Went into Ford Durham looking at a…
Went into Ford Durham looking at a certain car and from the off was met with Jess.
She was lovely and understanding of what I wanted in my new car and hit the ground running.
I had told her about my previous experience when looking at cars and how much of an awful experience I had.
Jess was completely different in every way way, she explained everything about the car and what different features it has. I was able to take my time and look around the car comfortably before taking it out for a test drive.
When we got back Jess sat down and made both my partner and I feel comfortable and discussed all options.
Jess talked through all the process and emails I was receiving, she kept me informed about the whole process right up until I drove away with the car.
Would definitely recommend both Jess and Ford Durham to anyone.

Sold a Ford Kuga Phev Titanium and purchased an MG4, where Sue McGlade did an excellent job (12 out 10) with the change over and the work involved. If this car turns out to be as good as the Kuga then I will be well happy.
Thanks again to Sue & Andy.
