Vehicle Reservation Terms & Conditions
All of Our vehicles can be reserved online with a £100 Reservation Fee which can be paid via, credit/debit card or PayPal.
Once the Reservation Fee has been paid in full, the Vehicle will be reserved by Us for 48 hours to allow the Buyer time to arrange an appointment to view the vehicle within this Period.
​
This means that Your vehicle is reserved so no one else can view or purchase the Vehicle saving you from a potentially wasted trip.
​
The Reservation Fee is fully refundable in instances where you turn up to your appointment and for whatever reason, you are not happy with the vehicle and decide not to purchase. If you fail to arrange an appointment, turn up to your appointment, or cancel your appointment, the deposit is NOT refundable.
​
In any instances where a Reservation Fee is paid on a vehicle which for what ever reason is no longer available, the Reservation Fee will be refunded in full.
