I was offered a fair price for my van and the sale process was handled smooth and professionally. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking to sell their van.
Harpreet Singh
I run a local courier company and I have had 2 broken vans sat in my yard for a few months. I entered my details, was contacted within an hour and had the vans collected by the end of the day. The staff were polite, easy to deal with and I got a fair price for the two vans. Thanks Max and the team.
Stuart Banfry
My van recently broke down with a broken timing chain and I have bought a brand new one. I typed the reg of my old van in, got offered a fair price on the same day and collected the day after. Impressed by the service.

They made the best offer and was a pleasure to deal with. Wish I found them earlier. I had tried to sell privately on other websites but had nothing but problems and tyre kickers.
