That was easy!! We bought our second Kia Soul in 4 weeks and once again the transition into another great vehicle was a terrific experience. The staff were welcomin We bought our second Kia Soul in 4 weeks and once again the transition into another great vehicle was a terrific experience. The staff were welcoming and remembered us from the first time through. We worked primarily with Chris Martens and Jeremy Allen but also spent time speaking with Dave Bare. Everything was organized for an easy paperwork progression and we weren't kept waiting for anything. Even in the days following when my husband had some questions, they were at the ready to help and find a solution to his questions. It has been a real pleasure to find a company that puts client service at the top of their business ethics achievements list. Thank you all for treating us so well. HLG & GCG More

What a delightful product and staff! From the moment we were on the Harris Kia lot, we were treated with exceptional attention. We are impressed with the extensive knowledge of the staff From the moment we were on the Harris Kia lot, we were treated with exceptional attention. We are impressed with the extensive knowledge of the staff. They each went out of their way to make every step of our purchase of our 2014 Kia Soul an easy and informative experience. All the staff we encountered on the lot, including those who detailed our car did such a good job. Natalie Dumont, Sales Rep., even set up our phone and satellite music when we made our purchase. Jeremy Allen, Financial Services Manager, handled our financial transaction while listening to each of our special requests regarding the 10 year warranty. Mike House, Service manager, arranged the purchase of winter tires and rims fast and efficiently. General Manager, Dave Bare can be very proud of these staff and all the others we rubbed shoulders with during our visit. The Coopers, Qualicum Beach More

3rd Vehicle from this team This is the third time I have been apart of a purchase from this team of great people. I bought a car 9 years ago, my girlfriend bought another last y This is the third time I have been apart of a purchase from this team of great people. I bought a car 9 years ago, my girlfriend bought another last year and today I just traded in mine on a new Sorento. Most impressive is the honest and open natured way they do business. Everything was thoroughly explained to me and I never felt pressured. Late in talks on one car I changed my mind and went with another, which I now own. At no point was there any issue with my change of heart, at KIA they really do want you to get the best vehicle for you at a great deal. The first two cars were bought new, and this recent one is pre-owned so their finance guru talked me through the best options for me with great insight. If your looking for a great group of people to work with, visit the Harris Kia team first. More

Awesome Team I recently bought a 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis (cream puff) from Harris Kia. Before even considering whether or not to go to the trouble of travellin I recently bought a 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis (cream puff) from Harris Kia. Before even considering whether or not to go to the trouble of travelling from the mainland to Vancouver Island to see the car I checked out the reputation of the dealership. It was outstanding. My next concern was whether or not we could come to an agreement on price. I am familiar with these vehicles and the price that a pristine unit should go for. It was late Sunday evening when I sent an offer through Auto Trader. I wasn't expecting a response until sometime the next day. I received a message that very night from Dave Bare, the companies General Manager. My offer was accepted, no games playing trying to squeeze the customer for a little more of their hard earned money. I was very well treated by all Harris Kia staff that I came into contact with. They knew their jobs and did them in a friendly professional manner. The car was immaculately clean and operated flawlessly. More

This is the second year in a row that we have gone in to have our tires changed over and ended up buying a new Kia Sorento. The team at Harris Kia are unsurpassed. Roy Berentsen, sales manager and Jeremy A have our tires changed over and ended up buying a new Kia Sorento. The team at Harris Kia are unsurpassed. Roy Berentsen, sales manager and Jeremy Allen financial manager both make you feel you matter not just as a customer but as a person. Rachel Roy, our sales consultant, is the best. She takes the time to explain things to us in a manor we can understand and if she can't answer a question then she admits it and goes about finding the answer. The service group from Mike House and Kolbi McLean in the service department to Teri Wilson and Noel LeFebvre in the parts department are all very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. With Dave Bare as general manager and Dave Corrigal added to the finance department who could ask for a better place to buy a new car, especially a new Kia. Thanks again to all of the Harris Kia team, you make buying a new car a really fun experience. More
