Is the price in keeping with used car market prices?
At Motorpoint, we check vehicle prices every day. We’re so confident that we’re offering the best price, that if you find a like-for-like car for less than we’re offering, we’ll refund double the difference to you.
Is the car in an acceptable condition?
When buying a second-hand car, you can expect some wear and tear. All of our cars are checked by experts to make sure that they meet our Motorpoint Quality Standard. Our team checks the interior, exterior, wheels, and tyres of your car, as well as additional mechanical checks. Find out more about our Quality Standard.
Is anything missing?
Before you drive away, you should make sure your car is kitted out appropriately. Check the floor of the boot to ensure the spare wheel is there. Some may come with a second set of keys and you should be able to find the handbook in the glovebox. Tyres, legally, should have a minimum tread depth of 1.6mm. It’s also worth checking the fluid levels under the bonnet.
Are the electrics in working order?
Check any electrical features, such as automatic windows, mirrors, wiper blades, the air-con and radio. Do the warning lights work as expected when starting up the vehicle?
