J V Like
All
It is with great sadness that I was informed today that JV LIKE has gone into administration.
I am gutted as they are all a great bunch out there.
If any of the JV Like staff read this, then make sure you all keep your chins up and I wish you all the very best for the future.
See you Saturday.

Only been there once and was given tea and biscuits - which has never happened at any other dealership. Sad to hear of their problems Disco 5 HSE Lux

Sad news, great Dealer, they got me fish and chips when I was there in June for a service.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them.The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

Administration is not receivers so there could be light at the end of the tunnel In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Looks like Likes are OK We have just purchased a set of brake pads for CraigS TD5 disco. So they are trading again In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
That's good news Andrew The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

Yeah sounds great news!
However you can still trade whilst in administration and I note that they have no used wagons for sale on their website!
Anyway fingers crossed that it is now all good! '56 Disco 3 SE - Tonga Green

I suspect because they are into the banks for so many £000,000's that they cant afford to foreclose!
I spoke to Likes today and as Andrew says it is not all doom and gloom, apparently there are a few interested parties so hopefully common sense will prevail, a buyer will be found and one of the best dealerships in the country will live to fight another day. D4 HSE Luxury SDV6,
