About The Motor Firm
An independent dealership in Flamstead, St Albans, built on doing things properly.
The Motor Firm is an independent used car dealership based in Flamstead, on the edge of St Albans. We keep our stock deliberately small and deliberately good: cars we've chosen ourselves, checked ourselves and prepared to a standard we'd be happy to hand to family.
Buying a used car shouldn't feel like a gamble, and selling one shouldn't feel like a fight. So we keep things simple: clear prices, straight answers and a proper price when you have a car to sell or part-exchange. Get in touch and you'll deal directly with us. See the cars in the showroom, or get a price for yours.
How we prepare every car
The same process for every car that goes on sale, whatever it costs.
- 01
Checked before we buy
History and condition are checked and the car is HPI checked before it ever reaches the showroom. If it doesn't stack up, we don't buy it.
- 02
Inspected and prepared
Each car is inspected and prepared before collection, with a fresh MOT and service where the listing says so.
- 03
Priced clearly
The price on the car is the price you pay. No admin fees at the desk, and a fair, firm price for your part-exchange within 24 hours.
- 04
Sold with warranty
Every car leaves with 3 months warranty included, and we're still here after handover. Questions after the sale get answered, not dodged.
