We took delivery of our lease vehicle today and are very pleased with the overall experience. The vehicle was delivered sooner than expected, which was a great surprise and much appreciated.

Communication throughout the process was excellent, with regular updates provided and any queries answered promptly. The delivery itself was smooth and hassle-free, and the vehicle arrived exactly as expected.

Overall, a very positive experience from start to finish. Thank you to the team for making the process straightforward and efficient. We would happily recommend your service to others.

Exceptional customer service. Sales staff are personable offering expert advice tailored to your specific needs. They are attentive and prioritise customer experience discussing various models and options and on test drives. They are also efficient with the boring paperwork. Highly recommended.

Got myself an EV5 from Paul. Great car and service. We had a few issues with the new system as it’s a new showroom but it was as still quick and painless experience.

We've used Waylands Volvo Oxford for two EX30 services lately, and both times the car was collected & returned by Harry. Harry is always polite, pleasant and professional, so I will continue to use the collection option in the future.

Extremely helpful sales staff.

Jon Green was extremely helpful from minute one! Listening to our summary of what we wanted from our Volvo. He went through several examples on site and matched our requirements with another car in the group. This would take a while to arrive on site, no problem for Jon and Waylands of for us. The new mild hybrid cars are complex and need a little explanation as to how it all works! This will be our 5th Volvo. When we were happy we placed the order and after a test drive all was in place to collect our car s few days later.

Very poor

Very poor. I went to test drive a Volvo XC90 drive half an hour to see it only to find out the MOT ran out 3 months ago and so I couldn’t drive it. The salesman and sales manager couldn’t have been less helpful. I wouldn’t go back to Waylands. Fortunately other dealers are available.

Outstanding Service by Led Lisiecki

I recently purchased a used Volvo XC40 plug-in hybrid from Waylands in Reading, and Jed was an outstanding salesperson. I was looking for a very specific specification, and he managed to source exactly the model I needed.
He was not pushy at all, but rather helped and guided me through the entire buying process. He has also been incredibly supportive with follow-up assistance, offering continued guidance should I have any questions. Waylands must be delighted with the level of service he gives their customers, as he is clearly a massive asset to their business. Highly recommended!

I recently purchased a Volvo XC40 from Abi Johnson

I recently purchased a Volvo XC40 from Waylands Volvo Bristol and wanted to say a huge thank you to Abi for the exceptional service she provided throughout.

From the very first conversation, Abi was kind, professional, knowledgeable and genuinely caring. She listened carefully to what I was looking for, understood my priorities immediately, and reassured me that she would help me find the right car. Most importantly, she delivered on that promise.

Abi was patient, responsive and supportive throughout the entire process.

As a woman walking into a car dealership on my own, the experience can sometimes feel intimidating, but Abi made me feel completely comfortable and valued from start to finish.

Exceptional customer service deserves to be recognised, and Abi has been absolutely outstanding. She is a real credit to Waylands and Volvo, and I cannot thank her enough for making the whole experience such a positive one.

Thank you, Abi!
