Faultless from start to finish. I had never heard of FA Roper before someone on one of the forums pointed me to a 911 Turbo they had advertised. A quick search showed that they are a long-standing, respected family business going back generations. I arranged to see the car and immediately walking in to the showroom had a gut feeling that these were genuine, honest, open guys you buy the person as much as the goods. The car itself was immaculate, full history, a couple of compromises, but offset by the superb condition and low mileage. The story doesnt end there though a week

Great service start to finish. What a nice experience this was buying a lovely AMG E53 Merc from a small but very professional company. Great service and communication with the car exactly as described. Would recommend and would use again.

Thank you for great professional customer service, great car and an easy transaction. I highly recommend FA Roper as refreshing change to the normal car buying process, who simply only stock nice example vehicles.

I bought a used Lexus from FA Roper last week when I found myself carless after a disastrous experience at another dealer. From the first enquiry to the completed deal it was an absolute pleasure. All the staff I dealt with were consummate professionals who seem to take great pride in the heritage of their business and the fact that they only source excellent vehicles. Mine appears to be one such vehicle: It has an inscrutable history anddespite having 55k miles on the clocklooks and drives like brand new. When I collected the car, every nook and cranny had been thoroughly cleanedincluding
