Nice experience buying my first car
I had a couple test drives before purchasing my first car at the Carsa Gloucester branch and found the customer service really good and friendly. Xander helped with the test drives and going through the final buying process and was a credit to the branch as he was very helpful throughout the process, explained things in good detail and made it as easy as possible.
