looking for an exfleet bargain

Another site that sells ex-fleet cars is Carsite.co.uk
They are all RAC approved vehicles and sell cars from Hitachi Capital amongst others0 -
Can you point us to the web page please/JCT600 contracts sell ex contract cars direct, they list them on their website and there is a tel. no. to ring to enquire about cars. I've never bought one but I have spoken to them, when my brother wanted a new taxi, and they were very helpful. I don't think they keep them on the website for long before they go to auction. They are based in West Yorkshire.

Agree with previous post.
If you have a look at the BCA (Brtitish Car Auctions) website you can see the nearest site to you and also what cars they are auctioning off this week.
You will see cars from all the major contract hire and leasing companies as well as motability there.
I would suggest going a couple of times before you buy to have a look around. In my experience prices at the moment are strong as used car stock is thin on the ground.
You will often find a better price on ebay or the classifieds - advantage here is you can give the car a proper going over and take it for a test drive as well.
Totally agree, I bought my last three cars through BCA, and I have had the current one for five years. I have converted two people to auction buying, and as long as you are sensible, and as Joel says, go a couple of times, then you will save thousands of pounds, particularly on a higher value car like an Audi.

Can you point us to the web page please/
jct.co.uk, puts you on their contract hire website, at the top of the page click on used cars. JCT600 are the retail side. I can't post a link because I don't know how.
I have bought a new retail car from them many years ago and their customer service was second to none.

Just thought i may add,
expolicecarsdirect.co.uk
i've had one from there, high mileage as would expect, but fairly cheap, plus they fix them all up, remove all the electronics etc, and even give you a 3mth warranty.(when i got it anyway)
They all come with a full and detailed service history, and you can check any part of it with the police force. even things like changed light bulbs are noted.
I got an 03 focus (1.8), with 96,000 for £1995 from them.
technically its an ex-fleet car

I'd never buy anything from JCT600 - anyone who sponsors Bradford City isn't worthy of a penny of my money.0

Depending on where you are, Black horse car sales near Birmingham are good.
They are basicaly, Lloyds vehicle leasing. When the cars come to the end of thier lease lives they are sold here. The websites really good and they're well priced cars. Heard alot of good things about them.0
