My experience at Hatfield SEAT was very good as far as the sales process. Andreas was very helpful and explained everything very clearly. However, the car was not ready at the time I’d arranged to collect it and there are a few things which need to be done which should have already been done on collection. I arranged at the time to return it to the garage a week later for these things to be corrected and they will provide a courtesy car. If they can get this sorted out they’ll be great.

I was happy with the service at Group 1 Assured Billericay because of honesty, I bought a Mini JCW, it was a big purchase for us and I am an enthusiast, it was a shame the car wasn't detailed i.e. the brake calipers require painting and there were a few very small scratches to the bodywork and wheels, we were overall very happy with the purchase, we had a good deal and the money saved in comparison to similar models on the web will go towards vehicle detailing.

I'd endorse Group 1 Assured Billericay because the service I received was exceptional alround.. no pushiness or trying to sell me items I did not need .. all explained really well and everyone I spoke with associated with the garage was helpful and informative.

As a first time car buyer I must admit that I was a bit nervous coming in, especially because there were so many new factors that I had to deal with and take into consideration before making a purchase, so i felt a bit overwhelmed. However I must say that both Terry and Patrick made the entire process easy to understand, enjoyable and overall a great experience. They have been extremely helpful with all the questions asked and went above and beyond to provide all necessary info from car details, to best options available, to finance. I am very happy with my purchase and with the services provided so i can say that moving forward i will continue to use Whetstone Audi services.

The experience at Harold Wood Audi was fantastic because, From the moment I made my first contact with the salesperson, their professionalism was evident. They took the time to truly understand my requirements and concerns, listening attentively to ensure they could provide the best possible assistance. Throughout the entire process, they remained patient and reassuring, even when unexpected challenges arose. Their calm demeanor and considerate approach made me feel confident and supported every step of the way. During the handover process, the salesperson went above and beyond to ensure I was fully informed about the vehicle. He took the time to explain every aspect of its usability and functionality, particularly focusing on the dashboard features. His thorough explanation left me feeling confident and equipped to fully enjoy my new vehicle. Overall, my experience with was nothing short of excellent. The professionalism, patience, and dedication demonstrated by the salesperson made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Harold Wood to anyone in search of a positive and stress-free car-buying experience.,
