Very well looked after, the only one issue was unfortunately the vehicle could not be looked at for nearly 2 weeks. That for the dealership is probably a good thing as they are so busy. But once in the workshop the service and communication was Excellent.

Using John Darke was a good experience for us, the staff were extremely helpful and kept me informed all the way. The repair was fast and simple after I’d tried and failed with 2 local non dealership garages. The garage was recommended to me by a local mechanic in Grimsby and said I’d get far better results with John Darke, Louth than Hartwell in Grimsby, and I am sure I did. 5 stars from me you guys and I’ll definitely use you again and recommend
