My 1st Honda Vcl - great buying experience.
Just bought my first used Honda HRV from Vertu Durham and was delighted with my buying experience from start to finish. No hassle, no fuss, every step of the process carefully explained by a respectful, courteous salesman (Stephen) - great product knowledge. Friendly staff on site, parking no problem and great aftercare support. A very professional service. Very satisfied with the whole experience and of course, my new (used) car.

The service I have received trading in my car for a brand new Civic, and switching the private plates has been outstanding. I dealt with Natalie, Manny, and Stephen who are credit to Vertu Honda. Thank you so much for your help and patience. This is my first Honda, and I'm thrilled I have found a local dealership which I really get on with.

Natalie, Manny, and Stephen will be delighted to hear your kind words — their help and patience clearly made a real difference. We’re also really pleased you’ve found a local dealership you feel comfortable with, and we hope you continue to enjoy your first Honda.

I first visited Vertu Honda in Durham to look at a Motability car i had viewed online.I was greeted by Stephen who is one of the Motability team and he showed me the car I was interested in.He offered me a test drive which I accepted and off we went.During the drive he gave me lots of information on the car and I was very impressed with the car and his knowledge.
I have just taken delivery of the car and both the car and Vertu Honda are brilliant.
I would certainly recommend this dealership and their staff after my personal experience.
