I cannot recommend this garage highly enough they are fantastic. We dealt with James who has gone beyond the extra mile to be helpful and of assistance. Every question and query he has responded to immediately and has been so professional. I picked up my Audi TT last week and it was in showroom condition. I feel so confident that if I have any problems with the car they will be dealt with. We have bought many cars in the past but never have I been so impressed with a used car centre as I have been with John Lambert. If you are buying a used car you will not go far wrong purchasing one from this centre.

I recently sold my fathers car to John via the carwow/wizzle website after looking at several other selling options. Dealing with John and his team made the whole process simple and straightforward. John was professional and understanding of our situation throughout. Keith made the collection a stress-free process which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend using John Lamber Car Sales in the future. Thanks guys.

Selling my used VW When I decided to sell my car I contacted several organisations. Only Wizzle (now, I believe, Carwow) impressed me. They responded quickly and within hours I had received an offer. As I negotiated with the dealer, John Lambert Car Sales, Wizzle kept in touch and offered the reassurance that I could contact them at any time. I didn't need to, because my dealings with John Lambert were excellent in every way.

I received a very fair price for my car, which was collected next day. John and his brother were thoroughly professional, friendly and helpful. I would be very happy to recommend them to anyone who wants to buy or sell a car.

First time buying a car at John Lambert Cars and found the whole experience fantastic. From the first time ringing up about the car, to handing over the keys. We were taken care of by James who was really friendly and gave us not one bit of pressure to purchase. As well as that, the car we bought from them was immaculate and obviously sourced carefully. They sorted out any issues and gave the car another clean before we took it away. Top place and highly recommend to anyone looking for a pressure -free, professional and highly quality used car dealership. Cheers

I brought a 2016 Audi TT 2.0 S-Line S-Tronic without viewing or test-drive, but purely based on the website advert along with trust and confidence in John Lambert Car Sales. The buying experience with James and the Team was fantastic - relaxed, comprehensive, even a personalised video tour around the car. Everything was catered for - with a service, full MOT, warranty, arranging tax and fuel for me to drive away, and the car was in gleaming reflective condition.

With hindsight I did not ask key questions like Service History. But I had no concerns, for the paperwork and history all checks out with the car being properly cared for. To turn up and be introduced to this car, right down to my stupid questions of 'how do I start it up', and driving it away was quite surreal. Now a week later, burning through a tank of fuel as I've drove it to enjoy each day, and having plenty of time to discover every individual feature, and seeing its condition in careful detail, I still have no concern or doubt. The car and buying experience is beyond my expectation, and I would not hesitate recommending JL Car Sales for someone's next car purchase.
