2020 has taught us that customers must now be able to choose how much they interact with retailers, and Powell’s are no different.
We have invested in new ways of working and communicating to ensure that you can decide how often you need to visit our premises. Including not at all. Completely remote, contactless buying is now a reality for both new and used cars, whether you are a cash buyer or want to take advantage of our finance offers. All backed up by a no quibble 7 day/250-mile money back or exchange guarantee.
It is called the Remote Buying Journey
Browse and select a car
The Baden Powell website is where to start. Here you will be able to browse our new and used stock, as well as download E brochures and view high resolution images and videos. You can also get an indicative part exchange valuation for your car and a finance (HP or PCP) quotation that will not affect your credit score (until you go to full application).
Our sales team are on hand to provide further details, including supplementary photos and bespoke video presentations. You can communicate with our sales team via a plethora of means – phone, email, WhatsApp, text, Messenger, Zoom, Teams and Facetime.
Test drive
Once you have narrowed your search down to a specific vehicle, we will arrange a home test drive. This is unaccompanied and fully Covid compliant.
Secure remote transaction
Once you’ve found the car for you, all the buying admin can be completed remotely. Reservation fees, deposits and final balances can either be transacted online or over the telephone, and documentation can be completed either electronically or remotely, including finance paperwork.
Home delivery
Once you’ve given us the go ahead, we will arrange home delivery at a time convenient to you. Again, in a fully Covid compliant manner.
Aftersales support
We are always at your disposal to answer any queries. Whether it be tuning the radio or booking in for a service. As a Powell’s customer, you qualify for free contactless collection and delivery for all service and MOT appointments (distance restriction applies). Alternatively, you can opt for a complimentary loan car or take advantage of our bottomless tea and coffee while you wait in our socially distanced waiting areas.
