2nd hand car showrooms

[Pugwash]

Can anyone recommend a good 2nd hand car showroom?  I do not think my car will pass its MOT next month so am on the look out for another car. Family have used Lancers in Beckenham for their last 3 cars, but they only have 1 automatic drive (Nissan Duke) which is too big for me. Would like Ford/Vauxhall etc or similar size. Must be automatic, petrol and ULZ compatible. At this stage just want to get an idea of what is out there and prices. Hopefully my car which is 20 years old, passes MOT this time which will give me longer time to look around.

Doesn't it depend on how much it would cost to get your existing car through its MOT, if it fails?

Use ebay as a price guide.

I'd recommend CarGiant - big selection. Bought 3 cars from them for family members. The first I still have after 22 years.

Need to see and try the car physically - need to transport at times, a fold up mobility scooter in the boot. Also several relatives/friends with disabilities.

Noticed that  Car Giant is listed as being in White City.  Prefer somewhere in South London/Bromley area as have difficulty accessing some public transport due to mobility issues.  The body work of my car is not brilliant and this could cause it to fail MOT
