What’s Included in Our Preparation?

• Service and MOT – An up-to-date service and an MOT with no outstanding advisory work left unaddressed.
• Comprehensive PDI Checks – Every vehicle is assessed against our comprehensive Pre-Delivery Inspection checklist before handover.
• Mechanical Preparation – Inspections, diagnostic checks and necessary repairs to address issues identified during preparation.
• Deep Clean and Sanitisation – A thorough interior deep clean and sanitisation, alongside professional exterior valeting.
• Three-Stage Paint Correction – A multi-stage process designed to enhance paintwork, improve gloss and reduce the appearance of suitable surface imperfections.
• Ceramic Coating (Optional Extra) – Available as an optional upgrade to help protect your vehicle’s paintwork, maintain its finish and make ongoing cleaning easier.
• Extended Warranty (Optional Extra) – Warranties of up to 24 months are available through AutoProtect, with whom we have built a longstanding business relationship. Should you need to make a claim, a dedicated service manager will handle the process on your behalf.

Why Choose Bexhill Motors?

At Bexhill Motors, we believe that preparing a quality used car properly is just as important as choosing the right vehicle in the first place.

Unlike dealerships that focus on getting cars ready for sale at the lowest possible cost, we invest in our workshop, skilled technicians, quality parts and professional vehicle preparation to ensure every car receives the attention it deserves.

Our preparation goes beyond a quick inspection and valet. We focus on the mechanical condition, safety, reliability and presentation of our vehicles, addressing issues identified during preparation and carrying out the work needed to meet our standards.

Why We Charge a £299 Preparation Fee

Our £299 Preparation Fee allows us to maintain the high standards we expect from every vehicle we sell. It contributes towards the labour, parts, workshop facilities, diagnostic equipment, mechanical preparation and professional presentation required to prepare each car properly.

We could reduce our preparation costs by doing less, but that isn’t the approach we want to take. We believe our customers deserve a vehicle that has been carefully inspected, properly prepared and presented to a standard we are proud to put our name to.

Our Preparation Fee isn’t about charging more for the sake of it. It’s about investing in every vehicle we sell, maintaining our standards and giving our customers greater confidence in their purchase.

At Bexhill Motors, we don’t believe in preparing cars to a price. We believe in preparing them properly.
