Just found out after taking apart my car to check the cabin filter that it hasn't been replaced in over 5 years and I had a service on July of the year before saying the cabin/pollen filter looked ok
Very disappointed and angered by this as I paid for a major service and didn't receive this.

A solid 5 star experience at Volvo Exeter - Friendly team and a great car. While the overall process was positive, I think a couple of areas like communication clarity could benefit from some fine tuning, the team want the best for you and i would happily recommend them.

Good afternoon Sidney,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. I’m really pleased to hear that you were made to feel welcome right from the outset — a warm greeting, a smile, and even a chat over a coffee really do set the tone.
It’s great to know that Harrison was excellent throughout. His knowledge of the car and its systems clearly made a strong impression, and I’m glad the follow‑through matched that same high standard. Hearing that your car was presented in first‑class condition is the icing on the cake.
Your feedback means a lot to the team.

There was no pressure just lots of information and advice. George spent several hours with me and then provided excellent backup care after I had purchased my car.

I like Volvo and this dealership…

I like Volvo and this dealership treated my dad with respect and were very helpful when he was buying his new XC60. But he had problems with his parking sensors one of them was faulty they sorted this under warranty which was good of them 2 months before his warranty expired 2 more senses went wrong but he didn’t report it until after. I told him to let them know that it’s the same set of sensors on the rear. To let them know when they started playing up they didn’t want to hear it. Out of warranty means £££££. The tried to offer him £600+ billion for sorting two faulty sensors on the same wiring loom as the previous one that went faulty. Safe to say he won’t be renewing his car as a Volvo.custome service went downhill then.

Seamless Purchase!

I found the vehicle online for a very competitive price, however it was over 400 miles away at Volvo Exeter. I reserved the vehicle and between the Branch Manager, Darren and my Sales Advisor, Eliott the purchase could not have been more seamless.

They sent numerous videos of the vehicle to make sure I was satisfied, explained every step of the process which made it all transparent and even discounted the price of the vehicle after purchase due to Vertu commencing a Nationwide sale.

The vehicle then got delivered to my front door in Scotland and their after sale was fantastic, making sure I was 100% satisfied.
