Checking out the best used car dealerships in Manchester can be frustrating. Aside from having a multitude of them to choose from, you also need to consider other factors such as their credibility and reputation.

We looked into several of the different used car dealerships in Manchester and checked what they have to offer. One of them is J&S Manchester Car Sales Ltd.

This car dealership has a good selection of used cars to choose from. You can choose from a number of manufacturers, locally or stateside, along with model year, car type, mileage, transmission, and more.

Every car in their stock list goes through safety checks and maintenance so they remain in outstanding condition by the time a buyer looks into them. They ensure the quality of their used cars by providing a minimum three-month warranty and MOT testing for roadworthiness. 

We believe that ensuring the quality of the cars can help customers build the confidence to check out their cars. That and the competitive prices they set for their second-hand stocks. 

In order to help car buyers further, they also offer car financing options to make purchases more convenient. They can even extend these options for those with bad credit history.

One thing we think they are missing is offering the option of buying the current vehicles of potential car buyers. Most of them usually plan to sell their cars before considering purchasing another. 

But despite that, having quality and reasonably-priced used cars help convince car buyers to consider giving J&S Manchester Car Sales Ltd. a visit. But it is also worth noting that site visits are possible only by appointment.

While walk-in visits are not allowed yet due to Covid, visitors can be assured that the health and safety of clients are their utmost concern. After all, that’s part of the care they extend to customers.

When checking out the car dealerships in Manchester, it is important to determine if they are trusted and know what they do. This will help ensure that you purchase a quality used car that’s reliable. 

We can say the same for Mylson Ltd., a used car dealership with a number of upsides. For one, they have a wide selection of premium used cars for you to check out. 

Having a variety of choices help make a car dealership. But for us, that is not all you need to think about.

You also need to consider the quality of the used car you’re eyeing to buy. You need to be assured that your choice has the level of quality you expect. 

Mylson Ltd. assures customers of this by having their cars thoroughly checked using a 128-point vehicle inspection. The cars are prepared at registered workshops and all the other work needed completed on the Mylson Ltd. site.  

We believe that this will help ensure that the used cars listed are of high quality. After all, addressing certain used car issues before they are sold is more than the assurance customers need to check out this car dealership in Manchester.

Mylson Ltd. also considers themselves as finance specialists. They work with several established lenders to provide clients with their car financing needs. 

Working with multiple lenders also allows them to consider potential used car buyers even with bad credit ratings. It all depends on the approval once the buyer applies for the right car financing option.

We also think that it’s a good idea for them to offer nationwide delivery for their cars. This will help attract even customers who are located outside Manchester.

One issue we noticed is that their car list prices are above the usual average for certain models. But that can be understandable, given the thorough inspection they give to their cars to ensure its quality.

One other thing to consider is that they only allow visits to their used car lot by appointment only. This may be a hassle for some car buyers who prefer to walk in to check out the cars available.

But on the other hand, it is also a good measure to ensure the safety within their facilities. In a way, it can also help them filter out customers who really are intent to buy a used car from those who just want to look at the cars.  

Dace Specialist Car Centre Manchester is a used car dealership with over 25 years of experience in the business. We think this gives them an advantage over other dealerships in terms of expertise and knowhow.

Aside from experience, they also have a wide selection of cars that customers can choose from. They range from the affordable compact cars, SUV’s, vans, and even used luxury 4×4 car models.

Each car gets HPI tested before they are put up on sale. The test provides about 80 data points about the car, including vehicle history, mileage, previous owners, outstanding financial or insurance status, and more. 

This test, along with the other safety and roadworthiness tests they conduct, helps ensure that the used car they sell is in tip-top shape and problem-free. We think this also helps prevent them from getting complaints from their sold cars later on.

To further assure customers of the reliability of their cars, Dace Specialist Car Centre Manchester provides an in-house warranty to cover for their cars. They are one of a few, if not the only, of the used car dealerships in Manchester to offer such a coverage.

For us, the in-house warranty cover helps build customer confidence since the dealership does not rely on third-party warranties for their used cars. 

In a way, they are stamping their good name on the cars they sell to ensure customers that they are top-notch.

But one thing we are concerned about is the above-average pricing of their used cars. They tend to be a tad bit on the high side for some of the more popular models.

One reason might be because of the care and attention they give to each car to ensure its quality and reliability. But then again, they also offer to price match a like-for-like used vehicle from other dealerships when one is found.

Some customers may also be put off that the dealership also acts as a credit broker for their car financing partners. This means they can get commissions when car buyers avail of the different car financing options they offer and are approved for it.

We think it is commendable that they are transparent about it to their customers. But on the other hand, having different financing partners can also provide customers armed with good or bad credit ratings with a variety of financing options to choose from. 

More or less, we’d like to think of it as the best of both worlds.      

Car Deals 4 U offers top quality used cars at very competitive prices. We believe that great pricing is always the main factor why people choose certain used car dealerships in Manchester.

Aside from attractive prices, this dealership also ensures that the cars go through stringent health checks to ensure their reliability. 

We like this aspect because it ensures that car buyers not only check affordable used cars, but also models that are roadworthy from the inside and out.

They are also able to provide car financing options for customers, even those with poor credit rating. Working directly with banks for this and not just through third-party lenders allows them to provide the most ideal financing options for different situations.

One other thing we think will appeal to many customers is their added services. They also offer car servicing and repairs to people with car issues.

They can also help book you through an MOT service to test your car’s safety and roadworthiness. You can let them do the work for you when you need to maintain or have your car tested while you stay stress-free during the process.

One possible drawback we think may affect their appeal to the public is the limited selection they have. But this might be a seasonal thing and stocks can be updated when more used cat models become available.

Being a distance away from the city centre may also have an effect on customer visits. But this may also be an advantage since it provides customers a better means of test driving the used cars first without the worry of city traffic.

Manchester Performance Cars provides a quality selection of quality used cars. Whether you are looking for used small cars, vans or popular luxury models, they may have something that you want.

When you do find one from their selection, you can be assured of getting a model that is already checked for roadworthiness. Each car is fully serviced before they are included in the stock list of available cars. 

For added assurance, each car comes with a warranty once you buy them. They can also go out of their way to provide you with car maintenance advice and guidance to ensure that each purchased used car can last long.

One thing that we think may be a drawback is that they do not always have an extensive list of stocks available. But they are always open for you to call them to inquire about certain car models that you expect to buy to confirm if it’s available. 

One other thing that we think may work against them is the lack of information about the car financing options they offer. It is not entirely clear if they do offer such options since such information is not available online. 

But on the other hand, they really offer quite competitive prices for their stocks that car buyers may not need financing in the first place. 

Regardless, having car financing options available can really increase the appeal of more car buyers to check out certain used car dealerships.
