Used Car Sales
We offer a comprehensive selection of HPI-checked used cars from leading manufacturers. Our inventory includes hatchbacks, SUVs, and saloons ranging from budget-friendly options to premium models. Every vehicle comes with a fresh 12-month MOT and undergoes rigorous mechanical inspections to ensure reliability and safety for our customers.
Vehicle Brokering
Our expert brokering service helps customers find specific car models that match their requirements. We leverage industry connections to source vehicles nationwide, handling negotiations and logistics. This service eliminates the hassle of searching multiple dealerships while ensuring competitive pricing and genuine market value assessments.
Finance Assistance
We provide tailored finance solutions through FCA-authorised credit providers. Our team helps customers navigate PCP agreements, hire purchase plans, and leasing options.

We offer competitive valuations for customers trading in their existing vehicles. Our appraisal process considers current market conditions and vehicle condition to maximise trade-in value. The part exchange option simplifies purchasing by offsetting the cost of new purchases against existing cars, with seamless transaction processing.

AVOID!! not good people
Sold my sisters a car which had had the catalytic converter stolen, and they had done such a bad job replacing it that it caused other electrical problems. These electric problems caused an accident! So be careful and avoid!

I spent about 7k purchasing a car from these guys which was sold as a Cat D but in reality it was a Cat N. After making the purchase I took the car to a local garage for inspection and the mechanics said that it was one of the worst repair jobs that they had ever seen. Besides the extremely poor workmanship the car was deemed unsafe.
Based on my experience with these cowboys they are poor quality blokes who do not care much for the welfair of their customers.
