At Sun Motors, we’re proud to be doing our bit to support your trusty local used car dealership.
By buying through Sun Motors, you get reassurance that every dealership and every vehicle has been thoroughly checked.
You’ll also be able to access credit deals and get pre-approved for finance before you shop.
Read on to find out why you should buy via Sun Motors.
How does buying from used dealerships save money?
Online car marketplaces have set values for cars, with no room for movement.
Local dealerships, on the other hand, have the freedom to set their own prices. That’s why you’ll often see variations in values for similar makes and models.
When you buy from a used dealer, you may be able to pick up a bargain, especially if the dealer needs to make a sale.
How does Sun Motors support local dealerships?
Sun Motors is a used car marketplace, connecting buyers with sellers.
We add value to the exchange by providing simplicity and convenience. We also check and validate every dealer, so you can buy with confidence.

Each car advertised on Sun Motors is being sold by a local dealer. Many have brick-and-mortar forecourts and are staffed and owned by people like you.
At Sun Motors, we’re giving these dealerships the chance to connect with buyers across the UK. Instead of just selling locally, they’re able to access the millions of buyers searching for a used car.
We’re also simplifying finance, too.
Car buyers can search for a used car online with pre-approved credit. Dealers know they’re dealing with people who can access that cash to buy the car they want.
How can I find out specifics about the motor?
We know that a lot of AI is hype, but when it comes to buying a used car, it’s a godsend.
Sun Motors’ AI chatbot enables you to ask questions about any make and model and get instant, accurate answers.

Whether it’s engine size, fuel economy, or in-car entertainment, the free AI chatbot knows almost as much as your trusty used car dealer.
Want to speak to a real person, not a robot? You can use the WhatsApp chat function to connect with dealers.
You can ask specific questions about any car, and dealers are happy to provide information and pictures if it helps them make a sale.
How does Sun Motors allow me to shop for what I can afford?
It’s easy to get carried away when buying a new car, but Sun Motors can stop that from happening. Our intelligent finance function enables you to shop by what you can afford.

Can you negotiate with car dealerships?
The simple answer is: you can try.
Online marketplaces mean that car buyers and car dealers know the value of a used car. This means it’s harder to pick up a bargain, but not impossible.
Cash is no longer king, with credit finance now being the preferred way to buy a used car.
Margins on a used car are tight, too, with dealers charging a 10% margin on a used car. It may sound like a lot, but factor in the costs, and there’s little room to play with.
We recommend doing your research, reading reviews, and selecting a suitable make and model before you buy. Having access to all the information puts you in a stronger position to negotiate.
We can’t guarantee you’ll save much, if anything, but it doesn’t hurt to try.
