I found my Bentley Continental Flying Spur on line, at Howard Johnstone Cars LTD. Spoke with both Peter and David and a couple of days later, agreed a part exchange figure on my car. I paid my deposit over the phone and was assured this would be returnable if either party were not completely happy for any reason, My drive over from Manchester 222 miles and overnight stay turned out to be well worth it.
The car was just as described, I took my test drive, Five or Six miles, just one small point, a noise to Front Drive Side Wheel. Both David and Peter insisted on rectifying the problem before I took the car away. The car was taken over to the Garage the same day and rectified, not a big job. This was agreed and saved a further stay over, or 222 mile delivery to Manchester.
I was assured if I took the car I would be reimbursed for any work if the noise returned. My drive from Edinburgh to Manchester was faultless. (Very Happy) I recommend this company and would buy again.

We bought a car from this garage before Christmas and we were very impressed by the service, customer care and follow up call we received from Peter to check all was okay. We had previously had very poor interactions with a local Ford garage and this was a refreshing change. We will definitely go back in the future and thoroughly recommend them.

I can't fault Howard-Johnston cars in any way. We asked them with help finding a second hand car which met particular specifications within a tight price range. They delivered to the letter whilst also offering an excellent trade in deal. The team are honest and trustworthy and customer service is brilliant with PHJ only ever a text or phone call away.

I recently purchased a Mercedes from Howard Johnstone Cars. I found the car to be exactly as described on Autotrader, the showroom was friendly and relaxed. There was a minor niggle with the car (probably me being pedantic), HJC rectified this issue to my complete satisfaction in a timely fashion. I cannot fault their customer service, they did everything they said they would do and I was made to feel like a valued customer even though this is the first car I have purchased from them. I am very happy with my new car. Straightforward, honest motor dealer. I would certainly buy another car from them.
