Consignment Sales
If you are looking to sell your Range Rover or Land Rover but don’t want the hassle of private selling then a consignment sale agreement may be suitable for you. A consignment sale is an agreement between you and Kingsley Cars Ltd, in which Kingsley undertake to prepare, market, show and sell your vehicle on your behalf for a fee. Kingsley also undertakes to give a purchaser a minimum of 3 months full warranty — what we call ‘The Kingsley Warranty Promise’ (see warranty section). Whilst there is a 15% fee for the service the net that you receive is normally more than you would receive in a private or auction sale as Kingsley is a specialist and offers full dealer services with finance and peace of mind with warranties.
A Trusted Name
Kingsley can act as a selling agent in a similar way to an Estate Agent would for your home by preparing the car for sale, valeting, advertising, handling all enquiries, test drives, accepting a part exchange and providing a 3‑month warranty as well as finance for the purchaser.
The advantage for you is that as the leading specialist restorers of Range Rover’s means we’re better placed to sell your vehicle for a much greatest amount than you would achieve in a private sale so it is easier and often financially better for you to have Kingsley to sell your car.
We can also offer you a guaranteed buy price (which will be lower than the return price) if we don’t sell within a period. We can offer you a price to return you if your car sells on consignment and provide a price at which we would buy your car from you, giving you peace of mind that whatever the sale or return success we will return a minimum pre-agreed sum for your car.
Peace of Mind
Changes to the Consumer’s right act 2015 mean that when consumers buy a car from a dealer, if any problem with the car is detected within the first 30 days that was evident at the time of purchase a full refund can be achieved.
We fully prepare your car once which comes out of the sale price and offer a 3 month warranty to the purchaser — the cost of which comes out of our 15% fee.
Part Exchange
Kingsley can take in any car in exchange against your car, whatever the price. Our business is funded entirely by ourselves, consignment sales account for about 2% of our overall sales, unlike many other independent garages.
Servicing/Preparation
We have an on-site top specification workshop, welding shop, body shop, trim shop and MOT lane to prepare cars to a high standard ready to sell saving you unnecessary hassle of having any repair work done elsewhere.
Consumer Rights
Changes to the Consumer’s Right Act 2015 mean that customers are more likely to buy a car from a dealer, as if there is a problem with the car there is recourse. With our SOR service we can bring your car in to our workshop, prepare it to its full potential and sell it from which will naturally attract many more buyers than would be achievable privately.
Warranties
Kingsley Cars Ltd provides a comprehensive ‘return to base’warranty to all customers, this is in house cover unlike many other 3rd party providers like Warranty Wise & Auto-Protect as we don’t exclude any major items from our policies. Customers like to have the peace of mind of having a fully warranted car when spending large sums. If the engine falls out of a car when bought privately, there is no re-course whatsoever.
