Quality used cars & servicing in Oxfordshire

A family-owned used car dealership
Dowleys Garage in Carterton, Oxford specialise in supplying late model, low mileage vehicles. Occasionally, we may have older models available, which we will have taken in PX. Such cars can also be suitable as "first time" vehicles. Yet, being a family business, if a used car is not up to our standards, they won’t find their place on our forecourt. We can source any vehicle. It may take up to a couple of weeks but if we don’t have what you are looking for, we will do our very best to find it for you. Simply let us know your requirements.

Used Car Warranty
At Dowleys, most of our used vehicles come with a minimum 6 month warranty, which can be extended to 3 years. We operate a “pressure-free-zone” in our showroom, we don’t force anyone into buying a car. In the past, we've even talked someone out of buying a vehicle, because they were over-committing themselves to a financial plan. This is not the usual practice that we appreciate, but the interest and needs of our customers come before our profit. In our trade, a great way to stay in business is by being honest, upfront and often empathetic with our customers.
