Preparation Process
Cosmetic Preparation
We have two onsite detailers both trained in multi-stage paint correction. Our standard retail preparation includes a comprehensive detail comprising of:
- - Snow foam & "two bucket method" safe wash.
- - Full decontamination of tar & iron deposits.
- - Cosmetic appraisal & appropriate remedial work carried out. This work can range from minor imperfection removal to full correction details where needed.
- - Paintless dent removal is carried out by a 3rd party if there are any parking dinks.
- - Wheel refurbs carried out by 3rd party if needed.
- - Interior vacuum.
- - Leather shampoo & condition (any leather repairs needed are carried out by a 3rd party).
- - Tyres and trim dressed.
- - New registration plates.
Should you wish to go beyond our standard preparation, we offer the facility of applying various paint protection options; Including Gyeon Ceramic products, Autoglym Lifeshine (both applied onsite) and Paint Protection Film (PPF) via a 3rd party.

Mechanical Preparation
Although we don't have an onsite service centre we still take the utmost care ensuring our vehicles are prepared to a high standard mechanically, using various external service partners that cater to individual vehicle needs. Our retail prepared cars are treated to the following pre sale:
- - Extensive test drive to establish any potential problems
- - 120 point vehicle inspection
- - Fresh MOT (if less than 7 months remaining)
- - Service to manufacturer specification if due within 6 months
- - Tyres replaced if under 3mm tread depth remaining
- - Fluids checked and topped up if required
The benefit of us being so selective and specialist in the vehicles we stock means that we have prior knowledge of common weak spots in most brands/models so pre check if certain ailments have been attended to before we purchase. This gives piece of mind for both us and you the customer going forwards with your ownership.
