Kia of Bradley was phenomenal





“ We were looking for our daughter a car, we visited 3 different dealership's and by far Kia of Bradley was phenomenal our sales person Mackenzie was so professional and courteous in fact every person we had contact with during the whole process was great! We will definitely refer our friends and family. I look forward to making my next vehicle purchase with Kia of Bradley!!! ”
Fantastic to work with





“ My husband and I were interested in purchasing a Telluride but were firm on what we were willing to pay. Mackenzie and Derek were fantastic to work with, made the process easy, and made sure we walked away happy. This was another great experience at Kia of Bradley. ”
Very Professional





“ We had Kevin Barton as a sales associate. He was very professional and super friendly. While we waiting my 3 yr. old son and 8 yr. old daughter were getting restless and the OWNER came out with a little football and began to play with my son, while a woman associate let my daughter cheer for her. Very family orientated. Best car buying experience ever!!! Thank you Kia of Bradley. ”
Kevin our Sales Consultant





“ Kevin was great and awesome!!!! ”
Wonderful Experience





“ I was looking for a specific vehicle that I found on their website. Since I live 7 hours from the dealership, I wanted to make sure it was worth the trip. I called and got connected with the Owner who understood my situation, and let me say that Greg was awesome. He set me up for success and explained what documentation I would need in order to complete the sale. Once I arrived, I was met by a professional and courteous team. Everyone that I came in contact with was positive and wanted to make sure I was being helped. It took about 2 hours to complete the transaction, (which is remarkable when buying a car). They never tried to up sell me and were very transparent through the process. When they delivered the car, it was in pristine condition. So much attention to detail. It was worth the trip, and I would do it again! ”
Customer Testimonial





“ Very good experience. No pressure to buy, manager(Rich) and sales (Kendall) went out of way to explain everything and work out the details of sale, Probably best dealership in the area, No bait and switch, no unwanted "accessories" costs that are added like Chicago dealers ”
Mackenzie





“ We worked with Mackenzie and she was awesome and down to earth. She made sure the vehicle we purchased was exactly what we wanted. I reccomend this dealership and her. Thanks Mackenzie! ”
Loyal Customer





“ I've been a customer for 9 years and even though I have moved over an hour away I still have continued to drive here for all my vehicle needs. My family and friends even drive the distance to come here. It's like going to a spa for cars! ”
