very good service …
I found the service given by both the office when looking for information regarding selling my van and the young man collecting the vehicle was excellent. There was no pressure and the whole transaction was done in a friendly and co-operative way.
I should definitely recommend this company to anyone thinking of selling a car.
Excellent service
Friendly efficient service. Transaction completed from start to money in my bank in less than 24 hours. No quibbling.
very poor service
The person who came to purchase my car didn't even wait by the door or introduce himself he then proceeded to find marks that I had already told them about when I received original quote
. They then took a phone call and just dumped a piece of their kit on the roof of my car before trying to find other issues with my car and then offered me a silly amount of money , I would have got as much with scrap value . I would not go near this lot again in a million years
Perfect company
Perfect company , great customer service throughout, no hidden charges like the rest and the correct price paid for my vehicle, they come to you at your convenience,
Cant fault them
Cant fault them, quoted price and paid upon inspection (my car was mint so nothing to deduct)
Quick and efficient
Whole process is very simple but the…
Whole process is very simple but the price quoted are unlikely to be the figure received once they take a further view of your vehicle, even after you have explained and described everything relating to it's condition beforehand. Accept that, then they are very prompt with their appointment and with their payment. They come and collect on a trailer, if you proceed with the transaction. Very polite person collecting. They are who really agrees the price upon inspection. Would use this service again.
What a great service from start to finish …
What a great service from start to finish. Entered the vehicle details on their website, received an email and a call to confirm details of the vehicle being sold. Agreed to a valuation and arranged for them to come and collect the vehicle. No Fees. No haggling. No hidden costs. Just a professional friendly service. Money was transferred there and then; and they waited patiently whilst I confirmed the funds transferred across. I'll certainly use them again should the need arise.
Brilliant painless throughout whole…
Brilliant painless throughout whole process would recommend to anyone
Would highly recommend
Would highly recommend, came on given day at the time they promised. They thought the car had sat nav, which it didn’t. Small amount of negotiating had to be done but overall very happy with amount paid and service. Would use again, thanks.

What’s not to like
What’s not to like. Responses were speedy, price was very fair, driver arrived at agreed time and, after an inspection & test drive, the money was in the bank account within minutes.
Respectful and Professional
Good service, conducted in a professional and respectful manner. Disappointed that they kept to the price offered during initial phone conversation - vehicle obviously in excellent condition, for its age, without typical wear/tear, seen upon examination. Could have upped the offer to seller and still come out with a hefty profit.
Would recommend 100% professional and …
Would recommend 100% professional and honest service, as long as you honest in regard to selling and condictons you will have no problems 😊 5 star company

From start to finish this was a painless experience. I was offered a fair price for my old car, it was collected at the arranged time, I was paid in cash as agreed and all paperwork was completed as it should be. I was dealt with with courtesy all along the way. I recommend them highly.
