Simple process from start to finish

Simple process from start to finish. I knew the exact car I wanted and Stephen provided me with regular emails to make the process run smoothly. A quick call to provide deposit and car ordered - easy. After deposit was paid, Stephen provided me with ‘what will happen next’ info and a point of contact who will manage the purchase. All good and a great saving.

Great service, great price

Forces Car Direct are efficient, effective and maintain contact from the start all the way thru' to car delivery.
If you like a model on their site I find it hard if not impossible to beat the price or indeed the service

Just ordered a RAV4 and all well up to now. The ordering process is straightforward and the price you see is what you pay, sounds too good to be true but I have checked everything out and all ok. A small admin fee and a £300 deposit and away you go. I have got over 12k off of the main dealer price who incidentally only offered me 1k off the full price. In short a brand new 50 grand car for 38.
I will review again when I get my car.

Outstanding Service and Unbeatable Value – A True Asset to the Armed Forces Community

I cannot speak highly enough of Forces Cars Direct. From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless, transparent, and tailored to meet my needs.

They go above and beyond to ensure that those who serve or have served receive not only exceptional customer service, but also exclusive savings and deals that genuinely make a difference. The pricing is incredibly competitive, and the level of personal attention I received was second to none: a five-star company through and through!

Top Discount, Exceptional Service

As ex Navy I found these guys by chance on the Defence Discount Services site. I had already called the other well known DDS supplier (Motorfinity) 4 times and never received the promised call back. These guys managed to secure a whopping £4.5k discount on a £38k Audi A3 and service was absolutely seamless and friendly. Will definitely be using Forces Cars Direct next time.
