Watford Audi staff was brilliant, quick replies to all messages, very quickly put together a personalised video of the car. Only thing that was a slight let down that ultimately made the sale fall through was the price difference for part ex vehicle. Fully understand and respect their decision. Despite that I would still say they were open honest and overall a pleasant experience.

Think Ford Wokingham were great because amazing customer experience and deals offered. I have been dealing with Wokingham dealership for 20 years now and have always received the best service from Jason Mitchell and this is the main reason I always return when I want to purchase a new vehicle

I'd suggest Hatfield Audi to a friend because the service is top quality, Jeremy (sales advisor) was superb with dealing me a good deal on my car, made everything so smooth and kept me in the loop even on his days off. Alistair (business manager) helped push the finance through checking on a regular basis and the lovely receptionist (I didn’t get her name, but she was working front of house on Saturday 20/02/2021) was also very pleasant and helpful in getting information that I couldn’t obtain myself. Overall they’re top class.
