Looking for help? You’ve found it

No. All our cars are used, under 7 years old, under 70,000 miles and have been quality checked.

All our cars go through comprehensive, thorough checks – called HPI (Hire Purchase Investigation). This is to ensure that the car you want to buy isn’t financed elsewhere already, hasn’t been written off from an insurance claim or been badly damaged.

Rest assured, we'll never sell a car that's been officially categorised as a write off – i.e. CAT N D. Every car is thoroughly checked before it goes up for sale.

You can either choose free home delivery with cinch and get a quality used car for a fixed price (and get a 14-day money back guarantee), or you can visit your nearest approved dealer who may (you never know) be flexible on price. It’s entirely up to you.

We regularly review the market and update the cost of our cars based on market values – so our customers are offered the best prices.

All cars will be serviced in line with how old they are and how many miles are on the clock.

Our cars may have been privately owned or bought from a business. All will have comprehensive checks.

We offer free home delivery to mainland UK, the Scottish Islands and the Isle of Wight postcodes only. We do not currently deliver to Northern Ireland, the Isles of Scilly, the Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey and the other Channel Islands. We also reserve the right not to deliver to certain addresses due to vehicle access limitations.

We offer click and collect in the UK mainland only.

Yes, you’ll be able to book a convenient 2-hour slot at check out.

Your car will be driven to your home address by our trusted cinch drivers, so there’s no need to worry about access. It couldn’t be easier.

No, this is free. There are no hidden fees or charges.

Home delivery and collection is available 7 days a week, including bank holidays. Yep, even bank holidays.

Yes, you’ll need photo ID (e.g. your driving licence or passport). If you don’t have your driving licence or if the address on it is different to the delivery address, then you’ll also need a utility bill/bank statement (less than 3 months old) that includes your name and current address. The reason? We want to be sure that the person who bought the car is the same person who’s taking the keys.

That’s no problem – we’re only happy if you are. You can simply make the most of the 14-day money back guarantee. For both home delivery and click and collect customers, we will pick up the car from your home address. Just let the Customer Experience team know and they will arrange collection.

We’ll ensure that the petrol light isn’t on and there’s enough fuel to get to the petrol station – that way you can enjoy your car right away.

For sure. Your delivery driver will happily take you through the car’s basic features and controls.

If you notice any scratches or marks on the car, please highlight them to the driver on delivery or your cinch handover specialist for click and collect. Then get in touch with our Customer Experience team.

We offer 2 plans – Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) & Hire Purchase (HP). PCP is a form of hire purchase finance. If you like to change your car regularly, but want low monthly payments, this is a flexible plan that could save you a lot of hassle. HP, on the other hand, is where you pay off the car in monthly instalments, with the loan secured against the car. Full details of both plans can be found at cinch.co.uk.
