Chris was very helpful, allowing us to try my husbands mobility aid in various boots to see which models would be suitable for us. This meant we could rule out some models and concentrate our search.

Hi Pam
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that Chris was so helpful and took the time to ensure your husband’s mobility aid was tested in different boot spaces. It’s great to know this helped you narrow down the models that would work best for you. Your comments are truly appreciated.
Kind regards

Picked my 2025 Seat Arona FR up yesterday and and I am delighted with it. The car was prepared to the highest standard and like new.
Traveled down from the north of Scotland as the car was a brilliant price and looked fantastic online, i wasn't disappointed when I arrived and seen the car was just as advertised.
Customer service has been fantastic and I must thank Dan for being on the ball with communication and no pushy sales patter, just honest and upfront, helpful.
And Dan offered to pick me up from the train station and that's fantastic Customer service.
Would highly recommend Vertu SEAT Carlisle.

Thank you for your fantastic review. We’re delighted to hear how pleased you are with your 2025 SEAT Arona FR, and it’s great to know the car was prepared to such a high standard. Travelling all the way from the north of Scotland is no small trip, so we’re thrilled the vehicle lived up to your expectations exactly as advertised.
Dan will be really pleased to receive your kind words. His honest communication, helpful approach and the offer to collect you from the train station are wonderful examples of the customer service we aim to deliver.
Thank you for recommending Vertu SEAT Carlisle — we truly appreciate it, and we hope you enjoy every mile in your new Arona.
Kind regards

Excellent Experience Overall
Damion was particularly helpful when I purchased my car. We didn’t haggle, but I was a cash purchase and the price was a very fair price, and better than most of the other adverts on autotrader, so I didn’t feel the need to try and angle for a better price. I came in from out of town and Damion was extremely attentive and ensured the process was as seamless as possible for me. The car was spotless and exactly as advertised. Overall an excellent car buying experience, and if I was in the market again soon (I know I won’t be because Damion has sold me a great car!), I’d be going back to Vertu and I’d be asking for Damion. I genuinely have no negative feedback - this is what car buying should look like.

Cameron was superb from day one answering loads of emails(I wasn't close to the garage)and giving me relevant information. Decided to drive down from Scotland and he was very easy to deal with. It helps that he's very knowledgeable and listens to questions. I've bought many cars but the experience at CUPRA Carlisle was the most professional I've had. Rhys did some figures and they both listened and worked out any teething problems with the sale. Was seamless. The price and service was second to none. Definitely recommend and I travelled from Scotland.

Trevor the Motability Salesman was brilliant and again a pleasure to deal with. He reassured us that the car would be ready at the time and he took the time to show us how it all worked.With it being our first Hybrid we never had one before, but we was pleasantly surprised.

Excellent Customer Service.
An absolute master class in how to turn a negative into a positive customer experience. Purchased a two year old Cupra Formentor from them just over a year ago and recently the airbag warning light illuminated. Thought it was a simple fix but unfortunately an expensive component had failed and it was not under warranty. Long story short the team sorted things out at no cost to myself and applied the correct Cupra Approved Warranty, which should have been in place when I purchased the car, also at no cost. Great people and great customer service. Thank you.

Vertu Carlisle - don't go anywhere else!
I bought a car from Vertu Carlisle a few months ago and found their customer service to be superb from Reception, to Management and the Sales Consultant.
Over 200 miles from where I lived there were a few calls re the car I was interested in - a 5008 and if I called when Cameron was otherwise engaged, he called me right back. Martin was so helpful too and I cannot thank them enough for their help. The ladies on reception always made sure I received my call back. It was truly such a pleasant experience, I would make the journey for my next car! Thank you so much for everything.
