My name is John Churchill.
I have been in the motor trade for many years. (Well, since the 80's!) I have held many positions from buyer for a busy independent garage, to dealer principal of a franchise garage. I have sold many different types of cars from Lada's to Porsches. During the last 23 years I been working from my home in Yate.
I work with a UK based car importer with over 30 years experience in the motor trade. Together, with our team of agents in Japan, we are able to cherry pick the very best low mileage Japanese cars available.
All our cars are meticulously checked and prepared to the highest standard. We can also offer you advise on Sat Nav and alloy wheel upgrades and even give you choice of number plate styles!
We do keep some cars when in stock when possible, but the majority of our cars are reserved and purchased before they arrive in the UK. Cars can be reserved with a refundable £500 deposit.
During the preparation process, we will keep you fully informed of progress including updates of UK registration, service, MOT, valeting and detailing. You will even be able to follow the progress of your vehicle on a live shipping app as it travels to the UK.
Preparation includes;
Full UK registration.
Service and mechanical preparation where necessary.
Full 12 months MOT - without advisories.
Full Valeting and detailing.
3 months warranty (extension options)
You can collect your car from us in person or it can be delivered to your home address by our preferred professional logistics company.
You can expect the same high level of service, preparation and customer service that I have enjoyed providing over many years.
Thank you for taking time to visit my website.
Kindest Regards,
John.
Frequently Asked Questions.
Below are questions that I've been asked in the past. Please feel free to get in touch if there is something else I can help with.
Where can we view your cars?
Viewing is by appointment only and can be arranged during the day, evenings or at the weekends. Time wise I try to be very flexible. Just call or email to make arrangement's.
How can we pay?
The most popular way to pay is bank transfer. We supply our bank details and you arrange payment either over the telephone or using Internet banking. For other methods of payment please contact us.
Why do you fully describe your cars and take so many pictures?
We pride ourselves on accurate, honest descriptions and photographs. The majority of my customers come from some distance away, so it is important that we offer as much in the way of pictures and description as possible. This helps customers to make an informed choice and in most cases, people are happy to agree a purchase over the phone and then make a one stop visit to collect their car.
How else can you help with my buying decision?
If requested I am more than happy do give you an in-depth description of the car you are interested in. This involves me examining the car whilst giving you a full description on the telephone. This enables you to ask any questions regarding the condition and specification.
Can you deliver our new car directly to our door?
Yes. I can arrange for your car to be delivered directly to you, provided it has been fully paid for.
Are you able to offer finance?
No. I have found that there are many banks, finance and loan companies that are able to offer funding. In many cases the rates are sensible, you can apply online and in some cases they can give a decision on the same day. So I tend to leave it to customers to make their own finance arrangements.
Do your cars come with a warranty?
Yes. All my retail cars come with a comprehensive 3 months warranty. You can then upgrade the warranty at cost price! (from about £178 for 1 year £1000 per claim, unlimited claims, for a 4 cylinder engine. Other options available.) I have found that this is the best warranty as it is underwritten by a major insurer and means that should you need to claim you just take the car to a VAT registered garage of your choice, (not main agents) give them our warranty documents and they do the rest.
What standard are your cars prepared to?
As you can see from my testimonials, I do take a lot of care in preparation. When I write a description of a car it is done very thoroughly, giving you information on service schedule, condition and drive. All cars are professionally valeted. All traces of previous ownership are removed. The result is a car that is as clean and fresh as possible for its next owner.
