David Jones Newtown Ltd: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Excellent service had a couple of bikes’ can’t do enough for you .. highly recommend
Thank you for your kind review Fiona. See you again soon.
Fantastic experience: It's a late review but I've only just got out on the bike properly today, I purchased a 2017 YZ450F through Andrew here about 3 months ago , what a gentleman he is, and after doing an enduro event today the bike performed absolutely faultless all day what a machine she is, thanks Ryan.
Thank you Ryan, for your kind review. So glad you're happy with the bike. Hope you had a great race.
Fantastic experience: Good deal and good advice, support and communication from Sean when purchasing new Honda 2417 ride-on mower.
Thank you Norman for kind words happy mowing!
Fantastic experience: As inexperienced ATV owners we decided to go to David Jones in Newtown to purchase our second hand Honda TRX420. Their numerous good reviews gave us confidence that they would help us find the ideal vehicle. Sean, who handled the sale, was very helpful and knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure we were happy and confident with our purchase. When he delivered the ATV to us he took the time to give us a lesson on how to use it safely and competently. I am now riding it around with confidence and it is perfect for the job we bought it for. I can highly recommend David Jones dealership and Sean in particular for his patience with a couple of total ATV novices.
Thank you for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: On way to explore north wales and my mate had problem with Honda NT1100. We stopped off in Newtown headed to David jones Honda dealership. They quickly had a look and found needed rear wheel bearing. They had parts and fixed it on the spot. Brilliant company went above and beyond! Highly recommended
Thank you for your kind review. Glad we could get you on your way again.
Fantastic experience: What can I say an all round fantastic team of friendly knowledgeable people always prepared to go the extra mile weather it's sales, service, or parts. Highly recommended.
Thank you for the kind words Warren. See you in the shop soon.
Fantastic experience: Arrived late on a Monday afternoon with a puncture. The team couldn't have been more helpful. Repaired the tyre and allowed me to continue journey to London. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind review Clive. Glad we could get you on your way again.
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT with them back in November, Very good service too when needed L plates for my bike
Fantastic experience:
Fantastic experience: Amazing guys, so helpful, kind and friendly. Toilet, coffee facilities, Motorbike tyre change at a moments notice and only took the mechanic less than half an hour! Record breaker, he must have worked in the pit with the racing boys! Lol. Felt that we were visiting with old friends. 10/10
Thank you so much for your kind review. Glad we could help you out and get you going again. Look forward to seeing you again soon in the pits
Fantastic experience: We were recently on holiday in Wales on our Kawasaki z1000sx and unfortunately had an off and snapped the break lever, after trying a few places John and team at David Jones couldn't have been more helpful and managed to order an after market one for us and rang as soon as soon as it had arrived. Massive thanks to a great team who have the right attitude, 2 wheels is 2 wheels ❤️
Fantastic experience: Bought a yamaha mt125. Very pleased with it l. Great customer service. Andrew was very helpful. Thanx to Shaun for delivery. Would use theses guys again
Thank you Jay for your kind review. Hope you enjoy your new bike. See you soon for your first service.
Fantastic experience: Popped in while touring Wales on my motorcycle. Friendly staff. Tidy showroom. Decent selection of bikes, but needs a few cheap used ones to tempt me! I bought some warm RST socks though, June isn't warm like it once was.
Thank you for your kind review. Hope the socks warmed your feet up.
Fantastic experience: Helped me out following a puncture, fitted me in around appointments. Very friendly, helpful and professional. Great to know that you are there. Thank you.
Thank you Paul for your review. Glad we could help you out and get you back on your travels.
Fantastic experience: Best motorcycle shop I have ever used in over 48 years of motorcycling. They are a very friendly yet professional team of people and are always willing to help and advise. Prices are always very good and the service is second to non. I travel 150 mile round trip to purchase my bikes and have them serviced as it's well worth it. I definitely recommend this shop.
Thank you so much for your kind review. Its a pleasure to deal with you Anthony. I those cookies are the best
Fantastic experience: Heros, saints and legends! I broke down just 6 miles away from these guys with a broken chain. 14:30 on a Saturday afternoon! I called ahead and they said they'd be able to sort something if I got it there. They even offered to collect but I had sorted a VERY temporary repair Got there. Super helpful and friendly staff. Literally turned me around with a brand new chain supplied and fitted for an absolute fantastic price in less than one hour! Can't thank you enough!
Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad we could help you out and get you back on your travels. Hope to see you again one day. Hopefully not with a broken chain though
Fantastic experience: Had my tracer serviced and mot very helpful Friendly staff and great service, would highly recommend David Jones for your next bike or for servicing...
Thank you Paul for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: Saturday 30 3 24 called in today had a problem with my bike (lost number plate ) sorted straight away nice people excellent service
Thank you for your kind review Neil.
Negative experience: Stay clear of David Jones Newtown if you're looking for work on your bike. Had a few negative interactions with them now but the latest is the last.. Paid for them to remove my exhaust due to seized bolts stopping me doing it myself and fit a new set of pipes. They told me the exhaust didn't fit so just billed me for the labour to get my old set on and off. I'd seen photos of other XVSs with these exact exhaust fitted so decided to do it myself. Guess what? Bolts still seized, my pipes have never been off. I'd give zero stars if possible.
Good Afternoon Christopher, Sorry your experience has not been satisfactory. We remember your bike and issues we had with the exhaust, 7 months ago in August. We removed the exhausts as best we could but it came to a point where we could go no further without the risk of breaking the original exhaust system. We offered up the aftermarket system you supplied but found this clashed with the frame and without modification could cause further issues. We refitted your original system and charge 1/2 hour for the work carried out. Sometimes we take a decision not to risk damaging a bike where it could cause a costly repair for the customer. If you would like us to explain further please call by the shop and we will go through it. Kind regards, Ralph Jones
Fantastic experience: Got a puncture a couple of miles from shop late Saturday afternoon. They came, picked up bike, took it back to the workshop, and got me back on the road in 40 mins. Unfortunately, I had to have a new tyre, but it was reasonably priced and decent make. Couldn't fault the staff, and even had a brew whilst I waited. Excellent service. Thanks
Thank you Daz for your kind review. Glad we could help and get you back on your travels.
Fantastic experience: First visit. Great service.
Thank you Steve.
Fantastic experience: Friendly and helpful - went out of their way (supplying tools and helping) so that I could change a bulb for an MOT pass. Recommended

Thank you very much for your kind review Stefan.
Fantastic experience: Did my CBT today with Kev, was a great day really enjoyed it and would highly recommend, it is fantastic to be able to do this local rather than having to travel a hour or more to have to do this.

Fantastic experience: I bought a Honda for my son from here as his first motorbike, great range of bikes and accessories. Excellent customer service and advice from Sean and Kev.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service and very helpful highly recommend
Thank you for your kind review, Bernard
Fantastic experience: Very helpful, the guy in parts (Kev I think) went the extra mile to source me some plugs, definitely go back
Thank you Paul for your kind review, glad we could help.
Positive experience: Ordered a few bits from here, the parts guys can come across a lil grumpy like had nowt in a while compared to there Shrewsbury Branch try to use them as nearer but I have been further afield because of such, 1st Impression guys? Rest of shop can't speak for as not bought a new bike but presentation is good,
Thank you for your review Forza guy. Sorry you felt that they were grumpy. Very un like our parts guys as they are usually happy and very helpful chaps.
Fantastic experience: I rode up from the Isle of Wight a couple of days ago and stopped at the McDonalds opposite the bike shop for a quick bite to eat. When I returned to the bike (a 2020 Tenere 700) the front tyre was flat. I walked across to David Jones and asked for help, which was immediately given. The mechanic deferred his lunch break to get me on my way quickly and one of the staff came out and refilled my water bottle with ice cold water whilst I waited. It's little details like that, that turn a good service into a great service and I greatly appreciated the help and kindness shown. Thank you, guys. I arrived with my stepdad 30 mins late but without you I'd have ridden a long way without even meeting him. Your service will not be forgotten. Duncan
Thank you for your kind review. Glad we could help you out and get you going again.
Fantastic experience: All round excellent service.
Thank you Heather for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: Had a puncture and was on a road trip to Brands Hatch. Rang them and was told I could bring it straight in and they would fix it in-between jobs. Got there and the mechanic fixed it straight away, before he had his lunch. Fantastic service. Thanks to Ralph and the team.
Thank you Martin for your kind review. Glad we could get you going again.
Fantastic experience: Can't thank these guys enough. Got an irreparable puncture on the first day of a trip. They fitted me in at a moments notice, in peak season and replaced the tyre. Fantastic and friendly service at a great price. Can't recommend highly enough and wish the service was this good in London!
Thank you Will for your kind review. Glad we could get you going again.
Fantastic experience: Great garage. I was riding back from Scotland and needed some tyres really quick. They fitted them for me that day and were really friendly. I would have been stuck without them. They went the extra miles and offered great service. Thanks very much to all involved.
Thank you for your kind review. Glad we could help you out and get you back on your travels.
Fantastic experience: Had a spot light hanging off off my bmw r1250r only dangling by its lead! A very big thank you to Lee and the guys in helping me get back on the road.

Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Reasonable price for the riding accessories. Ralph, Andre, Kevin, and Shaun- Thanks for such a great experience of purchasing the Tricity 300. Yours, Dr Praveen Pillai
Thank you for your kind review. It was a real pleasure to deal with you. Thank you for choosing us to buy your new machine. We hope you enjoy riding it, and we look forward to seeing you for your 1st service. All the best from all at David Jones Motorcycles.
Fantastic experience: Bought a quad bike via Sean. Fantastic customer service - prompt, efficient and straightforward. Bike arrived safely packed and presented like new with a complimentary user pack including a tyre pressure gauge which is a great touch. Excellent peace of mind that I have bought a good value bike in A1 condition that I can get straight to work on - why I ever thought about buying privately from Ebay or FB marketplace I don't know.
Thank you Will for your kind review. It was a pleasure to deal with you. Thank you for choosing us to buy your new quad. All the best.
Negative experience: Cbt course great. Customer service, bad.
Fantastic experience: Would recommend to anybody. These guys offer a great service for cbts. Really go above and beyond to make sure you get a safe and enjoyable take on what ridding a bike is all about
Thank you for your kind review. Happy riding
Fantastic experience: Booked my Honda ATV in for a problem I was having with my electronic gear change. Lee, the service manager was excellent, keeping me informed of progress and the various options available to fix the problem. The technician working on the bike, sorry I don’t remember his name, went above and beyond to trace the source of the electrical problem. This turned out to be a poor connection to the ECU. Bearing in mind the age of the machine, and the very high cost of a new ECU, I am extremely grateful that they took the time to trace the fault, rather than just replace the entire unit, which could have cost as much as the bike is worth! On picking up the bike, I was very impressed that the bike was loaded on my trailer by the guys, while I paid the very reasonable bill. On reaching home I tried out the machine. The push button gear change is now working much better than it has ever been during my five year ownership. Fantastic result guys
Thank you very much Rodney for your kind review.

Fantastic experience: I unfortunately suffered a flat back tyre on my Yamaha motorcycle while on a recent trip to Wales. The RAC trailered me to David Jones at Newtown who could not have been more helpful. They had stock of a selection of tyres for my bike, recommended me one that would match my front tyre (which happened to be on a deal too) fitted me into their full schedule and returned the bike to me, all in under an hour of turning up! Furthermore, when I accidentally left all my credit cards in the store they then contacted me by finding me on FB and then offered to send them to my home address by special delivery. Amazing service from all the team and deserving of a great recommendation
Thank you Graham, we hope you had a good rest of your trip.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant service today 5-06-2022, made the whole CBT experience nice calm and very easy going. I would highly recommend going here to anyone who is looking to do there CBT. Very informative helpful in guiding you along your CBT 10 out of 10

Fantastic experience: It's a good shop they will help eney way they can
Thank you Paul
Fantastic experience: BMW G6500GS Just bought a bike from these guys and was dealt with by Sean,. Now being quite a distance away (Scotland) it was rather difficult to nip over and see the bike....however the process and delivery was sweet as a nut. Stu & Denise who delivered the bike at a very very good cost were very obliging and kept communication at all stages. Highly recommended dealer to all. All the best from Scotland...
Hi Peter, Thank you very much for your kind review. Glad you are happy with the bike. Unfortunately I think you gave us just one star by mistake, is there any chance you could change it ? many thanks
Fantastic experience: Good
Thank you Julian
Negative experience: Lovely showroom. My partner is looking for a new bike ready for getting out and about again as Spring approaches. He saw a couple that caught his attention but we were amazed that the sales staff didn't show any interest in us being there at all - so we left. No excuses as there was no one else in the showroom. We will look elsewhere even if it means travelling to another dealership further away.
Hello Alison, First of all please except our apologies for not paying attention to you being in our showroom. We pride ourselves on customer service and this does upset me when we get a bad review. We do run a very tight ship here with staff in our showroom and I can only think that we were busy at the time. But again I'm sorry. Would look forward to welcoming you if you did pop back in. Many thanks
Fantastic experience: Fantastic lovely service were super friendly and couldn't help enough
Thank you Michelle for your kind review

Fantastic experience: Excellent firm for buying a lawnmower from. I knew roughly what I needed before I contacted the company. Sean Grosvenor went through all the options without any pushy sales tactics, which I have experienced with other company's. Sean is an expert with sound advice and always keeping the customer first. I would highly recommend David Jones Newtown to anyone looking for a mower in any price range from low to high. If you get Sean to help you you will be in good hands!!!! A local business keeping the customer first!!!!
Thank you for choosing us and for your great review Jason.
Fantastic experience: Did my cbt there
Fantastic experience: Can't rate these guys highly enough. Used them several times since we moved to the area for both mine and my wifes bikes. Called 1pm today to see if they had an urgent MOT slot as I suddenly realised I'd 'let it slip' a tad.. By 4pm this afternoon all done with a years ticket. Great to see a no messing, very fair MOT tester who wasn't out to fail my old girl and was willing to give his advice for things needed during the coming months rather than cut down another rain forest for the sake of it. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I have been a customer from when he first stated his business , I have had work done to my motorcycle's and it was done well , the staff are very helpful great to do business with them !!
Fantastic experience: Very helpful
