About us and our standards

We do not buy our stock from auctions and we do not buy ex rental cars. Auctions can sometimes be used to offload cars with problems while rental cars are not usually driven quite as carefully as privately owned cars. Most of our stock is purchased from private owners. Every car is individually purchased by Shaun Cuthbert (the company owner). It is then meticulously prepared to the very highest standard. There is nothing worse than travelling hundreds of miles to look at a car only to find it's not as described. I am sure you have all experienced this in the past. Every car we sell is prepared to the same high standard. You are probably thinking everyone says that. We would like to assure you that we really do mean it. You will not see scratches, dents, kerbed alloys, missing/broken trim, bald tyres, flat batteries, missing service books etc etc on any of our cars. Every car is spotlessly clean before each viewing. Your time is very valuable so we will not waste it.

When you buy a used car from a dealer you expect important things like Cambelts to be changed if they are due. Sadly some dealers don't bother to check and even more worrying don't care. For example, VW, Audis, Seat & Skoda. Most have Cambelts and should be changed every 4/5 years or 60,000mls/80,000mls. We don't charge extra for this but you can be rest assured if its due we will have it changed.

All our cars have a full service history. We do not sell cars without documented proof that it has been fully serviced. Servicing & mechanical repairs are carried out by selected specialists. This costs us considerably more than using a general service centre, however we feel it helps maintain the cars value and ensures servicing & repairs are carried out correctly and in accordance with the manufactures recommendations.

If the manufactures warranty has expired we will include a 12 months parts and labour warranty. The length of warranty is stated on every car we sell. You don't have to bring the car back to us. Warranty work can be carried out at almost any VAT registered garage up and down the country. This can be extended to 2 or even 3 years. Call for more details.

HPi or Experian car date checks

All cars are checked using HPi or Experian to ensure they have no strange or unusual history. You will receive a copy of this report when you purchase a car from us.

We can arrange competitive finance packages to help with your purchase. Term of loans can be up to 60 months (subject to status & conditions). We can also arrange Balloon Finance Packages (subject to status & conditions). This can reduce your monthly payments substantially. Quotations available on request. If you are in negative equity on your current vehicle we can also offer finance packages to cover this too (subject to status & conditions).

We can also take your current car in part exchange. You can use it as a deposit or part deposit with some cash back. If you want to down grade to a less expensive car then we are happy to do this too.
