Fantastic service. Needed to sell my car due to health reasons so my dad contacted Carite on my behalf & Tim was brilliant. Informed my parents of the exact service they provide & once everything was agreed, the car was collected the next day & funds in our account within minutes.

We had an emergency with our car and the previous garage we called could not see us until a few days later. We popped in to Carite after reading excellent reviews from a recommendation post in FB. Sam was really friendly and sorted us out before EOB on the same day. Would highly recommend, brilliant team at Carite!
