About company:
We specialise in selling used 4×4 vehicles. We are a family run business with four generations having run Walton Motors since 1955.
Our original site in Walton on Thames (hence the name) was opened in 1955 and we moved to Cranleigh 10 years ago.
For peace of mind when purchasing a used 4×4 vehicle from Walton Motors, all our vehicles prior to collection are serviced, fully MoT’d by an independent garage and we ourselves carry out a 20 point check on all our vehicles. Also all vehicles are fully valeted, AA & RAC inspections are fully welcome and any essential repairs that may be found are rectified free of charge by ourselves prior to collection.
You’ve been warned by me! Don’t buy from these guys. I bought defenders off Andy and shipped to the states. Andy or Mark will assure you that everything is “lovely & perfect mate”. They buy roaches at auctions for pennies on the dollar that Barely run, Over-spray them in a shinny gloss paint and tell you it’s fully serviced. Don’t let them fool you in the pics. They paint over all rust an rot. This is hands down a Ponzi scheme to scam Americans out of thousands and ship them crap products months later.
Blown away by the performance of Walton Motors. I was very nervous about buying a car over 300 miles away. However I had nothing to worry about. The Team at WM, where extremely helpful and listens to my needs. Being a tree surgeon I wanted the rear of my discovery converted to a van. This job was completed in just 7 days and only for a small fee. The car was delivered to me without issue. The best part was that I got a fantastic price for my part exchange. I had one issue but bearing in mind the car had just done a 300 mile Journey it was to be expected, there was a nail in one tyre and the team at Walton sent my the money to get it replaced, without hesitation.
My wife purchased a defender from these guys. Like a few reviews it looked ok but in reality it was a mess. Should have suspected something when the electrics went in the middle of driving soon after purchasing. Don’t buy from these guys.
Seems they like to trick overseas customers a lot. Put a down payment to hold a Defender. They ended up selling it to another buyer. They said they have experience in US imports, so I assume they’ve worked with a lot of American banks and finances. Had to cancel a bank check three times because they do not know how to endorse a check before depositing it. Won’t refund me my deposit for the original Defender I wanted. And you know what? If they had been professional and upfront and just said, no we can’t refund for this reason, like saying it’s non refundable (which I was never told nor was it ever in writing) I could’ve just said fine, let me cut my losses. But nope. They, Charlie, chose to not answer my emails or calls when asked him about for two weeks. At least get some balls and be professional. Learn from my costly mistakes. If you’re an international buyer, don’t bother, they like to play the fact that you’re not there and sell you a shit bucket and not even be professional enough to give you the time of day.
Walton motors were fair and supplied us with an amazing car that has been fantastic for 3 years. Very courteous and honest. Will buy our new car through Walton without a doubt. Mr Lee. Bmw 520
I PURCHASED MY DAUGHTER HER FIRST CAR FROM WALTON MOTOR’S, SHE WANTED A VERY SPECIFIC DEFENDER. MARK AND ANDY WERE EXTREMELY HELPFUL. WE ADDED SOME EXTRA PARTS TO THE CAR BEFORE IT WAS DELIVERED. WE ONLY HAD ONE ISSUE WHEN 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE WE HAD A PIPE BURST ON THE COOLING SYSTEM. AFTER SPEAKING WITH MARK HE SORTED THE ISSUE AND THE CAR WAS FIXED QUICKLY. THE SERVICE FROM WALTON MOTORS WAS IMPECCABLE, MY SON IS EXCITED TO GET HIS FIRST DEFENDER FROM MARK AND ANDY NEXT YEAR. THANK YOU
I bought two Rovers from Walton Motors via the internet for full price, and both had countless problems that are expensive and time consuming to repair. What really bothered me is that these were obvious problems that they clearly knew about but because I was an overseas buyer they took advantage of my not being able to inspect the vehicles. A local buyer would not have purchased these cars the way they were . These people are essentially dishonest and I would advise keeping well clear of them.
What a great dealership, Friendly and always happy to help. I would recommend them to anyone I know. We have had no issue with Sam (our Tdi defender) Mark and the team thank you for making everything so stress free. we have our eye on one of your quad’s, so will be back soon.
