How It Works
Online car buying, the proper way
From a click to your driveway inside 5–14 days — your money shielded the entire time, plus 14 days to be absolutely certain before anything becomes final.
Buy With Confidence
Real safety doesn't come from a handshake
A private sale asks you to take a stranger's word on mileage, faults and history — then hand over your money with no route back. Our process was designed so nothing rests on somebody's word.
The private-seller route
- History and mileage accepted on trust alone
- Faults a ten-minute drive will never expose
- Cash handed over with nothing protecting it
- No warranty, no way back, no recourse
The HJ Motors route
- 168-point inspection backed by advanced diagnostics, plus a complete HPI check
- Your money waits in a protected holding account — never released on trust
- 14 days on your own roads before anything is locked in
- 12 months' warranty across the major mechanicals — engine and gearbox both covered
The Process
Four stages. Nothing left to chance.
Each stage goes down on paper before a penny moves — and your money remains shielded until the moment you accept the car.
Find your car & get in touch
Work through the full stock online — each car carries a complete photo gallery, its full specification, a history summary and one fixed, sharply competitive price. Spotted it? Hit Enquire Now or give us a ring.
- A real person checks availability and handles every question, generally within the hour
- Contract and invoice land in your inbox the very same day
- The whole thing happens from your sofa — no appointments, no showroom, no hovering salesperson
Sign up, pay into protection
With your signature in place, the payment moves into a secure holding account, where it remains under protection until the car has arrived and won your approval.
- Everything is priced in writing before you commit — the car, a fixed £200 admin fee, delivery at £0.30 per mile and any registration fees due. No extra line ever appears
- The funds move only once you've accepted the car at the close of your inspection window
- Turn the car down and that same money travels straight back to you, in full
Clearing, preparation & the journey to you
As soon as proof of your payment reaches us, clearing begins. The car completes its final checks and professional preparation, then rides to your address on a fully insured transporter — carried, not driven, so not a mile lands on your clock.
- Expect 5 to 14 days between confirmed payment and your door, with progress updates the whole way
- Any mainland UK address, charged at £0.30 per mile
- At the handover you get keys, registration papers and the complete file — inspection report and HPI certificate among them
Use 14 days to be sure
From delivery day onwards you hold a 14-day inspection period. Commute in it, pack the family in, let your own mechanic pore over it — insurance stays on the car throughout.
- Love it? Confirm acceptance, the deal completes, and the car is officially yours
- Not convinced, whatever the reason? Turn it down at zero financial risk
- We collect it and push your refund through promptly — no restocking charge, no interrogation
Why Our Prices Raise Eyebrows
Every great car has a story behind it
Much of what we sell arrives straight from bank and lease repossessions — cars recovered early in their working life, not exhausted at the end of it. The banks want them gone fast rather than sold dear, so our pricing reflects recovery and preparation costs — not whatever the market might bear.
- One inspection standard, zero exceptions — repossessed or otherwise, every car faces the same 168-point diagnostic before going live.
- Provenance you can verify — HPI certified, mileage matched to the national register, any finance settled before the car travels.
- The identical 12-month warranty — major mechanicals protected, engine and gearbox included.
- The identical 14-day promise — if the price seems impossible, take two whole weeks to satisfy yourself it isn't.
If It Isn't The One
Sending it back is as simple as ordering it
Whether the car falls short of its description — or simply doesn't feel like yours — the return takes three steps and won't cost you a thing.
1. Say the word
A single call or email inside your 14 days. No forms to dig out, no case to argue — "it isn't right for me" does the job perfectly.
2. We come to you
A short return agreement gets signed and the transporter heads back to your address — you drive nowhere and organise nothing.
3. Money back, all of it
Your funds come promptly back from the holding account they never actually left — complete, with zero restocking fees and zero pushback.
Protection as Standard
Included with every single purchase
Covered door to door — and after
Full insurance rides with the vehicle on the transporter and keeps covering it right through your 14-day inspection window.
Pricing with no ambush waiting
The vehicle price, one fixed £200 admin fee, £0.30 per delivery mile and any registration fees — all written into the contract before you sign, and never a penny added after.
A year of mechanical warranty
The major components of every car are covered — engine and transmission included — through repair centres across the country.
The full paper trail, handed over
Keys, registration documents, the seven-page inspection report and the HPI certificate all travel with the car — nothing left to chase later.
