilst I was there replacing them. I forgot to check the steps, drivers side work perfectly but passenger side deploy and don't retract still like that to day.

Also had a missing cover on the bottom tailgate latch which they said they would send me never appeared.

So I would just say no matter where you are buying from try every button and operation and make sure you are happy with everything before driving away as with any second hand car aftersales is very limited once you drive away.
