Last Name Show name online: Email Comments Many thanks to John and his colleagues at St. George Alfa. I'm very pleased with the 159 saloon I recently bought from him. The car was well presented and the level of detail on his excellent website puts most of the main dealers to shame. I appreciated John's flexibility over viewing and collection times which made the process of buying a used car far easier than previous experiences. I would buy again from St. George and happily recommend them to other buyers too. Martyn Bentley I'd been watching this site for a while and had a short list of vehicles I was interested in; however the demise of my 156 due to cam belt failure - my having ignored the recommended interval for change - failed at 132,000 miles (exactly 72,000 miles since previous change) prompted me to book up a test drive of an 05 156 2.0 JTS. On arrival I saw that the web pictures were indeed a true reflection of the car's excellent condition - it was as per description! As I knew the area John gave me the keys and let me test drive it with none of the fuss and paperwork you get from the usual garage. I was impressed and we shook hands on it within 30 mins of meeting. The car was prepped as agreed and ready for collection - on a Saturday - as was convenient for us. A subsequent technical failure (coil pack)was sorted quickly, no quibble, professional efficiency with the personal touch. I do love Alfas and once you try and appreciate their unique charm I'm sure you will too. I would anticipate being back to John at St George in 4 years time when it's time to change - excellent all round service! A+++++ adrian tucker We recently purchased a 159 from St George Alfa Romeo. Like everyone who visits St George, I had already decided that a Alfa (159) was the car I wanted so the viewing was simply to ensure that condition of the car was how it was descibed on the website...and I wasn't dissappointed!! The car was excellent, the price was reasonable and the knowledge shown by John was second to none. I was happy and confident with my purchase and the after sales was spot on too, which is always an indication of how good a company real is....thanks very much John. Darren Griffiths Having bought a GT from John and team a few weeks back I felt it only appropriate to pass on my thanks to all at St. George for making the process as hassle-free as possible. The car is a pleasure to drive and was presented in A1 fashion. I'll be back! Mark Edwards Recently bought a 147 from St George. I can concur with all the other testimonials that the website descriptions are absolutely precise! After much searching for my Alfa I only wish that I'd known about St George from the beginning! Excellent car, excellent service... thanks :) Ian Chapman I would just like to say thank you for providing a great car and with a no pressure sales approach, making the normal dread of changing cars a real pleasure. I arranged an appointment to view and test drive on Saturday, sat down and worked out a part exchange deal which is better than having lots of tyre kickers turning up at your home, and the vehicle was taxed and ready for collection Monday. The car put’s a smile on my face and anyone unsure of a change to an Alfa like I was should contact these guys’s they really do know what their talking about and only source top end vehicles. Geoff Capel We purchased a 3.2 drop nose spider from St George on 1st July 2010, and can wholeheartedly recommend them if you are looking for something very special. John and his team made the whole experience a pleasure from start to finish,and yes we did buy before the car had been photographed and placed on the website thanks to numerous e-mails and a very accurate telephone description. The only problem when you arrive is that you may be tempted by more than one car! The ten hour round trip was well worth it,and will be done again in the future! If you want to buy an Alfa,what are you waiting for? Iain and Helen Doublett St George provide an excellent service. From initial test drive right through to after sales. They are always available by phone and do anything to help and are understanding. My rear light actually got smashed the night before it was part exchanged and St George honoured the sale and let me pay for a replacement which they sorted themselves. This is not to mention the car which was in great condition, has been prepared well and they have spent a fair bit of money getting her back up to scratch with a high quality wheel refurb and repair of key marks on the doors. I would recommend St George to friends and family. Cheers! Mike Lazell I recently purchased a 147 from John and team. I have no hesitation in recommending this place. Friendly, efficient, honest, I could go on and on. They really exceed expectations. It was refreshing doing business in this type of environment and my trepidation over buying a new car soon disappeared. I'm new to alfa but am a complete convert and will buy from John again. He was always available pre and post purchase for advice etc. I had a minor problem with the car, after purchase, and it was sorted immediately the same day. For anyone considering buying locally, they also recommend a mechanic. I've now used his services and he too is 1st class. Roz Pieczora Absolutely thrilled with my drop nose GTV from John, I hadn’t seen it until I arrived to pick it up and it surpassed my expectations in all departments. I called John on the way home and asked him if he knew if anyone had invented an ‘in-drive-refueling-system’ so I wouldn’t have to stop driving it. Thoroughly impressed with John’s professionalism and attention to detail; I have no hesitation in recommending St George to others and I certainly hope to come back with a few more pennies for a Brera. But for now, back in the seat of the GTV! Trevor Pirie Just part exchanged my 147 for a Diesel GT - thoroughly enjoyed the drive back from Yate to Hove - a great motorway cruiser and apparently a real head turner in Gabbiano Blue. St George are a refreshingly good company to deal with - you cannot go wrong with the detailed photos of the vehicles and the fair part ex prices they offer. Bought from them before and no doubt will get tempted by something else on their website in the near future. No hesitation in recommending St George and their cars. Ed Briggs Just purchased an 02 156 veloce in nero black with full red leather interior. Stunning combination! The Guys at St George know their Alfa's and offer great service and advice. Highly recommended and would certainly use them again! Ashley Browne Just bought a 147 JTD Lusso (Apr 10) and the car is excellent. The pictures and description on the website were very accurate which prevented a wasted journey. I would highly recommend St George both from the quality of cars and the after sales support. Thanks to the mechanic who diagnosed what turned out to be a very minor problem when my local non Alfa garage got it completely wrong. Paul Randerson John has made the seemingly impossible possible...he has made the hassle and stress of buying a car completely disappear. His service is second to none. I have just bought an absolutely beautiful GT from ST George. The car was everything that the web site described and more. If you're looking for a very desirable and well presented Alfa Romeo I would highly recommend that you pay St. George Alfa Romeo a visit. Jeff Rees Just bought a GT jtd from StGeorge,s, after viewing various GT,s at other dealers i was a bit dubious at travelling 170miles to view 2 that they had in stock! i need,nt have worried,both were as described,good part ex pricereally friendly helpful service(and a lovely cuppa)long drive home was trouble free. would highly recommend anyone looking for an alfa to give them a call! Thanks again. Ian ODonnell Recently bought a 156 2.5 V6 Sportwagon from St George. I couldn't be more pleased with the car and with every aspect of the friendly, helpful and honest service. Highly recommended. Chris Rasmussen As a writer for CAR magazine and AutoExpress I knew that the most important accessory on any Alfa Romeo is 'the dealer'. Alfa's are a little bit quirky and a wee bit individual so you need a dealer that is also a little bit different. My Sportswagon is stunning, St George had sourced a beautiful example. But best of all, whilst the car is quirky, sulky, bubbly, gorgeous, sexy, and annoying at times (Alfa's don't like snow), any automotive tantrums were handled by John and his team. My next car will also be an Alfa and I would not dream of buying it anywhere else. In fact I just wouldn't risk it. Simon Sayce Bought a stunning 53 plate GTV from St Georges last Friday. Travelled from Lytham to pick up the car and am delighted to say that the car looked even better in the flesh than in the many photos provided on the website. Prior to making my decision to buy I utilised the live online support which I found really useful, and all my queries were handled with patience and good humour! StGeorges back up their great website with great customer care. Will definitely look at StGeorges again when I look to replace my GTV. All the best, Colin Colin Alexander Recently bought a Fiat Coupe from John and travelled from N.Ireland to do so on the strength of the description and the photos. Was a little apprehensive about this but I needn't have worried. Car was exactly as described in the advert, as for John himself I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to other potential customers, had a small problem re. paperwork (partly my own fault) but this was resolved by one phone call. Will certainly look at his stock list and consider trading with him again when the time comes to change. Thanks again from a satisified customer. Regards Fred. fred rafferty We recently bought a beautiful 2.0 JTS dropnose spider from John and his team. We found the honest photographs of the car helpful but even more helpful was the information gained from John via e-mail. As we were traveling from the North East we needed an honest assessment of the car which we received and were not disapointed when we collected it. It was a nice experience dealing with John and we would have no hesitation in recommending their service to anyone in the future. Denise Alan Atkinson Just bought a 156 2.4 jtd Sportwagon from John and Co... They're great people to deal with who love their Alfa's and it shows with the quality and selection they have in stock. To top it all off they make a cracking cup of coffee which is especially welcome after a long trip to view a car! Anyone looking for an Alfa can check St Georges out with confidence! David Richards I was looking for a very specific Alfa Romeo and was delighted when I came across one so wonderfully presented on St. George's website. Speaking to John via e-mail and then by phone, he was honest and straightforward finding me a great offer on my part exchange. John struck me as a guy I could trust. Coupled with the presentation and detailed photos of the car on the website, I felt confident enough to place a deposit down on the car having never seen it. The next day I arrived to collect. Craig and John were friendly and above all patient, letting me take my time and guiding me through filling in all the paperwork. Most importantly, the car was exactly as described. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with St. George and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend their service to anyone in future. Damiano Iannetta Too all those who are thinking of buying into Alfa ownership. I can whole heartly recommend you give John, Craig or Sarah a call. Here are folk who are dedicated to the Alfa's they sell. I changed from a Fiat Punto into a lovely late model 156. From the intial meeting on a cold Saturday afternoon to picking up my car on even colder friday morning. The Service we recieved has been first class. Going above and beyond to help sort out an issue when I had transfer my private plate onto my new alfa. Many thanks guys. Joe Santoro Until Saturday I was an Alfa Virgin, and the 156 I bought from St George has left a big wide smile on my face! I can only reiterate the other comments; John and his team have been a pure delight to deal with and the service they have provided - from initial enquiry, sending me the service details, test drive, to picking up the vehicle - has been exceptionally professional; they could not have been more helpful. I travelled 200 miles to see my 156 and would not hesitate in doing so again next time. St George makes for a refereshing change from franchised dealers and are truly worthy of the praise bestowed upon them. Mark Eccles Recently Purchased a 156 1.9jtdm. Car is brilliant, lovely low milage example, cars are all presented fantastically, You can be sure that they are the best examples around. John and craig are a pleasure to do business with and very genuine people. Thanks again, and look forward to doing business again in the future! David Philpotts Recently bought a 3.2 V6 GT from John and Craig. Can't praise or recommend them enough. Top guys, and they have really gone the extra mile with aftersales. Oh and the car is absolutely fantastic as well!! Mark Jeffs I recently bought a 3.2 V6 GT from John. The car is stunning and so is the service from John, Craig and Sarah. Travelled over 130 miles to pick up the car and had the single greatest drive back home ever. Thank you very much!! Neil Lewis I recently bought a black Alfa GT (Lusso) from John and Craig. The car is a joy to drive and the service both guys gave, especially Craig, was first class. The car looked new when I collected it!!! Thanks again for your great service. I fully recommend anyone to visit this dealer. You won't be disappointed. ALEX NICHOLLS Recently bought a lovely 147 from John, would reccomend them as he Craig were friendly to deal with the car was exactly as the advert described. Elaine Hart Bought a nice blue 159 the other day and cannot praise both John, Craig Sarah's service or the car itself enough. Went out of their way to make the buying process smooth and convenient despite the distance involved, on a Saturday too. Would recommend to anyone who wants a quality Alfa and friendly and accomodating service. Thanks again. Mark Embling Just purchased a Alfa 156 1.9 m/valve the service was excellent and will be coming back to trade up A.S.A.P.Thanks Ian Godsell I traded up my 156 to a 159 Q4 recently. The new car is superb and is matched by the excellent level of service from John, Craig and Sarah. If only all trade sellers were this good! Thanks to all. Mike vK Thanks to all staff at St George. Having purchased 156 GTA, the car was in superb condition as described in advert. norman stark Just a quick line to say how pleased both my Wife and I are with our recent purchase from St George. The car was immaculately prepared and John and his staff are a pleasure to do business with. I can wholeheartedly recommend St George as somebody to do business with. Superb service; thank you John and Craig. Paul Rogers Just to say a big thank you to John and his staff for the superb service. Like others I brought my lovely 145 over the phone and e-mail, she was delivered to my door less than 24hr after payment exactly as described and really is a joy to drive will defenately use John again when I look for my next little gem. Once again many thanks, so good to find someone u can trust. ade walfofd Exellent to do business with would recommend to enyone.

Doug Duthie Just received my Alfa GT from John and delivered to my door by Craig. The whole process was very straightforward and you really feel that you are dealing with a car expert and an honest deal with this company. I'm delighted with the purchase and would recommend St George to anyone looking for something special from the Alfa Romeo stable. Debbie Wilcox I have recently purchased a Alfa GT from John and Craig and would like to say how nice a experience it was!!! It was hassle free, no usual saleman pressure etc. Would recommend them to anybody. Thanks again. Colin Dent I particularly wanted an Alfa GT Q2 model and found just the car on the St.George website. Living in Norwich, I had to arrange the whole deal via e-mail and telephone. There were no problems at all - the car is superb and both John and Craig were nice people to do business with. I would certainly deal with them again. Many thanks. David Levy I wrote to comment on how great the service was that I received when I bought my car. Now I am writing a follow up to say how good the aftersales servcie is! Top Class Pre-Sales Service Amazing Sales Service Unbeatable After-Sales Service. This is how straightforward and honest everything should be. Thank you! Adam J Walker I had decided I wanted to buy an Alfa 147 and after a visit to autotrader I found my on St George's website... I dropped John an email and had a very quick and honest response... He took my Clio in part-ex and we arranged all the figures via email which was great as I live 60 miles away!... I also asked to have some custom alloys fitted that I bought third party and they were happy to have them delivered directly to them and were fitted ready for collection! It has been a pleasure to deal St George and I would recommend anyone who doesn't want to fall into the trap of dealing with a large (impersonal) garage, that they drop John a line... He made the whole transaction a pleasure! Steven Hicks I've just traded up my cherished Alfa 145 for a shiny new 156 due to new baby needing more space. It was a real breath of fresh air dealing with Craig and John. They genuinely know and love their cars and are a pleasure to deal with. I'll be looking to them again when I next upgrade in years to come. Cheers guys. Stuart McDonald I travelled 400 miles from Scotland to view one of Johns cars. It was a particularly rare model and I had my doubts as over the phone descriptions are rarely 100% accurate. Car turned out to be probably one of the best examples in the UK for the asking price and I know because I had looked for long enough. It was immaculately presented and the pictures didn`t do it justice. I dealt with Craig who was great with no sales pressure or pitch. I very rarely buy cars from anyone in the motor trade but in the case of St George the only advice I can give is believe the testimonials and have faith in the quality of their cars. Brian McKie Brian Mckie A great service, good communication and an honest deal. Thanks John. Adam J Walker I recently purchased an Alfa Romeo GTV from John a superb car, it was a pleasure dealing with John who is a rarity in the car trade a Gentleman and so helpful he deserves all the plaudits he receives. Brian Kilvington Its very rare that you find a person like John in the car business. All his cars were in excellent condition and my husband and I had a hard choice picking the car we wanted. John was very helpful and nothing was to much trouble, eventually we picked the car we wanted and are very pleased with it. I would recommend going to John if you are after a saab in excellent condition. TRACY GRIFFIN Found both John and Craig extremely helpful and honest to deal with. Struck a deal onlne based on part exchanging my Alfa Spider.I was very impressed with the rapid response to all e-mails and phone messages from John, even though he was away in Spain at the time! The photos on the website really portrayed the cleanliness and condition of the 147 I have purchased. Very satisfied with both the car and customer service. Would recommend to others and will. Ed Briggs It is rare to find such a genuine and honest motor dealer in the trade. John has an eye for detail, he is meticulous and has a good selection of quality vehicles at reasonable prices. We recently purchased the amazing Alfa Romeo GTV Cup with only 46,000 miles on the clock. It is perfect in every detail; taught yet supple, really clean inside and out, with full service history and traceability. It shows that John hand picked it from the very small number of these cars that were made. It is exactly how I would like a second hand car to be, showroom quality, barely run-in and excellent value. John and Sarah are delightful couple and St George certainly is a shark free zone! They understand the concept of value and certainly we would recommend them to any other prospective purchaser of an Alfa Romeo or Saab. Dan Schnurr I bought my 147 from John and Sarah a few weeks ago and they made the whole sale process so easy. From viewing the car to driving it away took just a couple of days. The car is great and a pleasure to drive. Thanks to you both for a very pleasant experience. Ali Prockter I bought an Alfa 147 from John and Sarah a couple of weeks ago - the car's great and I thought the service was very professional. They even posted me a spare part that I noticed was missing when I got home. I would really recommend St George to potential buyers! Chloe Hoyle Bought a 2001 Seat Leon Cupra at a very competitive price and I'm very happy with the purchase. John and Sarah provided a competant, friendly service and were a pleasure to do business with. I would recommend their business to everyone and would definately use again. Guy Joyner I exchanged my Alfa GTV against a 166 and I am extremely pleased with the result. Was heartbreaking to see my other car go but the deal was straight forward and apart from a few niggles which I was quickly able to resolve I am very happy. John was very forthcoming and cannot be more applauded for his excellent webpage which is spot on. You get what you see. Thanks. Andreas Weichselbraun Had my BMW 750i for two weeks now and it is amazing. John spent a lot of time and effort making sure that a couple of issues were ironed out before I picked it up. Nice man, great to do business with. Would highly recommend him to anyone. Tim Spencer Great service from all at St George, didn't actually meet John but was extremely helpful on the phone and Craig was very helpful and personable. The car has not disappointed, will not hesitate to buy from them again. Thanks! Michael Nethercott A superb service from John who gave me all the reassurance and detail needed to make a long trip up on the train. Not disappointed on my arrival the Alfa GT was in superb condition as indicated. Would highly recommend without hesitation. Nicholas Dobson Great service from John and Sarah. The hot drinks after our 4hr trip were very welcome. John was very helpful and the Mercedes 430 is stunning. He even provided a new wing mirror to replace a slightly damaged one ( it does not get better than that) Thanks for a painless car buying experience. Nigel Jones I have had my new Alfa 147 for a week now, and I am so pleased with the service that I have received from John. Everything he said he would do he has done and made buying a car so easy and I will recommend him again also when I'm ready for my next Alfa I'll be back ! Thanks Ali Pickford Have bought a beautiful Alfa Romeo 156 from St George today, and can honestly say they were a pleasure to deal with. John was extremely helpful and certainly knows his stuff on Alfa's. Great service. Simon Chapman I'd just like to say, if you're looking to buy a car off St George you can be assured of the highest quality. Unfortunately, my Girlfriend and I never had the privilege of meeting John the proprietor face to face, only over the phone, although his associate Craig was more then helpful. The Alfa 156 we purchased was in showroom condition. The description on the website is spot on in every detail. Many thanks John; I look forward to doing business with you in the future. Marc Rees Thanks John for the friendly and efficient service; The 147 is fantastic to drive an absolute bargain in my opinion! St George are a pleasure to deal with and I wouldn't hesistate to buy from them again. Thanks again, Mark & Vanessa. Mark Philcox Just wanted to say having just purchased my second car from st george how easy and smooth people to deal with very fair and helped me through with finance very easily and had fabulous deals on both cars. Would be more than happy to purchase my next vehicle with them. Thanks again to sarah and john. Regards Steve. Steve Harkness John part ex'd my 2002 Alfa 156 for a very reasonable price and i'm very happy with the GTA he sold me! Many thanks, hope you enjoy my 156 as much as I did!! Jon Francis Really pleased with the car, good friendly service and really easy to deal with.

Friendly and efficient sale - and a full tank of petrol. The advert description was extremely accurate. No BS. I've already made recommendation St George to friends - its surprising how many folk want an Alfa GTV once they see one up close ;-) John coped most admirably with the barrage of questions I fired at him well after after the deal was done. (even when he was about to board a plane for his holidays!). Top Notch. Tom O'Carroll I just wanted to say how pleased I am with my new GTV. Great service and friendly !. I'll go back and see what you have when its time for another for sure. ALL THE BEST DARREN Darren Phillips John is a nice guy and as far as I can tell he has sold me a good car at a fair price. No complaints! Paul Chambers Hi John and Sarah. Really enjoying the Alfa 147 T-Spark I bought from you... so quick and great fun to drive!!! Thank you for such a smooth sale. A pleasure to meet you both. Pete Mike/John Thanks for a wonderful car. This is the second car I have bought from this company. I highly recommend them. Thanks again Gayle John / Mike Many thanks. As you know I travelled from Thurso to collect the car and feel that every mile was worth. Fabulous car, good price and a truly exceptional service, with Mike making time to meet me out of regular hours when I collected the car. I have never bought a car so quickly, or been so pleased - which pretty much sums up my first experience with St George. Kind regards and many thanks, Chris Excellent car in lovely condition, first class service, thoroughly reccommended. Rob Knight. Thank you for an easy and honest transaction. You were a pleasure to deal with, and the car is better than our wildest dreams. I'm not sure i've ever even been in a car that nice, least of all owned one. We have a very happy 13 year old. Thanks again, Rachel. p.s I've never seen a shiny engine before, thanks. Execellent sellers, no pressure sell and very helpful, strongly recommend them and would buy from them again. thanks Thanks John for making the purchase hassle free. It's nice to feel you're being dealt with honestly. The car is excellent and when the time comes to change I'll certainly be having a look on the website again. GOOD NEWS!

I feel like a kid with a new toy. Thank you for your generous price we really do appreciate it. Excellent. Highly recommended! Thanks guys, car was exactly as described. Nice guys to deal with, very happy, can't complain at price! Immensely pleasing pressure-free transaction. Car is delightful - what a bargain! Just got back from your place and im so happy with the car! What a great drive! Hatty will be using it most of the time and im quite jeleous. Efficient and extremely helpful. Magnificent car. What a Bargain!!!!!!!!! Hi, Thanks for the stock list - you certainly have some bargains there! However I am very pleased with the car I bought from you a few months ago. I have meant to let you know how satisfied I have been with it and with the service I received from you, so I am happy to take this opportunity to recommend you to anyone contemplating a purchase. I'm delighted with the car and it was a pleasure to meet John. Just to let you know that the car went beautifully on the way back....despite hideous traffic in London (2 1/4 hrs. just to cross town!), the auto box is exceptionally smooth - quite the best I've driven. Tim Brilliant car, great value and very smooth transaction. Absolutely top company - would happily buy from them again.
