Explore Approved Used cars at Startin Group

A wide choice of Approved Used cars

Every driver is different, which is why choice matters when buying used.

Across Startin Group, customers can explore a wide range of Approved Used cars, including compact hatchbacks, family SUVs, estates, automatic cars, petrol models, hybrids, plug-in hybrids and fully electric vehicles.

Whether you need something economical for commuting, spacious enough for family life or efficient for longer journeys, our teams can help you compare options and find a car that suits your lifestyle, budget and driving needs.

Checked and prepared before sale

One of the biggest benefits of buying an Approved Used car from Startin Group is reassurance.

Approved Used vehicles are checked and prepared before being offered for sale, helping give customers more confidence than buying privately. While exact checks may vary depending on the vehicle, brand, age and mileage, the aim is always the same: to make sure the car is presented properly and ready for its next owner.

Helpful support, not pressure

Buying a car is a big decision, and you should feel comfortable throughout the process.

At Startin Group, our teams are here to help you understand your options, not rush you into a decision. Whether you know exactly what you want or you are still comparing models, we can guide you through body styles, fuel types, running costs, features, finance options and availability.

Part exchange your current car

If you already have a vehicle, part exchange can be a simple way to put its value towards your next Approved Used car.

Startin Group can help value your current vehicle and explain how part exchange could work. This may help reduce the amount you need to pay upfront or lower the amount you need to finance.

Used car finance options available

Buying used does not always mean paying the full amount upfront.

Finance options may be available on selected Approved Used cars, subject to status and eligibility. Our teams can explain available options in a clear and simple way, including deposits, monthly payments, finance terms and what may suit your budget.

Book a test drive and compare models

A car may look perfect online, but a test drive helps you understand whether it feels right in real life.

A test drive gives you the chance to check comfort, visibility, driving position, technology, boot space, performance and how the car fits your everyday routine.

Support with petrol, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric cars

The used car market now offers more choice than ever, especially when it comes to fuel type.

Startin Group can help customers compare petrol, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric cars, making it easier to understand what may suit your lifestyle.

If you are thinking about switching to electric, our teams can explain charging, range, running costs and day-to-day ownership in simple terms.

Not sure which used car is right for you?

Our teams can help you compare models, fuel types, finance options and running costs, so you can choose with confidence.

Aftersales care after you drive away

Buying from Startin Group also means you have support after you collect your vehicle.

Our aftersales teams can help with servicing, MOTs, tyres, repairs, parts, maintenance and general vehicle checks, helping you look after your car throughout ownership.

Why the cheapest used car is not always the best value

When searching for used cars for sale, it can be tempting to focus only on the lowest price. But the cheapest car is not always the best long-term choice.

An Approved Used car from Startin Group gives you more than just the vehicle itself. You also get preparation, guidance, finance support, part exchange options and aftersales care, which can make the overall buying experience much more reassuring.

Peace of mind from an established dealer group

Choosing your next car is easier when you know there is a team behind you.

Startin Group has been helping customers with new and used vehicles, servicing, MOTs and aftersales support for many years.

Finance Disclosure

Startin Group Ltd and Thomas Startin Junr Ltd are Appointed Representatives of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd's permissions as a Principal Firm allows Startin Group Ltd, Thomas Startin Junr Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required
