Carlingo Reviews 

Phil Schofield
The experience i had buying my Peugeot 308 car from start to finish was friendly and professional. I'm very happy with my purchase and i would definitely recommend Carlingo for buying a car. Thanks very much to Danny.

Fantastic experience with Carlingo Harrogate. Amy Farmer looked after me from start to finish and did a fantastic job. I had a higher value car to trade in, so I was taking a car and receiving cash back as well, but all the steps were explained very clearly and I was fully informed throughout. Nothing was too much trouble - the level of service was better than my last car purchase at a Mercedes main dealer, honestly! I would 100% recommend Carlingo Harrogate (and recommend you ask for Amy).

Stuart was great, really relaxed car buying experience. Didn't feel pushy or salesy like other garages we went to and were allowed to test drive a couple of cars to get a better understanding of what we wanted. Very happy and ended up with a very nice car!!

Overall pleased with things initially but after having a good inspection of the car at home I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the vehicle. Inside I found a prescription for the previous owner and outside the windows have a green fungus or moss along the bottom seal. Have also discovered the air conditioning doesn’t work properly, something I would have expected to be checked before the car was released to me. Everything else seems okay but little things are important and I think finer details could certainly be done better.

Staff not pushey very friendly easy to chat with and answer all questions.

I travelled from Birmingham to complete the purchase of a 2019 Skoda Octavia estate, which had 42,628 miles on the clock, and whose provenance included two previous owners, the last one being in Essex. Stuart was my first contact with the dealership, and he demonstrated competence, transparency and no guile in our first communications over the phone. When I arrived at the dealership I met Sam, who showed me the car and came with me on the test drive. Sam also demonstrated competence, defined as great professionalism and etiquette in dealing with me, alongside an in-depth knowledge and comprehension of the process in hand. Then I met with Joey, who finalised all the admin with me for handover of the car. Joey was also delightful in his conduct. As for the car, it is perfect and both my wife and I are unreserved in recommending Carlingo for their care of service and focus upon the provision of used cars with good provenance and ongoing good serviceability.

On handover I couldn’t properly check the car over and open the car doors fully to check properly as it was parked in between 2 cars so impossible.
When I arrived home, my husband commented on the general state of the car as it had stains spots on the passenger seat.
A couple of deep scratches where a seatbelt had been caught and not touched up.
The sales man had pointed out a paint defect next to the petrol cover which had been passed on. But wasn’t done on my pick up day
We noticed as well the bonnet liner was missing, that lines the under bonnet to protect the paintwork of the bonnet etc.
the car was dirty and not catered properly.
Not what I expected from the company

The car we went to view was exactly as expected. No hidden problems. It was spotlessly clean and ready to go. There was no hanging around waiting to be seen. The staff were efficient and professional and made purchasing the car an easy transaction. The fact that it's an independent company shows, with the staff taking pride in their work.
We would recommend Carlingo to anyone.

Great service, friendly, answered all my questions.

I was given time to look at cars and choose which I wanted to test drive.
Offered space to decide what I wanted to do and to ask questions.
Great handover and help setting up things like radio/phone.

FIRST CLASS SERVICE FROM START TO FINISH, BOTH NICOLA AND RICHARD DEALT WITH ME IN A VERY PROFESSIONAL AND FRIENDLY MANNER. PAYMENT WAS MADE WITHIN MINUTES OF VIEWING THE SKODA CAR, AND THE PRICE WAS VERY GOOD OFFER MORE THAN I HOPED FOR, WILL BE MY FIRST CALL NEXT TIME I HAVE A VEHICLE TO SELL.

Was advised to look at Carlingo from a friend that had used them previously and can wholeheartedly say…we are SO pleased we did!
Spotted a cracking little Aygo for our daughter having just passed her test and after making contact with Danny he couldn’t have been more helpful.
Initially missed the 1st test drive due to my work commitments, but Danny immediately sorted out another time and was very welcoming and informative when we met him.
Needless to say, a bit of cash lighter, another car on the driveway and one VERY happy daughter.
All in all, a fantastic experience from the guys at Carlingo Harrogate…from Danny, Amy and Joey on vehicle delivery date…THANK YOU 👌👌👌👌

Everyone was really helpful, this made the purchase really smooth.

Quick, smooth and no hard sale. Thanks team

Fantastic customer service! Chose my car and drove it home on the same day! Thank you to you all!

Ease of purchase

Easy and seem-less transaction from start to finish. The car was well presented and drove the test route which offered varying roads for an ideal test drive.
My salesperson acted very professionally giving advice and guidance during my trade in and purchase.
The initial salesperson (Adam) who couldn’t attend my test drive gave full and thorough attention to helping me choose Carlingo as the place to buy from and trade my previous car in.

Quality car at good price. Efficiently handked

Polite sales team efficient and informative.
