Poor and overpriced. Made a mess of our gearstick (see photo) and didn't care that they had - tried to imply it was like that when we dropped the car off, so were calling us liars, too. There's a certain arrogance about the place.

Just picked up my first car from Hunters of Linlithgow earlier Saturday morning with a nice suprise free MOT and break pad replacement. A smooth short drive south home and now safely in my parking space! Would definitely recommend them; brilliant service, friendly staff, very professional, and offer a wide range of cars. Everything you need for a first time buy!
