hi everyone i have been looking at a vanquish volante at the chichester garage really nice car but the only problem is im in leeds and if i do the deal it will be without looking at the car in the flesh which i know is stupid but they are a main dealer and they say the car is immaculate
whats your thoughts
thanks neil

Not had any issues with them but I only get my car serviced there.

I was up there the other week for a service and probably saw your car.

I did the same as you but I was 3000miles away when I bought mine but this was from Works. First time I saw the car was when I was picking up.

Harwoods looked after my son's V8v and my DB9 for five years until three years ago. I couldn't fault them, they were honest, helpful and always did an excellent job. We have both switched to Porsches snow, so no axe to grind.

I use them for servicing and when looking around the used cars they seem to be up to the high standard you would expect.

I am not sure about Harwoods but some dealers are becoming reluctant to sell a car without the customer inspecting it on their premises due to distance selling rules.

It's a 40 minute flight from Leeds to Southampton airport, make the trip much easier!

I've had soem service work done by Harwoods and no problem at all. I've dealt with the sales team a couple of times but never quite got the deal I was offered from other dealers, but they were reasonable enough to deal with. I don't think you should have problems buying from them

I bought my new Vantage V12S manual from them via email and phone, as I live in York.
I dealt with Steve. Nice guy always replied as promised and we finally managed to agree a deal. But I had to say no on two occasions before they agreed to my price.
Bought the car without seeing it but as a new car there was no worry for me.
Won't be returning for servicing as it's too far away. But would recommend them highly.
Good luck.

I have bought 4 Jaguars from them and my DB9. Been using them for nearly 20 years and just placed an order for a 1st Sept delivery on an F-Pace so Jag number 5.

Can't fault them. Martin Young the Service Manager is a gem.

You may well be OK with these guys but the above statement is scary.

I dont associate any Main dealer of any marque with being able to appraise a car correctly.

Immaculate can still mean its had a shunt.

I would always go to have a look at the car.
Indeed when I finally get around to buying a classis Corvette I'm intending to fly to the dealer in Ohio to inspect the car.
