Very pleased with the car I bought from Dean two weeks ago. Everything is as he said it would be ie 12 months' MOT, full service, 30 day warranty and he sorted out the road tax too. Would definitely recommend.

I purchased a 12 Plate Vauxhall Insignia from Dean 4 Weeks ago. The car is an absolute lovely drive, increasing 700 Miles with no issues as of yet (Only negative, car isn't as economical as expected but after speaking to other Insignia owners, they said similarly).
Dean checked prices on extended warranty but this wasn't attempted to be sold! I'd highly recommend this dealer, as he's excellent with communication pre and post sale!

Absolutely superb. Found a new listing, managed to call and enquire, arrange a video call to view the car and answer any of my questions within a couple of hours then arranged to service it for a sale only a couple of hours after that! Incredible speed and response, car was beautifully valeted and serviced and runs like a charm. Great people, great service, fully recommend.

I bought a Vauxhall Astra from Dean today. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family. He made the buying process really easy, and deals with any littles issues promptly.
