I started here at Smythe Volvo at the age of 18 as a porter. Over the last 30 years I became an Apprentice Mechanic, Mechanic, Sales Consultant, Sales Manager, General Manager, Owner then President/CEO. My favorite aspect of working at Smythe Volvo is the interaction with our customers. It's a pleasure to get to know them personally and to see them happy with our level of service. My favorite Volvo model is the 1965 P1800. It's a sporty and extremely durable vehicle that signifies the heritage of Volvo. It's silhouette can be seen in the Smythe Volvo logo. Outside of work my complete focus is on my wonderful wife and six children.

I have purchased or leased 8 vehicles in the past 25 years. The moment you walk into Smythe Volvo you feel right at ease as you are welcomed by a friendly employee. During the two day period of look years. The moment you walk into Smythe Volvo you feel right at ease as you are welcomed by a friendly employee. During the two day period of looking at 3 different car models, going on a test drive , and purchasing the car, I was helped by Kevin Flanagan,Steve Sargent, Steve Bergamo, and Brian Gail. They all took their time to explain the features of the different cars.But more importantly they wanted to know how many children are in the family ,their ages, and sizes.As Kevin Flanagan said to me , the car needs to work for the whole family. It is that level of concern that makes Smythe stand out.The Smythe employees take the time to find out your needs, likes, dislikes, and want you to be comfortable in your decesion. My mother, sister, aunt, and mother -in- law andd father- in-law have all purchased cars from Smythe. They know what they are doing. More

This is the finest dealership I have ever encountered. I just purchased our fourth Volvo from Smythe and we have had all of them serviced at Smythe exclusively. The ownership is friendly (I consider the Pr just purchased our fourth Volvo from Smythe and we have had all of them serviced at Smythe exclusively. The ownership is friendly (I consider the President Kevin Flanagan a friend first) and they are rigidly honest. I purchased a 2008 CPO XC90 and the price was better than I have ever seen available at any dealership and I researched the purchase extensively. They took my 2006 Audi A8 in trade and paid me the wholesale book price as listed. We now own two Volvos, and we will continue to own only Volvos as long as Kevin and his family own the dealership. I have done work in the dealer industry and Smythe Volvo and its team is unique in their integrity, and the service and the value they provide. More

My family has two cars bought from Smythe Volvo and we have them serviced by them, too. Firstly, their sales department, headed by Kevin Flanagan, is the anti-dealer. I advocate to anybody I know who is c have them serviced by them, too. Firstly, their sales department, headed by Kevin Flanagan, is the anti-dealer. I advocate to anybody I know who is considering a Volvo at all to call Kevin because he is on their side. So many people I know are wary of dealers (including me) but I gladly send my friends to Kevin because he is going to give you the straight scoop on the cars, how they stack up, no-pressure, and a very fair deal. That sort of knowledgeable, respectful, no-pressure approach is one big reason Smythe is one of the top dealers in the nation. Now on to service, headed by Sean Flanagan. Another Flanagan, another stand-up guy, and another first rate operation. Also, the team of service advisors are professional, patient, and upbeat, regardless who you get. There have been many occasions where they have advised me how I can more simply or less expensively address an issue, when service really needs to be done, and have also stood behind all work done. Seriously, these guys are the best. Just look at their old school building, with everybody working in the same space, parts, service, service bays, no fancy waiting room with espresso machine and you can see that it is the people that makes Smythe special, and that is the root of their success - and a great testament to the power and longevity of character.

We purchased our first Volvo from Smythe in 1987. From the beginning, we were impressed with the professionalism, quality and customer friendly atmosphere of this dealership. Kevin has been our "go to gu the beginning, we were impressed with the professionalism, quality and customer friendly atmosphere of this dealership. Kevin has been our "go to guy" over these many years, and we have always been confident that he would give us the best deal. Although we are no longer living in the Summit area and live approximately 65 miles south, we just made our latest (2012) Volvo purchase from Smythe. This is because Kevin and his staff always provide great service and competative prices. We highly recommend doing business with this dealership. More
