I would like to sincerely thank David Padfield for the excellent service he gave us up and beyond the call of duty - getting home after collecting my new car I realised I had left my bag in the showroom. I rang the showroom and David, without hesitation, said he would bring it to me thank you again

We've just collected our first hybrid Toyota a CH-R. The process from looking to ordering to collecting was enjoyable and easy. Rob Hall was personable informative and helpful. Depending how well the car performs we would not hesitate to return to Toyota Leeds.

Myself and my wife were unsure which manufacturer to use to buy her replacement car. During the day we visited a number of dealers and eventually decided on Vantage Toyota in Leeds. We were met by Rob hall who was a pleasure to deal with. He was helpful and very informative and made the whole process very easy.
