How is your discounted vehicle registered? Vehicle Registration Process
Most of our supplying dealers are able to register vehicles in your name as the 1st Keeper.
However with certain manufacturers they do stipulate alternative ways to apply the discounts.
All our vehicles are supplied with the same manufacturer’s warranty and road side assistance package. The minimum is 3 years but some of the manufacturers have extended the term. For example Toyota is 5 years, Kia 7 years
Where do you get your vehicles from?All our vehicles are brand new supplied direct to you from the manufacturer’s dealer network. If we can’t locate a vehicle you can factory order the vehicle to your specification. No Imports at UK Car Discount Ltd
Do you accept my current vehicle as part exchange? We don’t have the facility to re sell second hand vehicles. However customers seem to obtain the best prices
from the online car buying companies. Based on customer feedback We Want Any Car seem to offer the best values.

Brian, one of the team goes above and beyond to sort any problems out. The process of buying through them is simple and you can feel 100% safe as you only pay a deposit and then after the car is on your driveway and you are totally happy you pay the balance.
They put trust in the purchaser from the start, so you can put your trust in them.
Recommend to all interested in purchasing a new vehicle with better than other competitive prices.
I give UKCD 5 stars for regular status updates, patience and a pleasant manner in all dealings with them. I will use them again in due course and recommend them to anyone having doubts about a car purchase through the Internet (be wary of some). This is a legitimate company and very professional, hence the 5 star rating.
I approached UK Car discount and was amazed with their first class service before, during and after the purchase of our new car. Every member of the team that I dealt with were very professional. This company has been a pleasure to deal with, their communication, attention to detail, delivery and after sales has been impeccable throughout. I would definitely use this company again and will have no hesitation in recommending UK Car Discount to friends and family.
