Thank You!

An enormous thank you to Sarah, Steve and Shak for enabling my recent European excursion to be so successful.
From every point of view, the necessary package of documentation,in-car tools and extras were professionally and comprehensively assembled.
The vehicle, a VW Tiguan, was perfect for the journey and task in hand.
I have nothing but praise for this first class team!

Once again, thank you.

Quite possibly perfect

It's been a year since I first rented from vwfs at Pity me Durham. And once again a seamless and professional service.
From pick up to return, it's a solid 10/10.

Best of the best!

3rd time we have hired a car from Pulman Group, fantastic customer service - always a smile and friendly service from Sarah at Durham and rest of the team. Easy to book, good prices, excellent fleet to choose from, and swift check and refund on return. We will definitely hire / buy from them in future. Cannot recommend highly enough. 5 stars

Sarah and Steve are so lovely!

Sarah and Steve, are so lovely, warm, and hospitable. They are exceptional ambassadors for VW. It is my second time renting a car, and nowhere else have I experienced such a genuine and heartfelt welcome as I did at VW Durham.

Excellent service from start to finish

Excellent service from start to finish, you can only book cars which are available not like other companies such as enterprise cars who will take your money online when no car is available and you need to fight and wait for long periods of time to get your money back, VW have reasonable rates of hire, low deposit and excess compared to other companies and fast efficient collection and drop off, if your reading this review before deciding where to hire from then look no further and forget other well known companies as previously mentioned!

Very good service

Very good service, they don’t try and sell you any extra’s. Excellent customer service. Overall cheaper than Enterprise who I have rented from previously. I would definitely use these over Enterprise if I need to rent a car in the future.

Reliable, friendly and great value

I'm becoming a regular / frequent user of Pulman Durham for vehicle rental, which I use for business purposes. This is predominantly as a consequence of reliability issues with trains and flexibility of travel.

Steve and Tracey deliver an excellent, friendly and ease of service alongside great quality vehicles. My most recent vehicle was a near brand new VW Tiguan that I had for 6 days.

I've already made a booking for next week.
