Thank you very much for the service book to our Corsa , which I received today.
The car is going extremely well , and I can't thank you enough. It's just been under a month ago that we picked the car up, but we have covered around 1700 miles in it already.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your wife for the hospitality shown to us when we came to your house to pick up the car, and inform you of how impressed we both were in our dealings with you. We found the service you provided to be courteous, friendly , professional and above all honest. I would and will without hesitation recommend you to anyone thinking of buying a car.
Should the need ever arise do not think twice about allowing others to contact me, for a reference as to the service you provided.
Once again, thank you and i am sure we will be in contact again.

Hi Jonathan,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your wife Ursula for the hospitality shown to me after my flight from Belfast to pick up my "Dualfuel Astra Estate" The car is going extremely well and returned 208miles for £11.14 of gas on the A50/M6 on my return journey. I have covered around 2,000 miles in it already, I can't believe the saving comparing it to my 2.3 Turbo
Volvo, the car was exactly as described I would recommend you to anyone thinking of buying a car.

Just a quick note Jonathan, which you may use if you wish.
We are absolutely delighted with our Astra Estate, which, given that I do a very high mileage, (I've put 5,000 miles on it since collecting it in June)has dramatically reduced our motoring costs.
Your after sales service has been second to none, and I have have, without reservation, recommended you to work colleagues.
Thank you again.

Dear Jonathan,
Thank you for this information(re congestion charging)and thank you for your wonderful
customer care. My daughter has been delighted with the car and
I must say the LPG addition to the Mini has made an already
terrific little car an even better one.
If you can put LPG into a Ferrari, I'll buy it from you!
Best wishes,

Hi Jonathan,
Just wanted to say thank you for the way you dealt with my purchase of the Volvo 02 plate S40 S.
I was extremely impressed that you delivered the car to me on New Years Eve as I had said that I
needed it by the 2nd January.
The explanation of everything and the paperwork side of things was absolutely great. As an already
converted LPG user it was great to be able to obtain an LPG car from you with such ease.
Your co-operation throughout and your desemination of information was great. When I come to the
stage of looking for another LPG car in the future I shall definitely come back to you and will
recommend you to anyone else I know that is looking to purchase an LPG car.
Also your website is one of the most proffesional and informative that I have seen.
Thank you very much for everything.

Hi Jonathan
Thought you might like to know, just had weeks holiday in the
North of Scotland just over 2000 miles and apart from the lack
of LPG ( only seems to be one now on the East side North of Inverness).
The car (02 plate astra)behaved impeccably not a murmur at all. It is not a thing I would
like to do normally with a new car after just having it for a week.
But once again thanks and I would not hesitate to recommend you to my
friends if they needed an LPG car.

Hi Jonathan.
Well my first year has passed in the Astra, and I have to say its been the best decision I have made in my driving life.
I have covered 42000 miles and the car has not missed a beat. Other than regular servicing, the only things I have done
were replace the flasher unit and have the A/C regassed.
I have attached the latest copy of my fuel usage spreadsheet which has a few additions, and you will see that the car
has SAVED me £2,238 pounds this year over using petrol. I have also included my road fund, insurance and servicing costs,
and the bottom line is that the car costs me 10.1 PENCE a mile to run in total. This is incredible. Add to this the fact
that I have done 9,500 miles on company business at 40p/mile generating £3,800 and you will see that I have almost run
the car for free for this last year.
Very rarely have I had any trouble getting gas anywhere in England, in fact I have only bought 4 gallons of petrol this year
which works out at 10,000 miles per gallon, and that usually raises a laugh when I tell people. The car still has all the
signwriting on and looks the same as the day I bought it. It still generates a lot of interest, and I have shown countless
people how it all works.
Once again, thanks for all your help in buying the car, and here's to many more LPG miles.

It is now 2 years and eight months since I purchased RJ03 ***
(Volvo V40 lpg) from you and she still puts a big smile on my
face each time I get in and start up. I have been very pleased
with the car which just gets on with the job with no fuss.
I do quite a lot of motorway travelling these days so the miles
are mounting - just touching 98000 now - but regular oil changes
will hopefully keep things running smoothly. Needless to say the
savings due to LPG go without saying.
Should have done it years ago.

Hi Jonathan, A quick note to say many thanks for your hospitality last month when I came to look at cars. I have to say that I am very pleased with the Focus that I bought from you. 300 miles on £20 is a serious bonus and the car drives fantastically. Many thanks for all your information, and for your hospitality while we were with you, and thanks again for the car. I look forward to buying from you again in the future. Kindest regards, Rick Armitage.(Wales)6th July 2007
Hello Jonathan , just a quick thank you. Your professional honest service together with your hospitality makes doing business with you a real pleasure. Keep up the good work.Thank you once again ..kind regards..

Dear Jonathan
Felt I had to write to say just how pleased I am with my Ford Focus I purchased from you. I freely admit I had some concerns about economy ,availability and running of my new car but as you so rightly forecast I have become a convert !
I compared last Mays fuel costs (diesel) with this May (05) LPG and to my very large surprise I had spent £75 LESS this year (my routine stays almost the same so I felt a good measure of economy etc) It is nippy on the motorway, and a very comfy ride even my husband has remarked he is far more comfortable in this car than my Peugeot 406.
I began smiling at my Focus and am still smiling !
Thank you Eco cars !

Hi Jonathan
More than happy to be quoted as saying that you were enormously helpful, picking me up from the
station, showing me how to operate the Zafira and Ursula was extremely hospitable with cups of tea. Really friendly service.

Dear Jonathan,
My wife and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping us to buy our first car together. Your honesty, courtesy, hospitality, and reassurance helped us feel confident and happy in our decision to buy a gas car. We have already recommended your company and service to our family and friends. We have had no problems with the car and still marvel at how quiet it is. Thank you once again,

"Doing business with Jonathan and the team at Ecocars was an absolute pleasure from start to finish.
Communication and customer service was excellent throughout the process of buying my 2005-registered Vauxhall Corsa 1.2
Twinport. A particular need of mine was that the car had to qualify for London Congestion Charge exemption
(for work purposes), and the care and attention to detail given in this regard was as professional and courteous
as it was with all other matters. The first class service extended right through to delivery of the vehicle to my door,
at which point all the practical driving matters and relevant documents were explained in an unhurried, careful and considerate manner.
In conclusion, I can simply say I am very happy to recommend your company
without hesitation."

Hi jonathan,
Hope all well with you and Ursula.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for all you
hospitality and genuine customer care – much appreciated.
The Corsa is a gem and I can’t tell you how pleased I am with it.
I will be filling her with gas tomorrow as she only ran out
today after 215 miles! People have been showing a real interest
in the fact that she is LPG so I will happily pass on your details
to anyone who asks.
Best Wishes

Hi jonathan,
I`ve had my volvo s40 nearly 3 trouble free months now and thought
it was time to say thanks for supplying a very clean and reliable car.
Your attention to detial and customer service is first class and many national
car dealers and local ones could take a few tips from you when dealing with customers!.
Would have now hesitation in recommending your company to anybody looking to purchase a car.
Thanks again a.k.

Hi Jon
It was a pleasure doing business with you. I hope you had a
trouble-free journey back from Guildford on Monday.
I've now received the Mayor's letter re my "100% discount"
for the congestion charge.
I'm still very happy with the car - I might even let my
wife drive it soon. (Citroen C1 lpg)
