Independent since 2009

A Liverpool
car business,
run the old way.

No glass palace, no commission-hungry sales floor. Just a well-kept forecourt on the dock road, a workshop behind it, and a team who'd rather sell you the right car than the dearest one.

Our story

Sixteen years on the dock road

Mark started Mersey Motor Co. in 2009 with six cars, a kettle and a Portakabin. The plan was simple and hasn't changed: buy good cars, prepare them properly, price them fairly and tell people the truth about them.

Sixteen years later we've got 10 cars on the pitch, a full workshop behind us and a customer book that's mostly repeat business and word of mouth. Families come back for their kids' first cars. That's the bit we're proudest of.

We're not the biggest dealer in Merseyside and we've no interest in being. We'd rather you got the right car and came back in three years than shifted metal and never saw you again.

How we work

Three things we don't bend on

Straight talking

One price, clearly displayed, with no admin fees bolted on at the end. If there's a mark on a car we'll show you it before you ask.

Our own workshop

Three MOT-qualified technicians on site. Nothing goes out for sale until it's been through them, and they look after your car afterwards too.

Properly local

We're on Regent Road, we live round the corner, and most of our business comes from people who bought here before. That keeps us honest.
