Lovely people, everyone kind considerate and totally helpful, with every aspect of purchasing a vehicle.
I had wants and NOT wants and everyone was fulfilled. Great explanation with test drive, what buttons do what, set my phone up, put my seat so I am comfortable, could not have asked for anything more.
Love the car.
Even sorted my loan, Natwest bank useless I didn't want to use a fiance company, but all good sorted in less than half an hour.
Totally NOT mechanically minded, so much appreciated. Excellent service definitely returning when the time comes. Oh and coffee ☕️ is good 👍 it's a 10++++++ from me.

Just found out after taking apart my car to check the cabin filter that it hasn't been replaced in over 5 years and I had a service on July of the year before saying the cabin/pollen filter looked ok
Very disappointed and angered by this as I paid for a major service and didn't receive this.

It’s great to know that Harrison was excellent throughout. His knowledge of the car and its systems clearly made a strong impression, and I’m glad the follow‑through matched that same high standard. Hearing that your car was presented in first‑class condition is the icing on the cake.
Your feedback means a lot to the team.

I like Volvo and this dealership…
I like Volvo and this dealership treated my dad with respect and were very helpful when he was buying his new XC60. But he had problems with his parking sensors one of them was faulty they sorted this under warranty which was good of them 2 months before his warranty expired 2 more senses went wrong but he didn’t report it until after. I told him to let them know that it’s the same set of sensors on the rear. To let them know when they started playing up they didn’t want to hear it. Out of warranty means £££££. The tried to offer him £600+ billion for sorting two faulty sensors on the same wiring loom as the previous one that went faulty. Safe to say he won’t be renewing his car as a Volvo.custome service went downhill then.
