First class company with first class service from Roy

Roy is an excellent friendly dealer who puts the customer first. Excellent range of cars for a variety of budgets and all low millage.
I highly recommend Friars Motor Company.
having brought many cars from dealers including big named. Friars was the first to fill tank up with fuel before collection. Its those little things that gives Friars the good recommendations they deserve.

A pleasure to do business with

I bought a Peugeot Horizon from Roy based on the website. I am pleased to say it was totally accurate. Roy was happy to bring the car to us over 50 miles away and demonstrated it with no pressure. It was a pleasure to deal with an honest and caring man.
3 Months later the engine warning light came on as we got home. I phoned Roy who was very apologetic although it was nothing to do with his preparation and said for me to get it looked at by a local garage I trust and he would pick up the bill. True to his word it has been sorted and back on the road. (coil pack fault if anyone is interested)
I always accept that cars will breakdown, it is how you are treated when they do, and Roy went above and beyond, Thank you Roy.

Roy showed us all the controls and the wheelchair system, patiently answering our questions as he went along. The car was in a very good clean condition. Roy was very knowledgeable about the car and it's performance. After a chat and a very welcome cup of coffee and biscuit he suggested that we should go away and think about the purchase. However we had already made up our minds that the car would be perfect for us and wanted to proceed with the purchase! A couple of days later he called to say that the car was taxed, MOT'd and ready to go and we drove it home. It was a very relaxed journey to Broadstairs and the car was easy to drive. We have made a couple of additions for the comfort of our two dogs and they also very much enjoy their trips out in it. Many thanks to Roy for making the whole buying experience so relaxing.

Great service!

What a refreshing change to find a used car dealer that genuinely wants to help with your needs and is not pushing for a sale! Roy was friendly and made the experience of buying our first wav vehicle very easy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing a mobility vehicle, very knowledgable and helpful.

Perfect service

We bought a car from Roy a couple of months ago. We can not praise Roy enough. He couldn’t have given us anymore help and advice. The after care he gave us was impressive we couldn’t fault him. Will definitely buy again from him when the need arises.

Excellent customer service.

Excellent customer service.
Roy was so helpful with his advice and bringing a car to us (with no obligation) for a demo..
Needless to say we purchased the car which Roy delivered.
Very pleased, the advice from Roy was spot on with no hard selling, it's made such a positive difference to our lives.

Buying a car can be a stressful & harassing experience, but with Roy Harding of Friars Motors it`s the complete opposite. Courteous, straightforward and patient, he takes you through the whole process in an unhurried way, and brings the car to you for both viewing and delivery. He is informative about the vehicle, and goes the extra mile in making the sale hassle free. Pressure salesmanship is nowhere to be seen. So thanks Roy. I expect to be a return customer.

Brilliant Customer Service

My Mum became wheelchair bound not that long ago and when it was clear she would not walk again it was time to trade in my mini for something more practicable. I work in Canterbury so when I came across Friars Motors, the selection, prices and location attracted me. Roy has been brilliant and helped me decide on the right vehicle. Any questions or queries I have had since he has only been too happy to help advise on and remedy. I cannot recommend highly enough. I will certainly point anyone in the direction of Friars Motors and buy from there again myself if I need to. Many thanks Roy, I can now take Mum on the holiday she's been waiting ages for.

Very helpful & friendly as we needed a new disability car to use as a family car & also can be used to give my mother in law some independence so she can get her mobility scooter in there & go shopping & have days out too.

Roy was easy to talk too,we had a good laugh over the best cuppa of the day. I got a fair price for my old car and a lovely new to me one which I am thoroughly enjoying.
The customer service was great and I will tell my friends all about it.
Many thanks for making this so easy.

EXCELLENT SERVICE

NOTHING WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE AND ROY WAS A PLEASURE TO DEAL WITH. EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY AND THERE WAS NO PRESSURE TO BUY. ROY BOUGHT THE CAR ACROSS SO I COULD TEST DRIVE AND HAVE A GOOD LOOK. HE THEN LEFT ME TO MAKE MY MIND UP WITH NO HARD SELL WHICH WAS A PLEASURE. WHEN I DECIDED TO GO AHEAD WITH THE PURCHASE, NOTHING COULD HAVE BEEN EASIER AND ROY DELIVERED THE CAR TO ME. A GREAT EXPERIENCE
