FAQ – Common Buyer Questions
What documents should I check before buying?
Always ask for the V5C logbook, service history, and MOT certificate. These confirm ownership, mileage, and vehicle condition.
Can I test drive before purchase?
Yes — schedule a test drive via phone or online. A test drive is essential to assess handling, brakes, comfort, and features.
How does part-exchange work?
Bring your car for valuation. We'll give you a competitive offer, handle any existing finance, and subtract it from your deposit or purchase price.
