Salesmen trained in all finance

“Our salesmen are trained in all aspects of finance, and we can offer no-deposit terms with up to five years to pay,” Paul Chaney, the managing director of Paul Chaney Motors, said. “The finance can be arranged — confidentially —. on our premises, and we also oner new lowerinterest rates.

"We can also arrange sickness benefit insurance for people buying cars on finance, and a comprehensive insurance cover of vehicles purchased. “Paul Chaney Motors will trade more expensive cars on cheaper cars and pay the difference cash in. In fact, we will trade makes and models of all cars in all price ranges, regardless of their condition, and we will arrange to pay out the existing finance owing on trade-ins,” he said.

“We are prepared to make our cars available for independent or A.A. mechanical inspection. “All new-car buyers should come to the likes of us for a second opinion on the price of their trade-ins before accepting what is offered by the franchise dealer.

“We always have unlimited money available to buy company fleets, for people going overseas, for cars from people who are purchasing off other dealers, or even people who are buying privately. “We are prepared for the intense competition in the nlotor business, and we are prepared to give the purchaser a better trade-in price and sell him a better car for his money.”
