I recently bought my Maserati Granturismo MC Stradale from Dean and Tim. The service they gave from first delivery to now has been exceptional. They looked after me very well during and after the initial sales service. I couldn't have asked for a better experience of buying a car. They made the whole process enjoyable and worthwhile. The car is amazing and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Looking forward to visiting the site on our National Supercar Owners Private Members Club Visit.

I am very happy with the service received, I had a rare edition Mercedes AMG and although a modern car, local dealers I had tried selling the car to previously did not appreciate its true worth and either offered a similar price to a regular model (not realising it was a rare edition) or weren’t interested in the car and were offering low ball prices to try and guarantee them high profit without any risk. I came across Baytree and dealt with Frankie who was excellent from start to finish. Immediately I knew that he knew the true value of the car and appreciated what it was. He reassured me throughout the process and maximised my return without taking any liberties, a very fair and honest sale! In end I received a lot more for my car thanks to Frankie, would highly recommend Baytree Cars.

Can’t recommend Baytree anymore excellent service really nice showroom with great stock. Tim helped me trade in my car and get me into my new one and made it effortless. Tim did a great job of keeping me informed of what was going on and made the whole process enjoyable. Real people not trying to sell you cars and upselling you things you don’t need like main dealers just concentrating on getting you into the car you want as easy as possible again thank you Baytree and especially Tim

I recently purchased my first Porsche from Baytree and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Frankie and Tim were both a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and I absolutely love my 911. Buying your first performance car can be quite daunting but the team went above and beyond and it's much appreciated - thank you all

A truly fantastic customer experience with BayTree Cars. Matt and Dean were nothing short of amazing and genuine people. These guys and the wider team are an asset to this company. I would highly recommend all customers to visit the BayTree showroom, you will not be disappointed as they have the best cars and specs to match.
