Our initial discussions were with Gary, who was very knowledgeable and gave good advice on model selection. We booked a test drive through Gary however unfortunately Gary was off sick on the agreed date and time. Phil McCarthy stepped in and took us for the test drive in the vehicle which we ultimately purchased. Like Gary, Phil was very knowledgeable, helpful and supportive through the decision making, purchasing and handover process. We would highly recommend Group 1 Volkswagen Romford.

Group 1 Volkswagen Peterborough were really helpful and I'd recommend them because of the peace of mind of buying from a main dealer. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Asif. He was very personable and professional. We didn't feel pressured and enjoyed the experience. If he keeps it up he will go far. The car is pretty good too!
