Best way to buy a new car!

I knew which car I wanted to buy either used or new and came across Drive the Deal by accident. I made an enquiry and was offered thousands off the car list price - making it a much more appealing offer than buying used. Communication was great, and also once put in touch with the dealer. I’m so happy with my car, and the dealer gave other benefits from buying through Drive the Deal. Amazing! And well worth going through them if they can help find what you’re looking for and offer such great discounts. I’d use again but can’t imagine wanting to part with my lovely new car for a long time!

Will definitely use them again

Was dubious at first as first time buying a car online. Drivethedeal.com got me a very good price, were very easy to deal with and would highly recommend them to help you get your car. Will definitely use them again

Totally Brilliant

Absolutely brilliant way to buy a car if you know exactly what you want. I saved an absolute bomb on the list price and the process was completely hassle free. The service from Drive the deal was both efficient and pleasant and the paperwork easy to understand. No question I would use them again.

This company is brilliant

This company is brilliant , stops all the hassle & stress of dealing with car salesmen.

This is the 2nd time we’ve used them & both times have been hassle free.

Pick car , ask for price (Nov 23) ,agree , receive email details , pay deposit direct to dealer, deal direct with dealer for paperwork etc. wait for car (Mar 24 - which is what I wanted) , arrange to pick up or get delivered. Job done.

I’ll always use them & will only use a dealer for a test drive so I can decide what car to buy.

Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Wowza!

Wow! They remembered I was interested in a deal before VW prices went up but they found me a great deal that saved me over £8000 off list price and interest free credit.
Can’t argue with that!

Excellent service provided.

From the moment that I first contacted Drivethedeal they dealt with me in a very professional manor and talked me through the process. They appointed a dealer, who then got in touch with me to go through the deal together with any additions that I required. The dealer kept us informed about delivery and informed us when they received the car. The car was then delivered to us in a very professional way. I would certainly not hesitate to buy my next new car this way as there was a substantial saving over the dealers prices.

A company that does exactly what it says on the tin…

Drive the Deal was probably one of the first brokers for new car purchases, and has survived to be one of the few remaining, with very good reason. Drive the Deal have a very competent, polite and efficient team, who answer every query with a very quick and accurate response. The service and products advertised by this company are exactly what you receive, unlike some of their competitors. We can only thank Drive the Deal for making our dealings with them a pleasure with absolutely no hassles, that is unfortunately a rarity these days.

Many thanks to the Drivethedeal team.

This was the first time I have used Drivethedeal to purchase my new Audi A3 and I must say that I found the experience to be excellent and I will definitely use their service again when I purchase my next new car. I would like to thank Jim Macklin personally for making my purchase both easy with good communications and service also in answering any queries that I had.

Drive the Deal delivered in every way

Drive the Deal delivered in every way. I obtained the best price for my new car and the introduction to main dealer was seamless. The experience was excellent from the start of the process with the quote through to collection of the vehicle. Absolutely recommend their service.

Will use Drive the deal again

Deposit paid by credit card so giving us protected finances. Car arrived 1 month later than estimated which was not a problem as we were advised of progress. Everything went very well from initial contact through to delivery by main agent.

I have to be honest

I have to be honest, for a good while thought I was being scammed!! I had a real worry that the level of discount being offered was too good to be true. How wrong was I.
Drive The Deal are by far the most competitively priced I have found for a brand new factory ordered vehicle, I saved thousands compared to what Carwow & 3 local dealers quoted me.
The whole process was extremely straightforward. I would not hesitate to recommend Drive The Deal to anyone & I will definitely use them again.
Extremely pleased with my new car & the level of service I received from the Dealer I was put in touch with.

You get exactly what you wanted

I have purchased a total of 5 cars from drivethedeal. You know exactly what you are getting and paying exactly the price the dealer is asking for. There is no haggling.

Fantastic Discount and great service

Fantastic discount on ordering a VW California campervan through Drive The Deal and the whole process was really easy. We just selected our configuration and pressed the button to go ahead with an order and someone from Drive the Deal called us to check through all the details and then placed the order with a VW Dealer (we were told in advance which dealer it would be). After that you deal directly with the dealer. I wish I had known this existed before when ordering our car. We have now collected our new campervan from the dealer and are thrilled with it.
