Skoda Elroq.

This was our first visit to the Skoda showroom in Inverness and were so impressed with the quality of the Skoda Elroq we decided to buy one after a test drive. Your sales specialist Sarah Micallef was absolutely brilliant, great knowledge of the car and assistance throughout the sale. It reminded me of how small family run car dealers used to be, warm, friendly, helpful and courteous. Well done and thank you.

Fantastic service experience

Highland Audi were fantastic from initial meeting right through to handover of my new car. Not the first time I’ve bought from them - highly recommend them for quality of service and customer care.

Great service from Elizabeth at Hawco…

Great service from Elizabeth at Hawco VW Inverness. Car went in for some warranty items and a service and everything was done well with minimum of fuss. Car was clean when I got it back and all the driver aides working and set up as I had left the car. This has given me a lot of confidence with the service department and I have bought the extended warranty, Mot, roadside assistance and service package for the next 2 years. Can't praise them too highly, good work, happy customer!

Marianna made the experience so smooth…

Marianna made the experience so smooth and easy to do. Everyone within the Inverness Van Centre are so polite, helpful and kind.
This is our third time within a year of buying a new van from this branch for our growing business. We now wouldn’t go anywhere else and I hope to see them again real soon!
