    Not really there selling a car which is what we're after. When we look on google maps it comes up with a different company name, I know google images aren't recent but when you google the name it says the owner was convicted of clicking cars in 2012. Now not sure if there a new company being honest etc or if it could be the same people under a new name

    Check the name on companies house, check the name of the previous company on companies house, do some proper investigation.........

    https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk

    Things like matching director names, same registered address, same owner address, date of incorporation, etc etc etc.

    I have to be honest, I would NOT buy a car in Luton. I wouldn't risk it, could well be the same owner using another one of his 20 different aliases, or registering the business via a distant family member 4000 miles away.
