Recently bought a Peugeot 3008 from this dealership. Me and my partner dealt with Andy and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. We're located around 40 mins from the dealership and rang to enquire about the car. Within 10 minutes Andy had whatsapped over 3 Detailed videos of the inside and outside of the vehicle which is a great example of going above and beyond for the customer. We expressed that if we liked the car once viewed the following day after test driving we'd take it, again within minutes it was taken off of auto trader and put to the side for us. Once we confirmed that we would like to purchase, the car was ready to pick up after 5 days. Andy made the process really easy and went the extra mile to make sure we were always up to date throughout the process. I would recommend this dealership to anyone looking to purchase a new car (with or without trade in). We will definitely keep A690 Specialist Cars at the forefront of our mind if we want to purchase in the future. Thank you Andy and the team ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Purchased a Audi Q3 recently from here the staff who i dealt with both Dean and Leon were excellent made both the process to purchase so much easier with constant communication and their friendly manner would purchase from here in the future
I have just purchased a Range Rover Evoque, I found it at A690 specialist cars!, we gave them a call and got through to Dean, he answered all our questions talked us through the car in detail, gave information about the place itself and as we lived so far away spoke to us about the delivery process. The car arrived the following Friday, serviced, new MOT and fully valeted….i was not disappointed and everything Dean told us about the car was spot on!. Its perfect! great car!, great value and worth every penny.
If your looking for a top quality car go and see or call Dean, very informative, above and beyond helpful from start to finish. Have to also give a shout out to the two lovely delivery drivers that brought it to my door!
Signed one very happy and satisfied customer!
So myself and my partner Rob had been looking for a specific car for sometime ( Range Rover ) even travelling maybe 100 plus miles to look at cars that was not what it said on the tin. Bearing in mind we spent around 2 months looking for a half decent car not even realising this dealer ship was on our front door. Eventually we came across a car that we absolutely fell in love with on there website. We attended there showroom the following morning and was greeted by one of there sales executives called Dean whom approached us and introduced himself, he was very professional and friendly and went above and beyond to make our experience buying from A690 specialist cars LTD a stress free process from start to finish. We would defiantly recommend this Dealership to family and friends 100 percent. Also the CEO of this garage Phil introduced himself to us and told us a bit about his business which also we thought was really nice. You only have to pull up on there forecourt to see that every single motor there is to a very high standard and finish.
Many thanks to A691 specialist cars part of the A690 branch for my purchase of my KIa Stonic .Andrew the salesman at A690 was really helpful and made everything so much easier in making my purchase of my kia .Andrew explained all the controls of the car which was great as I've never owned a kia before I am so pleased with my Stonic ,My purchase from A690 was probably the most friendliest and easiest in my near 40years of purchasing cars, A big thank you to A691 and Andrew and would most definitely buy again .
Recently needed a larger car for family reasons. Found what looked to be a really nice 14 reg VW Golf estate online at A690. Andy, the salesperson was incredibly helpful, gave us a good test drive, and had the car ready a week later. Had only one minor issue with the car (back up sensors not working). They honoured the warranty and sorted it out perfectly. They made buying the car a very easy and pleasant experience. Andy knew every detail of the car and walked through every button and dial with me before letting me take off. Nobody has done that in years! Really nice touch. Would I purchase from them again? Yes, but I'm hoping to be driving this car for a very long time still.

Recently purchased a Volvo XC60 from A691 specialist cars and what can I say, customer service from start to finish was exceptional. Thankyou to Gareth for the test drive and being so welcoming and also Thankyou to Andrew who made the journey of buying my next car so effortless.

Me and my wife bought a golf from here. What can I say. We went on the Sunday to look at a golf, which I ended up buying from Dean, Dean was brilliant, he was very professional but also very welcoming and I can basically say he treat us like we were family. Was really honest with us, kind and gave us all the information we needed. Don't hesitate to even call in if you looking for a car, Dean and the rest of the team will 100% look after you. So from me and the wife. Thanks for your exceptional service.
I had been looking for a car for a while and it was suggested that i look at A690 cars and I turned up and spoken to Dean, who was very helpful and ending up getting an awsome car. I would recommend to anyone, good service, friendly staff
Dean at A690 was brilliant, very friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I bought a TT, very pleased with car. Couple things were needing doing prior to purchase which was done very well. Considering I travelled down from Scotland I would definitely consider this garage again in the future. Thank you.
My husband and I were looking for a family tow vehicle with some luxury. We were treated like royalty by Andrew. He showed us the car, test drive and never pressured us. We feel in love with the car and Andrew was so helpful and showed kindness. We are so happy with are new car and the after care from Andrew has been so nice and we will definitely go back to Andrew for another car in the future. Thank you so much Andrew.
Andrew was brilliant from start to finish. Very helpful and friendly made my experience easy and smooth and I love my new car 🚙 thank you for all your help I would certainly recommend to any of my friends and family!! ☺️
Took my Range Rover in to have the top tailgate re sprayed and the bottom tailgate repaired in respect of a large dent. Paul explained that the top part couldn’t be resprayed due to some issue with the metal on the door. Required a new door. Didn’t want to pay for a new one so Paul offered to source a 2nd hand one for me and to fit and re spray it. A week later and I’ve got my motor back looking like new. Plus they gave me a courtesy car to run round in so I wasn’t stuck.
Cheers A690. Can’t thank you enough. Cracking customer service⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Andrew was fantastic super helpful and friendly made my experience easy and smooth and I love my new car 🚙 thank you for all your help I would certainly recommend to any of my friends and family ☺️
The simplicity of the whole process.
An extremely professional set up, from first contact with Paul until the work was carried out to high standard.
Everything that was asked of them was completed.
I would certainly return in the future following my experience of work ethic I have witnessed today.
I purchased a car from A690 over a year ago the service has been outstanding. A big thanks to Jordan in service nothing is too much trouble even the other day I had a crisis with my tyre and he helped me get sorted. I would not hesitate to buy another car here over and beyond any other garage thanks so much !
