    Car importers

    Used Virgin cars for my last one. They were OK but not spectacular service. Any suggestions for good value new car importers?

    Which marque are you aiming for?

    Dad went through a independent company to buy his 5 series from Belgium, was pretty good afaik. This was when the old shape had just made its appearance, so 5 or 6 years ago now. Was a full UK spec car, with a rather nice lot of extras, and a slight discount (came out about the same, cause instead of taking a price cut, he piled on the extras)

    My parents bought a Belgian Yaris from a place in Bradford, which seemed OK, but the manual arrived in French and it took a little while to get an English one (this was about 5 years ago, mind). I can't remember the name, but there can't be too many there...

    There's also a big place in Tingley you could try (just south of Leeds). Again, name escapes but I'm sure a quick Google will find it.
