We just want to thank you and your colleagues for supporting us again. Ee are very pleased with out WAV, my wife can enjoy family outings with her mobility chair secured using the winch. We were really baffled twice as to what could have caused the engine light to show some faults suddenly at short notice. Thanks to you & one really efficient local garage we were able to get back on the road within a few days. We are very grateful for your care & concern including the swift payments with problems not covered under the warranty!;0

Informative and low pressure sales, and I was happy to purchase a low-mileage WAV from Wholsale. A rare failure of the Ad-Blue system 2 weeks after purchase required 500 of work; this was smoothly sorted under warranty, with vehicle o/c for less than 48 hrs! 6 star service!

Recently purchased a WAV and I'm over the moon! Fantastic car, running like a dream. Chris, Richard and Toni gave superb customer service. Wholesale Car Company came across to me as a highly professional business with people who care, who want to get wheelchair users mobile at quality prices. There is a good selection of vehicles ranging in price and vehicles are stored in a good layout for the wheelchair user. I wouldn't hesitate recommending this company - top quality!
