I have had my Octy repaired under warranty at Mullhollands.

I found the service to be second to none, and the overall set up excellent. The reception staff i dealt with (Rhonda) knew about the problem i had with the car straight away, even though the mechanics at Mervyn Stewart could not find it after 2 visits.

I was kept informed of what the problem was when the car was in the garage, and the mechanic even explained it all to me when i collected the car.

I will be using John Mulholland motors in the future.

Rating 5/5

Had a problem with the headunit in my car that required having a new one ordered, I was told in good faith by one of the sales guys that he would sort out the ordering for me and that it would take a couple of weeks, a fortnight passed and no word so rang the cust. service dept. and they knew nothing about it, and had not heard from sales about the order in question! Had to re-order the unit which took another ten days, when it did arrive the actual fitting etc. was hassle-free and it was an upgraded unit that was fitted (cd one instead of the old tape one that was in it). Apart from that on any other services or check-ups the staff have been friendly and helpful, and have explained any problems that might need sorting, and asked if I wanted the work done instead of going ahead and then charging me for it. Overall I'd give them 4/5, although due to the distance from where I live (40-odd miles) and the fact that my warranty has run out I'll probably go local from now on.

Well I live in Belfast and wouldn't even consider taking my car to Mervyn Stewart. John Mulhollands of Randalstown every time despite the distance.

I was purchasing a vehicle recently and went to John Mulholland motors as I live in Antrim.
It was quite frankly a terrible experience I was pounced apon as soon as I entered the showroom,they were only interested in the order trying to get me to sign up there and then without even knowing what I wanted in the first place.
I found John to be very intimaditing phone did not stop for 5 days to find out if I had made up my mind despite me telling them again and again I would get back to them.

That wasn't my experience of John Mulholland Motors at all to be honest but airing your opinion is what this thread is all about so good on ya. I will be arranging to get my car back into John Mulhollands soon for a few minor faults to be rectified and i'll update you on the customer service I receive although I expect it to be good. I hope your experience hasn't discouraged you from buying a Skoda.

i just had my car serviced again here. [yesterday] i,ve found the service team very friendly and helpfull; and not that expensive. £119. they even changed bulbs that were out i,d forgotten about and changed my aero wipers over. i can,t thank them enough. i,ll certainly be using them again.

ricks1 · 15-12-2006, 20:45

I bought a pre reg estate from Mervyn Stewart and was wondering how John Mulholland would treat me for servicing and warranty as the car was not bought from them. It would save me a lot of time and hassle as they are a lot closer for me to reach as I live on the north coast. Any replies appreciated, even from Mulhollands themselves. Thanks.

John, did you see my post on Page 1 of this, about the Estate in Mondello....was it you ?

octav.ed · 17-03-2007, 01:29

YEA IT WAS HIM M8. rhonda in service dept told me.

workman · 02-04-2007, 19:12

credit where due.

ok, after years of getting rubbish after sales service at the hands of a large vauxhall dealer; it's tip-top to be treated like a fellow human being by the people at mulholland motors. just got the octy back from it's first service today and the ladies in maintenance proved to be decent, no huffing & puffing like you might get from a certain dealer at mallusk, heck my car was even washed! finally i was made to feel like someone that has just shelled out 12k on a purchase rather than an inconvenience, perhaps my local vw dealer should ask john & his team for some training sessions less they put off more people like me?

all-in-all:

p.s. click from behind the glovebox was a mystery though, but all working well.
