Customer Name: Jennifer Dunman - Purchased: Volvo XC90
We were looking for a Volvo XC90 and found that McCarthy Cars had several available. We visited the Croydon forecourt and test drove one that we liked. The sales advisor - Dan, didn't pressure us, was knowledgeable and friendly and gave us time to consider our options. We bought the car and collected it 5 days later. It was prepared to a good standard, was fully serviced and MOT'd and a repair that we had requested had been completed as agreed. We were very happy. The vehicle developed a small fault with its wing mirrors a few days later. I returned the vehicle to McCarthy's, they repaired it and provided us with a loan vehicle for the day. Our vehicle was fixed within 5 hours and was delivered back to our home address. Overall I am very pleased with the service we have received and I recommend McCarthy Cars on that basis.

 

Customer Name: Amy Weller - Purchased: Suzuki Grand Vitara

I went to McCarthy Cars in Croydon on recommendation from a friend at work and had my heart set on a Toyota Rav4 which they had on their website. On arriving I spoke to a young guy (I can't remember his name) and he showed me the Rav 4 from the web.


 I was looking for a 4X4 as I recently moved from Carshalton to Sussex and the roads are a bit rougher than London. The car seemed great on first look but then James McCarthy must have overheard my conversation with the salesman as he joined us and asked me pretty much every question about my car-needs/likes/wants you could ever imagine.

After this, he went into quite some detail about why the Rav4 with that mileage might not be ideal and pointed me towards a lower priced Suzuki Grand Vitara which was 100% a better match for me.

This was a revelation of a car with a solid history, low mileage and was so nice to drive so I didn't need to hear another word. It was so nice not to be patronised or pushed to spend more money (as I spent less than I was planning to!)

Two weeks in and I feel I have got the perfect car for me rather than just a car that does the job.

Thanks guys!

McCarthy Cars were very helpful in the purchase of my Peugeot. I had been to several other main dealerships within the area but the service and the condition of the vehicle was to such a high standard. The salesmen were informative and made the whole sales process easy. The car is absolutley lovely and was just exactly what I was looking for. I will be recommending them to my family and friends.

 

Customer Name: Amanda Venner - Purchased: Volvo XC90 SE D5 Auto

James was great - drove a hard bargain, but bought the car we wanted at a good price. The car was fully serviced and MOT, with new disks all around as well as a new set of tyres without us asking for them.

Customer Name: Richard Webster - Purchased: Rover 75
I've just purchased my third vehicle from McCarthy Cars, a Rover 75, which I'm extremely pleased with. The service was ‘five stars' as usual; they even drove the car out to my home in Caterham for me to test drive, as I had a broken ankle and was unable to drive my current rover which had manual transmission. The car was then taken away to be serviced and prepared for me and delivered back to my door two days later full with fuel!! I can only say good things about McCarthy Cars and as always, I will continue to recommend you to friends looking to change their car.
 
 
Customer Name: Derek and Angela - Purchased: Rover 75
Dear Jim & Dan, Just a quick note to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU for making our car purchase so easy, smooth and hassle-free. Prior to our visit to McCarthy Cars, we'd been to a few ‘main' dealers and there's no way their service could be compared - not even by an iota - to the service we've received from you. Dan amazed us with his quick response to all our questions and concerns. When we visited the Croydon branch, Jim made us feel so much at home. Honestly we've been blown away by the professional yet friendly service you've given us! All we had to do on the day was DRIVE away as everything had been sorted out by the time we got to McCarthy Cars on the pickup day!!!!!!! We'll definitely recommend you to family and friends and we'll of course come to you for any future purchase. Thanks so much and keep up the Excellent Service!!!!
 

Customer Name: Simon Newman - Purchased: Lexus 
Thank you James for the wonderful ‘after sales care service' we received from your company. Having previously owned a Lexus I can honestly say that the service we received from your company was equal if not better to what we were used to.
 

Customer Name: Stuart Francis - Purchased: Peugeot 607 
I would just like to say what a pleasure it was to purchase a used car from you. The service I received was exemplary in every way. You totally understood what my needs were and matched the vehicle exactly to what I required. The Peugeot 607 has been very reliable; with regards to the after sales service I received, I must add this was outstanding. The ‘no quibble' policy reassured me that if anything should go wrong, it would be sorted out quickly. I would like to thank you and your company for restoring my faith in customer service.  
 
 
Customer Name: Derrick and Celia Law - Purchased: Jaguar
The Jaguar you sold us is in marvelous condition and is a pleasure to drive. I am now envied by quite a few people around here. I just simply tell them the company we got it from and kindness we experienced. I really did not expect things to run as smoothly as they did, thank you very much. My wife has said that if she's looking for a luxury car in the future, she will be happy to come to you. We wish you and all your staff (especially the driver that picked us up), all the best for the future.


Customer Name: Mr. Matthews - Purchased: Audi A6
I would like to thank all the staff at McCarthy Cars for the excellent service I received; especially James the sales manager, as I found him to be very interesting and helpful. He went through a great deal of trouble to see that the car met my wife's requirements. The car is running very well, and we are delighted with it; it is exactly what I was looking for - a large car that it is economical. We took it to France recently, and it went from Portsmouth to the Loire and back on one tank of diesel. I would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone who is looking for a car.

In spite of the fact that I live in Somerset, in my opinion McCarthy Cars excelled all expectations. I will definitely be checking your stock list when the time comes to replace my Volvo, Cross Country. 
 
Customer Name: Lindsay and Eve Muir - Purchased: Rover 75
As you know, buying a car can be a very stressful, but you and your staff were so welcoming, professional and friendly that created an atmosphere of calm throughout the whole transaction. We would particularly like to thank Dan Bull for his outstanding customer service and communication skills, which unfortunately can be so rare in modern retailing. He supported us so well, showing excellent product knowledge and good sense of humour. We would like to thank you personally for being so helpful over the financial arrangement- we really appreciated it very much. We were so pleased to receive the car the following day. Finally, we would like to compliment you and your husband on such a well- run family business with excellent staff. We will recommend you to our friends and acquaintances. very best wishes.
