I must have inherited my dad’s fascination with speed, his mechanical curiosity and sales ease; his fussy tinkering with engines led to a machine parts sales career and part time early Bugatti race car mechanic. His knowledge and inspiration pushed me off bike training wheels onto go-kart slicks . Together we shared a keen interest in finishing and winning. My business studies at Northeastern and love of all things automotive helped land my first job selling luxury sports cars in 1981. Today, I’m lucky enough to share racing thrills and performance boating with my three kids and fortunate enough to work with customers passionate about automotive quality in a professional and appreciative retail environment selling exceptional automobiles. I think my dad would approve.

He checked in shortly after my purchase to make sure I was happy and was able to answer all of my questions about the features that were new to me over the phone. I will most definitely be going back to Herb Chambers when I'm in the market for my next car. More

He was patient and thorough and extremely helpful on follow up calls and questions as well. Our new car is so beautiful and classy, we just can't imagine driving anything other than a Mercedes-Benz. We enjoy every mile each time we get in it. Again, thank you,Rob, for a truly wonderful experience. More

A truly exceptional experience Shortly after my husband died, I was faced with a whole series of car-related questions. I called Rob Tinkham and explained the situation: that I wan Shortly after my husband died, I was faced with a whole series of car-related questions. I called Rob Tinkham and explained the situation: that I wanted to return a leased car, trade in an older car and buy a new, smaller car. It was an overwhelming prospect to me. Rob had all the patience, kindness and professionalism in the world. He walked me through the entire series of transactions. He explained my options--and gave me plenty of options. He took time, answered many, many questions, was available by phone, and found me a beautiful car in the color I mentioned I liked. He was genuinely concerned that I ended up with the right car for me and that the car purchase (the first I had ever undertaken without my husband) was a clear and easy process and that I felt informed at every turn. He was compassionate. I would and will return to him for all car purchases and I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone. More

Just bought a new GLA250 and love it Driving this car has been loads of fun. We came to the dealership with a GLK350 and decided we wanted something smaller, but not a sedan. The new GLA2 Driving this car has been loads of fun. We came to the dealership with a GLK350 and decided we wanted something smaller, but not a sedan. The new GLA250 is exactly what we were looking for. A bit higher off the road than a sedan, but not as high as the GLK. We get to flex our "sports car" muscles when out on the open highway, and then come back to mature adults for city driving. Rob T. is the best salesperson we've ever dealt with: knowledgeable, friendly, respectful, attentive and accommodating. More

Best in Class Rob Tinkham has always and is absolutely at the top of my list (not just as sales person, but as genuine human being and professional. The words I us Rob Tinkham has always and is absolutely at the top of my list (not just as sales person, but as genuine human being and professional. The words I use to sum up Rob are - integrity, honest, intelligent, knowledgeable, responsive. All said, Rob made the purchasing process incredibly simple. I built the car I wanted on-line, sent the details to Rob and within 30 minutes Rob found the car I wanted, secured it for me and we finalized the deal within hours. The remarkable thing was that I built a car that was very specific and very loaded - and - frankly a car that I thought he wouldn't be able to find. As an aside the car is beyond my expectations - amazing. Thank you Rob - made the process seamless... More
