Just bought my gorgeous new car from John Hayes Cars and had a great experience! Marcus is knowledgeable, responsive and helpful and he made the entire process very simple and stress free for us, which we really appreciated. He definitely went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied and the car was perfect when we got the keys. I’m delighted with the new Audi I purchased and would definitely recommend John Hayes cars.

I had an exceptional experience purchasing my vehicle from John Hayes Cars. From start to finish, the process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. Marcus was knowledgeable, patient, and truly dedicated to help. The quality of the vehicle was exactly as described, and seller ensured every detail was in top-notch condition before handing over the keys. Their customer service was outstanding - Audi what I purchased had a very minor software issue and Markus sorted it out immediately in Audi garage and organised courtesy car for me. They went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable with my purchase and when time comes to change car I definitely go back to John Hayes Cars.

I recently purchased a used car, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the moment I walked into the dealership, I felt confident that I was in good hands. Marcus was knowledgeable, friendly, and patient, taking the time to understand our needs and answer all questions we had. The car itself is in excellent condition, both mechanically and cosmetically. The dealership provided a detailed history report, which gave us extra peace of mind. The pricing was fair, and there were no surprises during the negotiation. He offered the full servicing of the car and even included a few more extras in the same price. Complete value for money. Overall, buying a used car can sometimes feel risky, but this experience was the complete opposite. I’m thrilled with my purchase and highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a reliable used vehicle!
