A family-run firm with ‘old fashioned’ values

Shipley Motor Company Ltd is owned and run by brothers Andy and Carl Stevenson, who between them have notched up over 44 years of experience in the motor trade.

Shipley Motor Company Ltd, a member both of the Federation of Small Businesses and Retail Motor Industry, has just celebrated its 9th anniversary. Based on ‘old-fashioned’ standards of courtesy, quality and customer care, it has built up a dedicated base of satisfied customers who keep returning to update their vehicles. In fact their record of customer care is so good that they were awarded 94% in a recent Good Garage Guide listing!

The dealership specialises in selling high quality used vehicles at sensible prices. Many are one-owner examples with full service history. With a selection of vehicles permanently on display from stylish Superminis to spacious People Carriers, you might even find something that you hadn’t considered before…

If you can’t see exactly what you want, then have a word with either Andy or Carl who will then personally search for the vehicle that is right for you. Every vehicle comes with a full MOT and, for total peace of mind, is also equipped with Andy and Carl’s personal comprehensive guarantee in addition to having its history exhaustively researched through Hpi/Equifax.

When you visit the dealership, you are sure to be delighted by the low-pressure atmosphere that you’ll find. None of the staff believe in hassling their customers, so you are free to browse at your leisure. If you would rather be shown around the selection, and have the finer points of each model explained, then all you have to do is ask. Test drives are equally easy to arrange of course.

To help with the initial financial outlay, the company offers a range of flexible finance plans including weekly payments. Although there is no such thing as guaranteed finance, the brothers will work harder to get you a better deal and secure you the lowest interest rates that your credit history allows. Due to their dedication, many people have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to afford the vehicle of their dreams. What is more, vast volumes of incomprehensible forms and paperwork won’t weigh you down – the brothers can guide you through the worst of it and deal with the rest themselves.

One-way to judge a company is by the level of repeat business they do. A look through their customer records for the last year reveals an astonishing 51% of sales were to people who had previously purchased a car with them, or friends and family of previous customers.

This high level is indicative of the service that Andy and Carl give each of their customers, and it is no wonder that they have over 5,000 satisfied customers in the local area alone!

In the past few years, Shipley Motor Company Ltd has gone from strength to strength. The fluctuations in the new car market have meant that more cars are coming onto the forecourt as used bargains.

Often these cars are only a few years old, traded in as their owners suddenly realise that the price of a new model they had their eye on has dropped substantially. This is of course fantastic news for the astute used car buyer, who, by the nature of the used car market, can take advantage of the massive depreciation suffered by new car owners, while not actually being detrimentally affected by it themselves.

Highest standards!

The company takes a great deal of pride in their stock and maintains it to the highest standard possible. What could be a better start to the summer than buying a high quality used vehicle from Shipley Motor Company, clean and ready to for long lazy days away?

Through recent expansion, Shipley Motor Company Ltd are now pleased to be able to offer service and repair facilities. Andy and Carl can now offer their customers the same high standard of customer care throughout their ownership of the vehicle purchased.

Shipley Motor Company Ltd – all the experience and expertise to guide you from test-drive to purchase and beyond.
