Damien was extremely knowledgable about my new car and was able to answer concisely my many questions. Damien was very helpful with all aspects of my purchase and I felt he went over and above what was expected.

The delivery time that was longer than expected. First delivery date was the end of April, then mid May, then the end of May then June..... Ended up being the end of June but that was something out of the control of Bowker.

Aside from several attempts to up sell, they claimed alignment wasn't possible as ride height was 1mm too low on one corner. The car is 11 yes old & that's expected. They wanted £180 to investigate so who knows what they'd find. For 1mm! Pump tires!

04 August 2026
Following placing my order and arriving for my scheduled appointment was informed the work would consist of two and half hour for the works to be undertaken and completed. Alas the works took considerably longer and no one updated me on progress.

01 August 2026
The service staff were fine but when my wife asked a salesman if he would show her the ix3 boot (we have a 2024 iX3 and she wanted to check whether the boot is as high as our dog needs the headroom and our existing iX3 is fine) he was quite rude)
01 August 2026
Because people listen to me and treat me well.
31 July 2026
Car service all completed properly, receptionist very helpful and polite. Car wash was not dried off, and left water marks all over the car and looked far worse than when it arrived, I had to clean the car myself when I got home.
31 July 2026

Having experience poor customer service for years dealing with Landrover, it was refreshing to have such good customer service at the BMW garage in Blackburn. Everyone was so helpful and polite. Craig was really nice and also the vehicle technician.
24 July 2026
Thanks Craig. For supporting me through the process
23 July 2026
The service advisor was, very professional, calm and empathetic. I was offered a courtesy car whilst mine was being fixed. Moreover, they provided me with quality information to allow me to make informed decisions.

22 July 2026
Lovely welcoming staff, quick service great space to work in whilst I wait.
21 July 2026
Car was collected from my home and returned later in the day -very efficiently
21 July 2026
I like the video diagnosis of my fault and why it failed its MOT. But your price to rectify the issue was astronomical. Why are you competitive on some things and so far off the mark on others. You quoted £1100. I payed £500 elsewhere.
21 July 2026
Great service, kept informed when my car was in the workshop.
21 July 2026
A smooth experience from arrival to service completion. Friendly staff helped to make Bowker a superb place to have the car serviced. A complete update on the service was given promptly on the app.
21 July 2026
With the exception of the personalised and heartfelt apology for delay having waited to drop the car off "apologies Mr Welsh we're having the most Monday Tuesday ever" I can't claim to have felt much in the way of warmth of service.
21 July 2026
I didn't take my car to the service centre, it was picked up and dropped back off again after everything was done which was brilliant for me

2.5 hours to re-charge my air conditioning is not acceptable
15 July 2026
Chose Bowker because they offered a free vehicle health check if I had the air bag safety recall work done at Bowker Blackburn. The air bag upgrade was satisfactory. The health check comprised a qualitative tyre report, no brake/steering etc report
15 July 2026
Friendly experienced staff providing a professional service.
15 July 2026

Bowker BMW friendly/excellent service.

13 July 2026
i would have given 5 stars had i been able to deal with blackburn exclusively. i was directed (by phone) to preston....there are not enough characters left to explain things in detail. if someone cares to call me on 07870 608447.i will clarify.
13 July 2026
I feel that the verbal communication following the service at the service desk was very short and not entirely helpful. However, all information has clearly been included in the written report.
13 July 2026
Very always a great service
12 July 2026
When i took my car in, The "salesman" who i saw when i visited showed a complete lack of interest, The Tecnician who i saw later was brilliant he explained everything.
12 July 2026
Below standard

01 July 2026
Happy with the service, my only gripe is having to pay insurance for a courtesy car (never been asked to before) when my 12 month old car had a slight oil leak causing the brakes to malfunction. It wasn't my choice for it to be in for repairs.
