The experience at Hatfield SEAT was good because of our sales person Chloe. She explained everything clearly, she took her time with us and it didn't feel like she was rushing us to get the deal done as soon as possible to move on to the next sale. She was far from your typical sales person and in fact the Hatfield team seemed a far cry from the stereotype, which was refreshing.

I'd suggest Norwich Audi to a friend because the level of care I was given from the inquiry of the vehicle, I was dealt with Eden Bird. She was so nice, I was given a high level of customer service and for an additional touch, she gave my son a new teddy bear which was delivered in our new Audi Q5. The whole process was very smooth, I was given the price which I had in my budget to having the vehicle being delivered ‘free of charge’. I am located over 3 hours away but having said that, it’s certainly a nice touch. I would definitely recommend Norwich Audi. Thank-you so much my wife absolutely adore’s our new car!

Staff at Hatfield Audi are friendly and approachable. Kaz in particular was knowledgeable about cars and finance options on offer. Kaz is very responsive with queries and goes above and beyond to ensure customer is satisfied. Would definitely recommend!

I am really impressed with Group 1 Toyota Maidstone. I purchased and collected my used vehicle at the start of September, and even though they were extremely busy with the new 73 plate registration collections they took the time to help me with my purchase, were very thorough, friendly and informative throughout the process. I was very impressed by the Sales Manager (Jack?) and particularly with his team member Danielle who helped with the pre-sales, handover and after-sales experience. Danielle met all her commitments, explained things clearly and even gave me a courtesy call a few days after I collected my vehicle. I would not hesitate to purchase another vehicle from this dealership again. Excellent!

Stansted Audi were really helpful and overall I'd recommend. As Audi approved dealership they have to sell cars with at least 3mm tire tread and in my case front tires were less than that, so they replaced them to brand new. All 4 tires were Michelin and when they replace front tires to brand new, they put Kumho brand tires, much lower brand and quality tires. Although overall they done their job - changed tires to brand new, I got lower quality/cheap brand tires. I would not give 10/10 for this, rather good 8 as they decided to save few pounds on tires.
