Elena made the experience of purchasing my new car an absolute pleasure from my initial phone contact, personalised video of the car I was interested in and then the test drive and purchase.
I travelled 65 miles to this dealership but it was definitely worth it! I would highly recommend Volvo Cars Poole.

Had a great experience at Volvo, was able to walk in same day and have a look at a few cars with the help of Elena. We ended up leasing a vehicle and were guided really well in the process. Thanks, again!

Recently bought a used XC40 from Volvo Cars Poole and it was worth every one of the 130 miles of the round trip. Beautiful car and great service from Jordan who was there for me every step of the way. Friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble for him. Hot chocolate was very welcome and the big blue bow a nice touch too :o) Would not hesitate to recommend both Volvo Cars Poole and Jordan Fleet. Many thanks.

Seamless transition throughout the purchasing process. We were looked after by Jordan Fleet who we found to be friendly, knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. He kept us informed throughout the process and followed up a few days later to check everything was OK.

This is my 3rd Volvo XC60 in a row

This is my 3rd Volvo XC60 in a row. I have been a customer of Volvo Poole for many years and my experience with them, especially when compared with some other Volvo dealerships, has been very positive.
For my most recent purchase, Jordan was my contact person. He proved himself to be very knowledgeable and capable in all the aspects required to complete the sale. He was very friendly and was a man of his word.
The whole process from sales discussion to driving off with the new vehicle, was very professional, competent and efficient.
I look forward to maintaining my relationship with Volvo Poole for many years to come.

Excellent service.

Everything was clearly explained and we felt informed during the whole process of purchasing our first Volvo with Marc. We were impressed with the quality of service from all other staff we met while going to Volvo Poole three times during our purchase.

Disappointing customer service


I had my Volvo XC40 serviced at Volvo Poole today.
The car service and MOT was fine but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
With previous services I took advantage of their free courtesy car or their free collection and return service.
This year, as I'm 85 years old, I was told that I was too old to have a courtesy car and I had to pay £20 for their previously free collection service.
Although they put the blame on their insurers I will be reporting this age-discrimination policy to the Equality Advisory Support Service. If Volvo Poole can't supply a courtesy car I think that they should provide the collection service free for the older effected customers.
My car was scheduled to be collected between 8.30am and 10.30am.After chasing them up their driver arrived at 11.15am. No notification from them so nearly the whole morning wasted. Why they couldn't phone me once the driver had his schedule I don't know, but another instance of bad customer service.
They also provide a car wash as part of their premium service package. However, the quality of this is bad; they left my car with dirty wheels and dirty water drip streaks on the rear window.
I don't consider their premium service to be worthwhile and will be exploring local non-Volvo garages for future servicing

Hello Mel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are very sorry to hear you have not had the experience you deserve at Volvo Cars Poole.

As previously explained by our Aftersales Manager, our courtesy car eligibility is determined by our insurer and is not a policy set by us directly. In addition, our loan car and collection and delivery service charges have been in place since 2024 and applies to all customers.

We also acknowledge your comments regarding the delay in collection and communication on the day, and this feedback has been shared with the team. We are sorry for any inconvenience this caused.

Please accept our apologies, and thank you once again for your valuable feedback.

Kind regards

Great experience at Poole Volvo

Great experience from start to finish. My thanks to John and the team for their help too. Our special thanks are for Elena, who dealt with us personally and who was
very helpful throughout the whole process.
I am new to owning a Volvo and Elena ensured that everything went smoothly. No matter how silly my questions must have seemed, or how often I had a query or got stuck with the online procedures, Elena was able to answer and resolve things quickly. She was always cheerful, professional & attentive. Thank you.

Jordan Fleet - great Salesman

We purchased our Volvo from Jordan Fleet who was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He certainly went above and beyond to make our purchase as smooth as possible. We always ask our car dealer to print our private plates and this is the first time we have ever gotten them pre drilled ….. needless to say that really impressed my husband, something so small meant a lot! My husband is over the moon with his new car.
