I first arranged a viewing which took place on a ramp with a very detailed walk around with Simon in which he pointed out all of the flaws obvious and not so that I entered into the purchase with my eyes fully wide and open. The whole experience was very positive and if I need another air cooled VW or any work doing on mine...Absolute VW and Simon will be my first point of contact. Thanks again.🙂Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Richard Green2024-05-10We can't really do the review enough justice,we dropped off a very poorly T5 and feared the worst... Simon and the team were very pragmatic and we agreed to work through the issues in stages. Get it running/MOT/Service. A breath of fresh air, as an ex mechanic I'm always dubious but Simon was on the phone every step of the way. It really couldn't have gone smoother, unfortunately for us the bus had been neglected for many years and we were almost ready to call it a day. Step up Absolute VW We picked her up today and it really does feel like a different van. If you want an honest answer good or bad get booked in , the garage is state of the art and it's evident that it's designed around the staff 💚Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Fat Tbastard2024-05-08Saved me on a breakdownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Caroline Swift2024-04-23We are the proud owners of “Bonnie” a 1988 T25 1.9 petrol engine with a high top, not perfect by any means but we wanted a RHD T25. There’s a list of things that need doing but Simon helped us prioritise the things that needed doing first so we can enjoy the van this summer. The key jobs that have been sorted out so far include a leaking skylight, which proved to be a challenge as it had to be modified to fit perfectly. The second job was getting the engine to run better. They will be stripping down the carburettor in the autumn but for now it’s been “tweaked”, runs great and it doesn’t cut out when it’s cold. They also found the source of a leak in the passenger footwell. This again was a bigger job; there was a rotten area at the corner of the windscreen. They managed to cut the rotten area out and weld in a new piece and seal it properly so no more leaks. In time we’ve been advised thatit may need a more solid weld bit for now it’s great. We’re glad Absolute VW are close by. Simon and the team really know these vehicles well. We know that it will take a long time and regular maintenance to keep Bonnie running but that’s OK, she’s nearly 40 years old, and we know she’s in good hands.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Dave T2024-04-19Having just bought a vehicle from Absolute VW, I would like to say that Simon was fantastic throughout the whole process and went above and beyond to make sure the experience was stress free. it was a pleasure to do business with them and would recommend their services without hesitation.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Albert Tonks2024-04-16We have trusted our beloved T2 to Simon & his great team at Absolute VW for 11 years now and cannot speak highly enough of them. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is looking for an honest garage to take their van to.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Vic&Andy Jones2024-03-17Absolute VW worked on our T4 Autosleeper Trooper last year. We had ongoing issues with the alternator. They were very professional and friendly. Since then, she runs so smoothly. We have just dropped it off for an MOT. It's Sunday and we have just dropped off our T4 as we can't drop it on during their working hours due to work. Wow, they have a secure and easy process to leave vehicles out of hours. They supply one entry only access codes to enter their gated forecourt.
