Great dealer

Despite having an issue with my car the owner HAS got back to me and gone out of his way to help me. Even though the warranty supplied with the car did not cover my roof issue, Andy has made a sizable contribution towards the repair bill. Many would not, so I think it's fair to say this dealer goes the extra mile and cares about customer service. Would definitely buy from again. Thanks again Andy

10/10 super dealership Superb service start to end. Was looking for a reliable run around - a VW POLO. My 1st experience with another dealer was poor completely no customer service. Andy from the start secured my interest over the phone even being closed by being a complete professional, the dealership is RAC approved, he was very understanding of my situation in securing funds and was patient (held on to the car due to delays). Fixed 1 repair he was upfront with and agreed to do some extra bits. Tony was great during the test drive and very friendly. Upto delivery of my car with Maz it was a professional experience. These are the sort of dealers we need. I have a good condition car, with full history and 6 months warranty. Easy and no stress. Ikram

In a bid to do our bit for the environment we had decided to change our 'gas guzzling' Range Rover Vogue SE for an electric vehicle. Don't get me wrong we've always been a fan of Land Rover and have had several of the different models from early Defenders to, until more recently, the Range Rover Vogue SE, but the desire to become more environmentally responsible along with the increase in fuel prices, has led us to rethink our mode of transport. Now as much as I've been a petrol head, having various different 'boys toys', I am also a 'tech head' into my gadgets and gizmo's. We had contemplated getting into a hybrid 4x4 but a part of me said, If you're going to do it, then do it properly. As a fan of Elon Musk, I was very intrigued to find out what the Tesla brand was like as a driving car. I did contemplate purchasing a brand that was more familiar with the production of motor vehicles but what sold Tesla to me, was the fact that they had put all the infrastructure in place with regards to the charging of their vehicles and they just seem to be head and shoulders above the competition. A view shared by Andy the owner at Lakeside Cars Ltd. As much as I came over all nostalgic when I saw the Ferrari Testarossa tucked away in the corner, I was more impressed with the selection of vehicles they have on offer. Having seen many video's on the internet, especially YouTube, seeing the impressive Tesla Model S Performance Ludicrous was certainly a bonus. Andy so kindly allowed me to take it out on a Test Drive despite my interest predominantly being in the Tesla Model X and it certainly surpassed all my expectations. To start with, the presentation of the car was impeccable, the car was polished wheels were unscathed, the interior was in fantastic condition for a used car which was refreshing, as all of my previous vehicles were purchased from new and I had given them no indication of my arrival. The acceleration on this car is phenomenal but with the weight spread across the base of the vehicle it provides a very sturdy and confident drive. The car certainly throws you back in your seat with the distribution of power instantaneously. I was given my first experience of the Tesla Autopilot which was quite impressive. I was hesitant initially to relinquish control of the car as it took a slight bend in the dual carriageway, but with a little encouragement from Andy, I was able to witness the capabilities and relax. I can certainly imagine the benefits this would provide on taking long journeys. During the test drive Andy went through some of the controls explaining in detail how to navigate through the screen which was very helpful, something I initially though t may be quite daunting but once again was amazed by the simplicity of everything. At the end of the test drive, which wasn't the typical 5 minute 4 left turns, I stepped out of the car with consummate ease, Supercar performance yet comfortable and understated. All my expectations were surpassed, by the car and by the experience, I proceeded to purchase the Model X 100D I was after with the 6 seat configuration in Grey with white interior and the aesthetically pleasing 22" wheels but I am certainly coming back here for my Model S Performance Ludicrous. Andy, thank you for your time, the time you've put into understanding the product and the whole buying Experience. 5 Stars doesn't do you or Lakeside Cars justice. See you soon
