We just bought a second hand Golf. We had a great experience with the Sales team. Craig was professional and really helpful. He wasn't pushy at all. He made the experience of buying a car really easy, and we both felt really comfortable with his approach. I would definitely recommend the sales team at Esplanade in Cowes. Brilliant!
