Excellent service 5 *****
It's a very worrying experience when you decide to sell your car, especially to somebody you have never met before. But I cannot fault the reassuring & professional manner in which the whole process was dealt with by Andy & Sean at SMR. I found them very honest, fair & trustworthy throughout the transaction.
I can highly recommended them.
Highly recommended.
Andy and the team were excellent. We agreed on a price that was significantly better than 'we buy any car' had offered me and my car was collected the next day. The whole process was very easy.
Excellent Service
The whole process is smooth and friendly and I was explained fully on every step. Thanks for the good service.
10/10
Andy and Sean were lovely to deal with - Andy was great from start to finish and I felt very reassured by his professionalism and generally nice manner throughout the sake process. Sean’s assessment of my vehicle was very fair and upfront and we both came away happy. I would absolutely use SMR direct again to sell a vehicle!

Andy was very professional and easy to deal with. He explained from payment of our car to collection and everything ran extremely smoothly. I like their approach they check every detail and keep you fully in the picture. I would certainly recommend anyone using them.
Real expertise and real fairness
First time I’ve sold a car (as opposed to part ex’d) for years, but Andy at SMR Direct made it a completely easy, hassle-free and enjoyable experience.
His examination of the car was forensic and detailed ; he spotted faults I had no idea were there. Admirable professionalism and expertise, I thought, but I obviously then expected it to be followed up with a sad face and plenty of hard haggling.
So I was utterly delighted when he made an offer for the car that was more than fair. Certainly not what I was expecting. And certainly more fair than I have ever achieved whilst part-exchanging! (Worth mentioning that Andy didn’t leave until the cash was in my bank account).
So if you selling, you should get in touch with these guys. You won’t get anything past them, but you can count on them to be honest, sensible and fair.
First rate organisation
Dealing with good people in Andy and Sean which made the process run very smooth. Never easy selling a high end vehicle but from the first contact to finally parting with the vehicle, they were well organised, good communicators to ensure the process flowed with consummate ease. Would certainly recommend their services as a company to deal with.
Great service !
Both Andy and Sean provided a reassuringly friendly and professional service making the sale of my car very easy.
I would recommend SMR Direct to anyone with a car to sell and would readily use again.
Thank you very much.
Second time with SMR
This is the second time I have worked with Sean and Andy at SMR Direct to sell a car, and both times have been a great experience. They made it very easy and quick, and were fair in their evaluations of the condition of the vehicles. I am happy with the efficient and friendly service.
