Buying a great pre-owned vehicle doesn't have to be loaded with drama and stress! Take a drive to see me in "downtown" Cedarville for a stress free buying experience. I've been in the auto business since 2005 and General Motors Factory Certified in Sales and Technology since 2007. Buying a car should be fun and exciting!

WOW, what a pleasant experience. Ok, here we go. Found (on the internet), what we hoped would be the car for us. However the trip would be two and a half hours each way. Calle Ok, here we go. Found (on the internet), what we hoped would be the car for us. However the trip would be two and a half hours each way. Called the dealership, and the phone was answered by Tim Border, he assured us the car was on the lot and would welcome our visit. Just based on his pleasant manner, we felt something was right, and the trip would be worthwhile. Well the car was just what we`d been looking for, we were treated like old friends by Tim and the staff, and the deal was made. They were efficient, and made the buying experience great fun. There have been times I`d rather have a root canal, than purchase a vehicle, but these folks made this so painless we`ll definitely pass the word to make a trip to Barkau&Sons in Cedarville Il. By the way, they`re dog friendly too. So take the mutt when you go. There is a fire hydrant on the corner. Tim, thanks again for your expertise and making our day. Richard & Marcia White Monmouth Il.

Hands Down Top Notch From first contact via phone, my experience was top notch. Tim Border was quick to check on the availability of the particular vehicle I was interest From first contact via phone, my experience was top notch. Tim Border was quick to check on the availability of the particular vehicle I was interested in and promptly returned my call. Upon arrival at J.H. Barkau & Sons (which was a 65mile drive from my house) I was very pleased with the level of customer service. There were no games, no bait and switch or pressure tactics. I simply looked over the vehicle, went for a test drive and received a very attractive price without round after round of bartering. How refreshing to know that there are still dealerships that just operate in a courteous, honest and earnest fashion. They even made arrangements to get my car to my house! I'll be recommending J.H. Barkau & Sons to anyone I know in the market for a quality used car from quality people. Well done!! More

Have bought two pick up trucks from them and both times had a great experience. Tim Border has been the salesman for both and my Wife and I both felt no pressure to buy or was steered into a vehicle we did not want. Some places you feel like you have to be defensive. We never feel that way working with Tim Border. Both times we found a vehicle we were very happy with and could afford. Barkau comes highly recommended in my opinion. More

I still cant' believe how easy the whole process was to get my new car. I had been in contact with other dealerships and didn't have a welcoming good feeling about them. I was told you about this place to get my new car. I had been in contact with other dealerships and didn't have a welcoming good feeling about them. I was told you about this place and I literally knew within 15 minutes that I could get my dream car. Highly recommend working with Tim. More

I was in a car accident on January 24, 2014 and my car was totaled. My husband and I needed a car that would get me back and forth to Beloit twice a week and up to whitewater once to move our daughter bac was totaled. My husband and I needed a car that would get me back and forth to Beloit twice a week and up to whitewater once to move our daughter back and forth to school up there. I contacted Tim via internet and he found us a van in our price range. We had gone to sawicki motors 2 times to no avail. Even we told them what our price range was, they still would not come down. Tim gave us a little discount on the van because of the amount of rust it had on it, and we walk off with the van that day. We were going to wait until our mechanic could look at, but my husband decided we could take it home for the price they offered us. We told our church about J.H Barkau and they are looking for a shuttle bus for our elderly members. We are sure that we will make them are car dealership. We will also tell our friends about them. We also went to Tomolains in Freeport and they would not come down on their prices either for us. Out the 3 J.H Barkau & Sons was the best. More

I found the Cadillac on Craig's list. I called Tim for information. After listening to the report on the car and what had been done to it, I decided to take a look. I called Tim on the way to Cedar for information. After listening to the report on the car and what had been done to it, I decided to take a look. I called Tim on the way to Cedarville. He had the car ready, warmed up and waiting for my wife and me to take it for a test drive. We liked the car and wanted to see what kind of deal he would give us. We were pleased with the first offer of trade. I gave him the cash offer and drove it home. We are waiting for a manual which Tim said he would get for us as well as some decals. Through out all of my conversations with Tim he has been extremely helpful. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to buy a vehicle from J.H. Barkau. More
