JUST REALLY GOOD!
The purchasing process was easy and the handover both professional and thorough.
The staff were helpful, attentive and friendly and the facilities in the dealership were excellent.
A really great experience and I would like to highlight both Suzi and Rick for looking after me so well.

Ducati Sunderland Review
Ducati Sunderland Review
Following the purchase of my Ducati Multistrada 1260 S GT from Ducati Manchester, it was agreed that I could book the bike into Ducati Sunderland, my local dealership, for a quick inspection. From the very beginning, the experience with Ducati Sunderland was exceptional.
Dave Evans, the Service Manager, was outstanding from the outset. He was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Nothing seemed too much trouble, which was incredibly refreshing and immediately gave me confidence in the dealership.
When I attended for the inspection, I decided to wait at the dealership. During that visit, Lead Technician Stu Turner took the time to come and speak with me personally about the bike. Stu was absolutely excellent. His level of knowledge was obvious from the start, but what really stood out was the time he took to explain everything in detail. He provided a video inspection and talked me through the issues he had identified, giving a clear explanation of what he had found and why it mattered. That level of professionalism and transparency was fantastic and left me feeling completely confident in both the diagnosis and the proposed work.
I would also like to mention Neil Coates from the sales team. Although I was not looking to buy a new bike, Neil could not have been more welcoming. His hospitality, knowledge, and willingness to chat and answer questions made the wait enjoyable. No question was treated as trivial, and he was a pleasure to deal with throughout.
Following the inspection, Ducati Manchester authorised the work identified by Ducati Sunderland, and I returned earlier this week to have the repairs carried out.
Once again, Dave Evans was excellent in organising everything, and the new Dave who has recently joined the business was equally friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere throughout the dealership was professional, relaxed, and customer focused.
Before the work began, Stu Turner took the time to discuss exactly what he would be doing and why. Once again, his knowledge, patience, and attention to detail were outstanding. Every question was answered thoroughly, and nothing was dismissed or rushed. What particularly impressed me was the pride he clearly takes in his work. He identified and resolved additional issues along the way, ensuring the bike left in the best possible condition.
As I was at the dealership for several hours while work was carried out on the brakes, chain, and sprockets, I spent more time with the team and continued to receive excellent service throughout. Dave, Stu, and Neil are a credit to Ducati Sunderland and represent exactly how customer service should be delivered.
Even after the work was completed, the support continued. I popped back into the dealership for some advice regarding rear hub locking nuts I had purchased, and Stu was once again more than happy to help. Nothing was too much trouble.
It is easy to complain when things go wrong, but it is equally important to recognise outstanding service when you receive it. Dave Evans, Stu Turner, Neil Coates, and the wider Ducati Sunderland team provided a genuinely first class experience from start to finish.
Professional, knowledgeable, welcoming, and passionate about what they do. I would not hesitate to recommend Ducati Sunderland to anyone.
A fantastic experience and a credit to the Ducati brand. Five stars.

Purchased my first bike from Vertu Honda Stockton store. Absolutely love the bike and the service was top quality. Curtis was really helpful and brilliant throughout the purchase of my bike! Everything was done quick and easy and communication was top class whether it be through calls or emails. Delivery was also a massive bonus and the driver who dropped the bike off to my house gave me all the info I need on the bike and made me feel really even more confident with the purchase I’d made. Highly recommend!

Outstanding service from Vertu Motorcycles in Exeter from start to finish. I recently purchased a BMW RT1300 bike through them, and the entire experience was absolutely first class. A huge thank you goes to Darren Duff, who was brilliant throughout the whole process. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely helpful, answering all my questions without any pushy sales tactics. The communication was spot on, keeping me updated every step of the way, and the bike handover was handled flawlessly. It is rare to find this level of dedicated customer care these days. If you are looking for a top quality dealership in Devon, look no further than Vertu Exeter. Five stars, highly recommended to all!
