Deposit

9. Once a deposit has been paid on a vehicle, the vehicle will be secured and removed from our advertising listings. In the event that a customer changes their mind, the deposit will be forfeited. We kindly request your understanding that re-advertising a vehicle incurs significant costs in terms of time and resources, and may result in lost business opportunities as our vehicles are temporarily unavailable for sale. 

Deposits are non-refundable and can only be returned in the following situations:

In the event that a vehicle is rejected due to an unresolved mechanical fault or the finance application falls through, or the customer will finance the entire cost of the car, including the deposit amount. We regret any inconvenience caused by such circumstances and will do our best to assist in finding an alternative vehicle or financing solution.

We are pleased to offer a variety of payment options for your convenience, including all major credit and debit cards and cash or bank transfers.

This fee will apply only to the following cards: Mastercard Debit International, Visa Debit International, Master Card World, Mastercard Signia, Maestro International, Visa Commercial, Mastercard Commercial, Visa and Mastercard Business, Mastercard Corporate, Mastercard Fleet, Mastercard Purchase, Visa and Mastercard Debit Commercial International, JCB, and Diners Club.
