The Human Touch When Buying Used Cars & Vans

Buying your next car or van could well be about more than make, model and engine size. For many drivers, the best car for them just 'feels' right. That personal factor can be based on many things, including being easy to manoeuvre, comfortable to travel in or having a great field of vision. There are even people who choose their new car based on the colour or in-car features such as a sound system.

What is certain, is there are benefits of seeing a car or van in person, before you sign on the dotted line. Better still, it's wise to test a second-hand vehicle, to see whether the driving experience matches the appearance. These are all the reasons why our 'come in-store' invitation is so important to countless happy customers, who make Carbase a highly recommended used car sales company.

Testing driving used cars 'near me'

Whether you're looking at a pre-selected used car or asking our knowledgeable team for help, there are various advantages to arranging a test drive.

As we are a RAC Approved Dealer , all our vehicles have been rigorously checked to RAC Approved Preparation Standards by expert technicians, and prepared thoroughly for new owners. You certainly don't need to test our vehicles to see if they live up to expectations.

However, as mentioned in the introduction, everyone has their own idea of what a great driving experience feels like. By coming in-store to test drive a used car, you can check it's THE one for you.

Steering you in the right direction

Our invitation to come in person to buy your next vehicle enables you to benefit from our warm, competent customer service, and we get to know you, and what you want.

It's this level of engagement and genuine help that led to three consecutive years of being Highly Rated on Auto Trader.
