Before visiting us

Whether you are collecting a vehicle (click and collect) or dropping off your vehicle for service and repair (drop and leave), we have site-wide safety measures to keep both our team and you safe + protected.

We will arrange an appointment pre-call with a few questions to ensure the appointment can progress safely:

• Ask regarding contact or symptoms of Covid-19.
• Advise that face coverings are compulsory in line with government guidelines.
• Explain our digital contactless payment transactions.
• Reassure you that our appointments are carefully managed to give you space.
• Confirm that sanitising products and procedures are in place.

 

We understand that despite best efforts, things don't always go to plan; your used car purchase hasn't worked out as you'd hoped; the car doesn't meet your needs; or perhaps the garage is narrower than you thought.  

Don't worry. We care that you are happy with your used car purchase, and so have introduced the Harwoods Used Car 7-Day Money Back Guarantee.

If you decide you want to return your used vehicle within the first 7 days, let us know and we'll give you a full refund, no questions asked.

• 7-Day return period.
• 250-mile allowance.
• Risk-free used car purchasing.

 

From valuation to exchange, we are committed to ensuring the best part exchange experience, and will continue to do so with our safety measures in place:

• Part exchange is by appointment only.
• Your car will be appraised from a safe distance. Our team cannot be in direct contact with your vehicle.
• To aid this process, you will be asked to show the vehicle, by opening doors, windows, and starting the engine.
• Your vehicle will only be driven on the day of exchange, with any adjustments made straight away.

Get your new car quickly with Harwoods Click and Collect. Once completed, we will safely handover your new car:

We finish where we started, to reassure you that it is not you or Harwoods that has changed, it is how we do things.

We are the same family company with the same values, aimed at creating memorable experiences no matter what the service or product is we are providing for you.

We understand that this is a more difficult time for some than others; some things may be confusing or not fully understood. So please do call us should you need further assistance.

   The same Harwoods, a different way.
