Better than WBAC!

From first contact through to handing over the vehicle, the whole process was straightforward and hassle-free.
A sensible offer was agreed via email/WhatsApp based on my description, well above the usual car-buying sites. As I am local, I took the car up to show them some damage to the alloys and door card, which I was going to get fixed before the sale, but time was against me. Kylan agreed a reduction at a similar value to what the repairs were going to be anyway. On the day of collection the driver turned up, did his checks and discovered a small dent which. A further small, and sensible deduction and the sale was completed. DJ Ltd paid the outstanding finance directly to the finance company and all proof etc shown by the driver.
If you have a nice car to sell then reach out to these guys, highly recommended.

Great experience selling my Audi to David James. Kylan was excellent throughout – communication was clear, easy, and everything was handled in a straightforward and professional way.

Taylor, who came to collect the car, was also a really nice guy and made the handover process smooth and hassle-free.

Overall, a very positive experience from start to finish. Would definitely recommend.

Thanks to everyone at David James!

Recently sold my M240i through David James and was an absolute pleasure to deal with!
Other garages had either quoted unrealistic prices, or had an attitude as if they didn't care about the car or customer. Kylan reached out and helped get all the details finalised within a couple of days, and the car was collected the following week.
Was sad to see the car go but couldn't have left it in better hands!

Great experience

I filled out a valuation online and Kylan came back quickly with an offer I was happy with. Ian travelled 5 hours to collect the car, he confirmed the car was as described and I had the full price agreed paid into my bank allowing me to buy my new car the same day.

Thoroughly recommend DJL!

I honestly couldn’t recommend DJL enough if you’re selling a performance car. Sold my Golf R to them this morning and the whole experience was spot on from start to finish. They offered around 10% more than both WeBuyAnyCar and the dealer part-exchange, which immediately stood out.
What really impressed me though was how smooth everything was — finance was settled hassle-free, communication was clear and quick the whole way through, and there was absolutely no messing about or haggling when they came to collect. Just a straightforward, professional service done properly.
Made the whole process a lot easier than I was expecting!

Just sold my X3M to David James

Just sold my X3M to David James - 100% upfront and helpful. They gave me a good price for the car as well. I dealt with CJ throughout the process and Ian for the car pick up - two great guys and faultless customer service. Would use again and consider buying a car if I was in the market.
