Went down to look at an Aston Martin DB9 despite having walking difficulties at the time. Ryan was very friendly and patient with me. I explained wanting a pre purchase inspection and he helped sort that out with a local Aston specialist I had found! Alan MacDonald cars very kindly covered the cost of the inspection, even after I had organised it plus covering the cost of a few items that were found during inspection! Car was delivered to me, over 120 miles away at no cost! Why can't all car dealers be like this? Thank you Alan & Ryan for a great buying experience, will definitely be back for my next supercar!

Both Alan & Ryan went above and beyond in helping me secure my dream Aston Martin DB9! They covered the cost of an independent inspection and subsequent repairs which I had organised by the way. Car was delivered by Alan &Ryan right to my home 120 miles away at no extra cost! Why can't all car dealers be like this? I can heartily recommend these guys and will definitely be going back for my next supercar!

I've recently bought a house so had to sell my beloved A6, both Ryan and Alan were first class again! I part x'd the A6 against a lovely VW Golf and everything was taken care of seamlessly. It was my second time using the garage and again it was perfect, hassle free. Couldn't recommend them more to anyone looking for a new car!

Alan was just amazing from start to finish, my new car is amazing. I am 100% sure we will be back soon for a new car for my husband as he's green with envy. Monty and Bailey were just the icing on the cake, if I could have sneaked them in the boot I would have. Thanks again Alan, you've made an old woman very happy 😁

Having mobility issues makes visiting showrooms a but daunting for me. Alan and the staff were excellent in assisting me through the establishment. I was in the market for a vehicle for my son in lay who is returning home after 10 years working abroad. I spotted the vehicle online and have to say the website is really good, in fact the presentation was so good I had already made my mind up prior to arrival. The actual showroom is spotless, and all the vehicles very well presented. It must be a great environment to work in. No wonder they all have happy faces. I would happily recommend. Alan took a small deposit to reserve the vehicle and arranged for a full MOT and the repair of a very minor issue. I liked the way he was not hiding any potential boobytraps. Furthermore, Alan delivered the vehicle himself on the date agreed upon. Fantastic service.

The commitment that Alan and his team have to providing an outstanding service is truly second to none. No hard selling - just trustworthy advice and a warm welcome. The entire process of buying the car was seamless. I was without a car and needed another ASAP for my commute and Alan and Ryan got the car to me very quickly (fully serviced and MOT'd) even with them being closed over the New Year. Highly recommend!

An absolute gem of a find! Alan is genuinely one of the nicest car dealers I have ever met. There is a warm welcome from both Alan and his dogs and from there on there is no hard sell whatsoever. We were looking for small run-around car and Alan had exactly what we needed at the right price (don't insult him by offering less, his cars are realistically priced). The test drive was easy, the purchase even easier, the collection of the car worked like a charm - they even collected me from the local train station! The car is in great condition, serviced and MOT'd and the drive home was a great experience - I cannot recommend this man enough - Alan, many thanks and we know where to come if we need another used car.

Very professional car seller and very friendly. Alan has a stock of beautiful cars and will takes all the time needed to answer your questions and/or to guide you in the buying process. The test drive of a car is just that, a real test drive around villages and towns and not only a 5 minutes run around the garage. My wife and I really enjoyed to meet Alan, the experience of buying a car with him and the awesome service up to the delivery of the car to my door, the following day with a fresh 12 months MOT. Thank you Alan, it was a pleasure dealing with you and we love the car 😊

I bought a car for my wife from Alan. My experience with Alan is exceptional. Alan is one of the nicest salesmen I have come across. He was open to discussing the car and was patient to take our questions. He eased the deal by taking time for multiple viewings and patiently communicating with us for the finance. Being new to the UK I found him very helpful while buying the car. The car was what he promised. I later found out it was complete value for money. He drove to my house for Car viewing and delivery. On top of that, he was available to take care if there is any problem with the car while under his warranty. I recommend Alan! If you are reading this, go have a look at his garage, he will not disappoint!
