Pentagon began selling cars way back in 1991 and our mission when we started out is still unchanged today; to make car-buying and servicing easy and affordable and to treat people like we would want to be treated.
Since those early days we've grown quite a bit. We're now one of the UK's top 30 dealer groups, but unlike most large dealer groups we haven't forgotten how important our customers are.
We like to think that we're on a mission to eradicate the things we hate about some other dealers and car supermarkets, like those extended warranties they try to frighten you into buying. Our aim is to sell great cars at fair prices.
We hope we serve you well.

By simply employing decent mechanics who respect the customers car when they even just get into it would be nice, warrentees and the like are ok but I just find nearly every mech I have used seems bored of cars and treats yr prde and joy as if it was a £500 bucket cos its "just a car". Good luck to pentagon if they are different.

That's why I only trust Mark at Rapid or Roger at Monkfish. They are proper mechanics (i.e they can rebuild engines etc), not fitters (who just replace whole bits).

Apart from minor routine servicing, which a mechanic friend did for me, my HSV's were always looked after & modified by Mark (now at RapidGB).
Once I was Mark's workshop when Mike Costin, the Cos in Cosworth, dropped by to discuss with Mark details of an historic rally car engine that he was building.
That reinforced my faith in Mark being a very "serious" mechanic.
However, I was somewhat surprised that rather than driving some serious bit of exotica, or at least a classic Ford Cosworth, Mr. Costin's choice of vehicle at the time was an old diesel Renault

Any fairer on parts prices? How much for:
Prices exclude VAT and presumably any state taxes. $2.056 = £1
