About Us
You'll find over 750 New & Used cars from as little as £4,000, across many of the UK's key franchises, and all representing exceptional value. We’re not just interested in making the sale. We want you and your car to enjoy a happy future together, which is why we’ll advise you on the running costs, including the fuel efficiency, emissions and insurance group of any car you choose. So you can be sure there are no nasty surprises round the corner.
Interested in a particular model? Get the Clarkson-style low-down from our independent reviewers. This is a great way to find out exactly what you get for your money. Starting with an overall summary, we use ‘owner reviewers’ which means they actually own the car. From performance capabilities, through to safety and cost they will give you the real truth. You’ll get the good and the bad, which allows you to make up your own mind.
At the end of the day it’s your choice and we want you to buy a car that suits you! Many dealerships will set their prices high in anticipation of haggling with you. We think life’s much too short for all that. Our prices are all clearly marked on the vehicles. What you see is what you get.
You’ll never see a ‘January sale’ or ‘summer special’ sign at The Car People. We’ve no need for such gimmicks to entice you to visit us. Our prices are up to 40% cheaper than main dealers all year round.How do we do it? Simple. Our steady turnover of stock means we don’t rely on big margins to survive.
