Our Journey
Twenty-one years spent doing it properly
HJ Motors started out in 2004 with three cars, a single forecourt and one unshakeable conviction: that buying a used car ought to feel exciting rather than stressful. That conviction still shapes everything we do.
Our People
A dealership built on customers who return
Most of the cars we sell go to people we've sold to already — or to their families, friends and colleagues. None of that is luck. It comes down to choosing every car we buy as though it were for us, preparing it as though we meant to keep it, and pricing it as though the customer could read our invoice.
We remain family-owned and family-run. The person who welcomes you at the door, the technician who checks over your next car and the voice on the end of the aftersales line all work beneath one roof — ours. No call centres, no scripts, no pressure.
More than 4,800 cars on, our promise hasn't shifted: if it isn't good enough for our own family, it isn't good enough for yours.
What Guides Us
The principles behind each sale
You Come First
Everyone on our team is paid a salary, not commission. The one target that counts is that you go away happy — whether or not you buy today.
Expert Inspections
Our own workshop checks 168 points before any car earns its place on our forecourt. Roughly one in four we look at never makes the cut.
Buying Without Surprises
Pricing checked against the market, one fixed £200 admin fee, delivery charged at £0.30 per mile — and every known fact about a car's history laid out before you commit. Nothing waiting to catch you out.
Dependable After-Sales
A 12-month warranty at minimum on every car, a nationwide repair network and a direct line to people who genuinely know your vehicle.
How We Prepare Each Car
What we do before you ever set eyes on a car
- Provenance up front — HPI check, mileage confirmation and service-history validation, all before we buy.
- 168-point inspection in our workshop — brakes, suspension, electronics, diagnostics and a road test.
- Servicing & MOT — serviced when due; a fresh 12-month MOT whenever under six months were left.
- Expert detailing — a thorough valet inside and out, so collection day feels like collecting a new car.
Judge it for yourself — at home
Pick your car online and we'll bring it to your door inside 5–14 days. Then spend 14 days testing and inspecting it — if it isn't right, send it back for a full refund.
