It is no surprise why you are constantly getting 5 star reviews. Initially had my Vitara booked in for service and MOT on 24/11 in Ashton, however having seen your Covid video, I was not able to conform to your regulations .After a call to your servicing department Barry suggested getting my car picked up and dropped off on the 25/11. Absolutely worked for me. Car picked up and returned immaculately cleaned by Paul. Cannot fault anything. Mr Appleyard i have now been dealing with your dealership in Ashton for some time, and you have a fantastic team there. Special recognition to Barry(servicing)Paul(valeting) Thank you and keep up the great work
