I have just bought a Mini Cooper from Bill over at Carderi sales, and this was a distance sale as we are 160 miles from their showroom.
Clearly when distance buying you need to trust that the car is as described in all aspects, and be able to trust the dealer.
I can honestly say that I have nothing but positive comments to say about my whole experience of dealing with Bill. He went out of his way to send me full service details and show me around the car remotely. The delivery price was very fair offering the first 100 miles free, and then on the day of delivery he and his father even took the car to be valeted before arriving at our house as the trip up had been wet.
The car was also great value !
Well done Bill, it was a pleasure.
