Buying from Car Broker - ockham
I am looking at buying a new car from a broker. Anybody got any experience/advice on this? In particular anybody know if "UKCARBROKER.CO.UK", are OK? They are based in Derby and are the web trading name for UK Vehicle Logistics Ltd.

Any comments gratefully received.

No personal experience but not seen anything bad about them. Have seen a couple of postings suggesting that they are OK. One positive thing would be if any monies are paid direct to a dealer rather than to them as brokers.

The broker puts you in touch with the dealer. You only pay the dealer. I've used ukcarbroker once without problems. Delivery wasn't included in their price but is included with drivethedeal so you may need to travel to collect your car or pay them to drive it to you.

I've used ukcarbroker ockham - a very positive experience.

All monies go through the main dealer - you pay ukcarbroker nothing, you just benifit from the big discounts.

Try a forum search on 'broker' as there have been a number of related threads.
