Excelent information about the cars I was interested in. I fully satisfied with my experience at Manly Honda.. I wanted to buy a CR-V 2018 with a trade-in of my CR-V 2013. Chris Tara-Browne explained to me I fully satisfied with my experience at Manly Honda.. I wanted to buy a CR-V 2018 with a trade-in of my CR-V 2013. Chris Tara-Browne explained to me in a very friendly manner the choices I had. He never put pressure on me to buy a car, as frequently happen with other dealers, and the same I must say of Svetlana Tara-Browne. It was a pleasure to work whit both. More

Buying a used car from Chris Tara-Browne I came in to buy a used Honda Civic. Chris did an excellent job, showing me cars I'd selected to look at, one I'd not previously checked on-line, and I came in to buy a used Honda Civic. Chris did an excellent job, showing me cars I'd selected to look at, one I'd not previously checked on-line, and answering my questions about them. I was a somewhat picky buyer and am happy to say Chris was very good about meeting my needs. While this is labeled a review of Chris, I'm going to add a word or three about Manley Honda. First, the policy of being able to return a car post-purchase is invaluable; you can get a much better idea about it over the course of a few days of driving. Second, while Sean Lumibo handled the financial transaction smoothly and both Chris and he are personable and a pleasure to work with, the purchase process itself isn't so wonderful - it takes far too long to make a simple cash purchase - but that seems to be pretty much the industry standard these days.
