We go beyond the industry standard 100-200 point checks, test drive, service history, and HPI checks by thoroughly inspecting for model-specific issues, mechanical health, and cosmetic condition. We use tools like a sun gun for light analysis and an electronic paint depth gauge to assess the vehicle’s paintwork. We look for any signs of previous filler work or panel replacements and if it does we immediately disqualify the vehicle for sale.
At Automotive Addiction, all cars designated for sale must come with complete service and ownership records. As we say, “a car is only as good as its owner,” making ownership history a key factor in our selection process. Unlike other companies, we do not buy from auctions or trade outlets. Instead, we source only the most exquisite, privately-owned examples that will appeal to the true automotive connoisseur or collector.
For more insight of our inspection process, please watch our in-depth video.
Our aim is to go above and beyond industry standards. With total transparency, we make sure we find the right vehicle for you, and instil confidence at every stage of your journey. You can see for yourself that the difference is in the details.
The Automotive Addiction Difference. Our 100 Hour Preparation Process is a meticulous journey to perfection for EVERY vehicle that leaves our doors.
It begins with Selection & Inspection, where our careful acquisition forms the foundation of our business. Next, the Maintenance & Mechanical Health Check ensures each vehicle undergoes an extensive 120+ point check by top-tier tuning partners. Our 8-Hour Pre-Detail & Purification process includes a deep cleanse, preparing the vehicle for paint correction. The 40 Hour Paint Correction Detail involves multi-stage machine polishing in our state-of-the-art detailing studio’s. Finally, the Final Inspection & Photography under 3,000 watts of LED lighting guarantees every detail meets our standards. The vehicles are then placed in Storage & Presentation in our clinically-clean showrooms, maintaining their pristine condition for clients.

EXCELLENT Based on 321 reviews Posted on Rick matthewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought my RS3 from these guys back in 2021. They were super helpful, the car was exactly as described and was delivered to me in Northumberland in a covered trailer and had been prepared beautifully. The car was immaculate and exactly as promised. They even sent me a comprehensive guide for cleaning the car - that I still use today. I did have an unfortunate sensor failure in the first few weeks and again this was sorted with no quibbles or issues. I can't fault these guys for the quality of their cars and their customer service. Thoroughly recommend.Posted on JayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After being a repeat customer of Automotive Addiction for the past 8 years, Dhyllan kindly offered the option of a SOR deal for my G80 M3 Competition. This meant I achieved a much greater return than I would of done selling privately or using a generic car buying company. Once again another 5 star experience with Automotive Addiction, meaning I will be a returning customer for many years to come.Posted on CookyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Visited Automotive Addiction for the first time this week on a recommendation from another customer who speaks very highly of their business and work ethics and the quality of their craftsmanship . After meeting Lewis and the team I was showed around the business and given information on what they have to offer. I was also shown cars that had just been detailed and I can see as a person with a very keen eye that they are top of their game and I was very impressed which doesn’t happen too much these days. I have a new car on order and as soon as it is delivered it will be going straight to Lewis and the team to take a new car to the next level of newPosted on MrC2958Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sold my 8Y RS3 to them, quick fast and friendly service. Money was in my account before the car went on the trailer. No issues at all and very happy 👍Posted on Lyudmil SmilenovTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and meticulous in what they do! Highly recommended coming from a repeat customer 🙌🏼Posted on Preet KaurTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Picked up my new car, Porsche Macan. Excellent service from the garage, all the finer details as in they sprayed the brakes in yellow as I had asked them to and the car was ceramic coated. I was given flowers to add which was a nice touch too. Much appreciated the above and beyond service provided, most definitely recommend Automotive addiction.Posted on yassam fareedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

From start to finish, the process was smooth, transparent, and handled with great professionalism. Dhyllan, who I dealt with personally, was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. He took the time to answer all my questions, provided detailed information about the vehicle, and made sure I was completely confident with my decision before finalising the purchase. His communication was clear and consistent throughout, and he made the entire process feel relaxed yet efficient. The Audi RS3 itself was presented in immaculate condition, exactly as described—if not better. It’s clear that Automotive Addiction takes pride in the quality and presentation of the cars they sell. The attention to detail and the care they put into both the car and customer experience really stood out. I would highly recommend Automotive Addiction to anyone looking for a high-performance vehicle and a stress-free buying process. Thank you to Dhyllan and the team—I’m absolutely loving the car!Posted on sukhmanpreet singhTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
