Having just purchased a new to us Ford Kuga from Rufus Carr, I feel obliged to pass on to any prospective customers of this first class business a brief summary of our experiences. Our initial visit to view the car was very positive we were left to our own devices to carry out a thorough inspection and any points that we raised were subsequently answered to our complete satisfaction. We were then offered a test drive which also went very well and proved that the car was suitable for our requirements.

Following the test drive we entered into the part exchange negotiations, which were carried out in a spirit of mutual respect and an agreement was reached which I believe was fair to both parties. It has to be said that at no time did we feel stressed or patronised during this process. Robert, whom we dealt with, was at all times, patient, helpful and mindful of our requirements, which he ensured were met.

When we collected the car it had been fuelled and valeted to a very high standard, all necessary documentation was available and completed without ado. I would not hesitate in recommending Rufus Carr to any prospective client.

I bought a vehicle over the phone being 5 hour drive away. Robert Bullock cannot be faulted and is an asset to the business. Nothing was too much trouble, all requests were complete with a perfect vehicle on collection. Will certainly travel the distance to deal again as these guys are far superior than any other dealership I've dealt with previously. Thank you so much

Fantastic service all round. Adrian was brilliant all along no rush no pressure. Seamless all the way through the purchase. Even taxing the new car for us. Would highly reccomend.

A seamless, professional service from booking the test drive, to collecting the car today, which was pristine. After our recent dreadful car supermarket experiences, the honest laid back, non pushy style of salesman Robert and Mark and Peter was a joy. Great communication, attention to detail and excellent customer service would make us visit again and we would recommend these guys 100%.

Brilliant online sales team and everyone is happy to help with no pressure. I organised a test drive online the car was ready and waiting. I decided to buy and the process was sorted in minutes with the car prepared for me on the day I wanted and at the appointed time.
