There are few words to describe how awesome these guys are.
After a negative experience with a different dealership, I came to them as a newbie to the world of performance cars and RS3s. After speaking with Dhyllan on the phone for nearly an hour one evening, I was put at ease immediately with his honesty, helpfulness and unrivalled knowledge of RS3s. He talked me through every inch of the car I was interested in and took the time to educate me, and asked me to come to him for advice even if I didn’t buy a car from them.
When I decided to go ahead, Dhyllan, Louis and the team could not have been more helpful and attentive. They sorted my private plate to be on the car ready for collection (free of charge), and they made the collection day a special event and went above and beyond to make it memorable. Everything was smooth and painless, and they picked me up from the train station on collection day (in an RS3). They did a nice reveal of the car with the marketing team, who took some epic photos of the collection moment.
The detailing and preparation process the cars go through is mind-blowing. On collection day, I was given a tour of the detailing area and watched some of the team PPF-ing a car for a customer. The attention-to-detail and care they take doing this is amazing. Even though they are used, all of the cars looked better than I would expect them to coming new from the factory.
Louis spent hours with me on the day talking me through every aspect and feature of the car. He did a great job of explaining everything to a complete beginner and I came away much more educated than when I entered.
Their after-sales support has been amazing too, replying to any question I have promptly and efficiently.
Ultimately, nothing is too much much trouble for the team at Automotive Addiction and, in an industry with an unfortunately high frequency of dishonest individuals, these guys stand way out from the crowd as being trustworthy and having integrity.
They now very much have a customer for life and I would implore anyone to use them!
Thank you to Dhyllan, Louis and all of the team at Automotive Addiction! I love the car and I look forward to dealing with you again in the future!

I have been following Automotive Addiction for many years on social media so I know their work, what they do and the detail they go to when cleaning and preparing their cars, although that is only a small part of what you see and experience.
I was in the market for a particular car and had been looking for a while for the right one to come up.
I saw a story on Automotive Addiction’s Instagram page of a car going through the washing process and immediately messaged them but unfortunately it was already sold! I filled out the stock form on their website and Dhyllan messaged me soon after asking some information regarding specification / budget etc.
A week or two later, another car popped up on their story, and I messaged Dhyllan immediately asking to view it! He was away working but got back to me in less than 10 minutes still.
I had arranged a viewing the next day (bearing in mind they only got it 24 hours prior from a previous customer) and dealt with Louis who was absolutely excellent from start to finish.
I viewed the car, all questions were answered clearly and was put under no pressure at all. I had a great chat with Louis and he was extremely relaxed and I went away to have a little think about the car and the options etc I would like (PPF / Coating) as I am really picky! The specification I wanted was virtually impossible to get, but this car in particular was stunning.
I agreed to buy the car, and we arranged for some extras to be put on. I was kept informed and updated throughout the entire process and they have done everything they said they would and more.
I collected the car on a Saturday and it was perfect.
I can’t thank the entire team who have worked to make this car perfect enough. Dhyllan, Louis and the entire team take great pride in looking after their customers and going above and beyond what you expect.
I would not hesitate to deal with Automotive Addiction again for anything car related, and I certainly would not hesitate to recommend them!
Thank you to the entire team at Automotive Addiction!

EXCELLENT Based on 322 reviews Posted on Antonio BarbieriTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Could recommend Automotive more great team with some absolute beauty's I'm over the moon with the new rsq3 such a rare color and top spec honestly couldn't be more happier with it , also added ghost immobiliser and full ceramic coat including inside which was all also done with these guys who had it all sorted before collection 🙌 I'm happy for now but soon as it's upgrade time I know where I'm coming 💙Posted on Rick matthewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought my RS3 from these guys back in 2021. They were super helpful, the car was exactly as described and was delivered to me in Northumberland in a covered trailer and had been prepared beautifully. The car was immaculate and exactly as promised. They even sent me a comprehensive guide for cleaning the car - that I still use today. I did have an unfortunate sensor failure in the first few weeks and again this was sorted with no quibbles or issues. I can't fault these guys for the quality of their cars and their customer service. Thoroughly recommend.Posted on JayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After being a repeat customer of Automotive Addiction for the past 8 years, Dhyllan kindly offered the option of a SOR deal for my G80 M3 Competition. This meant I achieved a much greater return than I would of done selling privately or using a generic car buying company. Once again another 5 star experience with Automotive Addiction, meaning I will be a returning customer for many years to come.Posted on CookyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Visited Automotive Addiction for the first time this week on a recommendation from another customer who speaks very highly of their business and work ethics and the quality of their craftsmanship . After meeting Lewis and the team I was showed around the business and given information on what they have to offer. I was also shown cars that had just been detailed and I can see as a person with a very keen eye that they are top of their game and I was very impressed which doesn’t happen too much these days. I have a new car on order and as soon as it is delivered it will be going straight to Lewis and the team to take a new car to the next level of newPosted on MrC2958Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sold my 8Y RS3 to them, quick fast and friendly service. Money was in my account before the car went on the trailer. No issues at all and very happy 👍Posted on Lyudmil SmilenovTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and meticulous in what they do! Highly recommended coming from a repeat customer 🙌🏼Posted on Preet KaurTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Picked up my new car, Porsche Macan. Excellent service from the garage, all the finer details as in they sprayed the brakes in yellow as I had asked them to and the car was ceramic coated. I was given flowers to add which was a nice touch too. Much appreciated the above and beyond service provided, most definitely recommend Automotive addiction.Posted on yassam fareedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently purchased an M3 comp Xdrive from automotive addiction. Dhyllan, Louis, and the team couldn’t have been more helpful. They answered all my queries and the car was in perfect condition, even better than the pictures and videos I had received before hand. The attention to detail making sure the car is as exactly described without any discrepancies is second to none. Would highly recommend purchasing a vehicle off them as you will not be disappointedPosted on Ucar UCURTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

From start to finish, the process was smooth, transparent, and handled with great professionalism. Dhyllan, who I dealt with personally, was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. He took the time to answer all my questions, provided detailed information about the vehicle, and made sure I was completely confident with my decision before finalising the purchase. His communication was clear and consistent throughout, and he made the entire process feel relaxed yet efficient. The Audi RS3 itself was presented in immaculate condition, exactly as described—if not better. It’s clear that Automotive Addiction takes pride in the quality and presentation of the cars they sell. The attention to detail and the care they put into both the car and customer experience really stood out. I would highly recommend Automotive Addiction to anyone looking for a high-performance vehicle and a stress-free buying process. Thank you to Dhyllan and the team—I’m absolutely loving the car!
