Professional and friendly throughout... Not pushy sales pitch, accommodating and happy to negotiate...DIANNE T
Especially Joe - sales... went above and beyond...
Fantastic service from start to finish.SIOBHAN D
Called back regarding my enquiry withing a few hours, booked in for a test drive and got the car within a few days.
Everyone working there has been a credit to the company with nothing less than a brilliant service.
Excellent experience buying cars off these lads,I have just purchased another two off them this week (1st week of November) and they have gone beyond the call of duty especially for a car for my daughter.SIMON F
Very comfortable buying experience and I would say especially for a woman or a younger person as they explain everything perfectly.
Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Bryan and Anthony will do as much as they can for you without any pressure whatsoever.
Joe was really friendly and helpful. The car was exactly as described and pictured. We were able to test drive the car with no prior booking or call to them. The garage had completed a lot of work on the car to ensure it was running well. When we brought up a concern regarding a tear in the leather of the drivers seat this was repaired before we collected the car. Transaction was simple and they ensured the vehicle was taxed before we drove it away. Included 3 month warranty is of high coverage level and extended warranty’s are affordable.LAUREN S

Saw a car we were interested in on their website and decided to visit. The staff were so friendly and helpful, answered all our question.BRIAN R
An all round great experience.
From first looking around forecourt the staff were friendly and helpful but not pushy. After choosing my car they let me test drive it on my own so I could get the feel of it. I actually test drove 2 but didn't like the first one. Car was fully serviced and MOT and there was a couple of things I asked for and they threw them in at no extra chargeYVONNE H
Really happy with this dealership I visted on the 26th May bank holiday to look at a ford fiesta. I realise it was closed but I was able to see the car as it was outside and you can see from the street. I seen Anthony taking photos of other cars he told me they are closed and he was there taking pictures of new stock they received. But he allowed me to look at the car I was interested in and he even got me the keys so I can have a good look inside too and left me to it with no pressure at all. I was happy with the car and he even let me test drive it which I was impressed with since they where closed. I took it for a test drive on my own as well which is always a plus for me as i felt more comfortable on my own and was able to have a good drive around. I purchased the car on that Monday and received it on the Friday.On pick up everyone was nice and friendly and happy to help very welcoming. It was a great process I was giving all the information I needed for mot and service plus 3 month warranty. I was then walked to my car by Bryan and he went through everything around the car as an example showing me where the bonnet button was and how everything works inside. The car was nice and clean on pick up and well presented which was perfect.Even the after care service was spot on. I heard a noise on my car which did not sound right so I then phoned the dealer up and we agreed a date and time for me to bring the car back so they can take a look at it. After inspection they found the problem and promptly fixed the issue with no hassle at all the mechanic who served me was spot on and easy to talk to.Nice selection of cars and plenty to choose from and I definitely will recommed this dealership to anyone and I will be returning when it comes to my next purchase.Thanks again :)Kieran C
Very friendly approach. The car was fully serviced and ready and waiting for us to pick it up.JILL A
I had an excellent buying experience with Newton and Lee. The team are very professional, and the whole buying process was transparent and honest. I am very happy with the car they have supplied. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Newton and Lee again in the future and can recommend them wholehartedly. Thanks guys, Colin Goddard.COLIN G
Excellent customer service. No hassle, no rushing for a sale. Great, would recommendCRAIG R
Excellent, friendly, knowledgeable service.MARK E
Took the time to make sure all minor details were fixed before completing the sale (including delaying for ~1 week) rather than doing a quick fix to get the sale done.
Would use again.
Excellent service, a thorough service and MOT was completed on the car before they would let me take it away. I would heartily recommend Newton and Lee.ROBERT G
Can’t fault the service. Dealt with Joe who was great and friendly. No pushy sales tactics. Reserved the car , had a look and drive few days later. Pointed out few small things, all of which were sorted as promised including e re spray of the bonnet as had quite a few stone chips. Went for another look/ drive to make sure we were happy.. we were. So big thanks to all concerned, Alex is very happy with her first car .LAWRENCE B
Great customer service. Attentive but certainly not in your face. Gave really good advice and looked after me throughout. Good comms about the vehicle I was buying and time scales. I dealt with Ross but all the guys were really approachable. Good range of vehicles in stock if you aren’t quite sure what you are after.ROSS M
Easy, seamless experience with such kind and knowledge peopleNICHOLAS L
Arrived to have a look at a car which they had ready for me. No pressure during the test drive and look assertions the car.HENDER M

Brilliant friendly service in a relaxing atmosphere I dealt with Brian who goes above and beyond to help … although everyone is also helpful and friendly I have now bought five cars from Newton and Lee and never had a problemPAUL M
Excellent. I've only just collected the car yesterday so nothing to say about follow up, but experience so far has been very good. I really like that they retail cars with a new MOT and any advisories addressed so nothing to expect at next MOTMARTIN C
Very good, nothing too much troubleDIANNE L
Helpful and efficient. Made my replacement car available within 24 hrs. Good selection of cars in stockANDREW M
We found our car on auto trader, Newton & Lee had the car and Bryan answered all of our questions, sending proof of service history etc and offered me a favourable p/ex on my old car in advance. When we arrived the car wasn't quite ready as they'd decided to supply w fresh pads & disks on the brakes and to also do the tracking. The car was in tip top condition and impeccably detailed. We test drove the car and it was as good as it looked. Our only quibble was that the rear interior passenger lights don't work but other than that a great buy.SCOTT F
very friendly and made this an excellent experience.MALCOLM O
In general the garage was very good, car was as described sales person was polite if occasionally hard to get a hold of after the sale.STEVEN B
In general everything they said they'd do they did and the car is as expected and supplied fully serviced and valeted with all MOT issues fixed. Took a few trips to sort out an broken TPS sensor but nothing terrible.
Only negative point for me was the car needed a wishbone and this was done, but as they have no facilities for alignment it was supplied with quite bad alignment. If I'd left it it would have worn the tyres off it quite quickly. If on pick up I'd been made aware it needed an alignment I would have got one as it was I ended up paying for one out of my own pocket not a massive expense but one to be aware of if you're buying a car and they've done suspension work on it.
Other than that car is lovely and would use them again.
Understood I needed a bigger car and there was a few to choose from. Joe was brilliant and I saw the car on a Wednesday, took for a test drive on Thursday afternoon and bought and collected on Friday. Volvo XC70 in black.TIM R
Fast, efficient and very friendly service. Can't faultANDY S
Excellent service from Joe. Very helpful and informative. He addressed what few things I found wrong with the Honda hr-v I purchased. Although I travelled 25 miles to view this vehicle, customer service and vehicle excellent, hence the sale.stephen w
Absolutely faultless service! From Brian showing me my car to Joe doing the hand-over, it was a delight. The staff were all friendly and pleasant, the cars are all really clean, and their prices are very keen. This is a garage who I will happily recommend to friends and family, and when the time comes for a new car, I won't be going anywhere else. First class service!GAIL M
