Anyone had any dealings with these in Bradford?
Looking at a new / used car but when enquired they aren’t an approved used bmw dealer as such. They don’t sell new ones just used.
It’s their own warranty which they reckon is just as good and the car can be taken to bmw for a repair if required.
They do seem to be bmw approved for repairs / servicing so not sure how they’re not bmw approved used cars.
That’s my only apprehension as always had good service from an approved bmw warranty and so on,y ever bought from bmw.

It used to be Lister Park BMW (part of JCT 600).

BMW took the franchise of them some years ago,

JCT have a large leasing division i suspect they are selling off lease cars

Thanks. Its had 3 owners on a 4yr old car so can’t imagine been a lease car.
That’s another thing I’m thinking of that it’s had 3 owners in 4yrs

JCT as a company are a good company but i've had no specific dealings with their BMW dealership in Bradford.

I think all things considered OP given the circumstances and number of owners and Bradford i'd probably be looking elsewhere.

Well I'd say avoid them, they lost their franchise for a reason, I bought quite a few cars from them 5 new BMWs (I got on well with the salesman) but always got them serviced/warranty work done at Lloyd Colne where I moved my new car business to as well eventually.

In my experience their after sales and servicing was/is shocking.

Thanks for all the replies and think I’ll leave it and hold out for one at a bmw dealership instead.

They're the nearest "BMW dealer" to me, though, living in Bingley, I'd probably use Lloyd Colne purely because its a much more pleasant journey, if a little further to go. Stratstone Harrogate is also about the same distance from me as Lloyd and also a nice drive. I don't know what JCT did to lose their franchise but the reviews on Google are mostly five star.

It was quite some time ago now, but we put a holding deposit down on a Mini Countryman at JCT600 in Bradford. It looked great in the photos, but when we arrived it was anything but! The interior door panel had chunks missing, the car smelled strongly of dog, and it even had a completely different set of wheels. Getting the deposit back turned into a real battle.
