Our services

Trained Technicians & Genuine Parts

Work is only ever undertaken by trained technicians using genuine parts, approved tools and diagnostic equipment.

Nothing less.

Stringent Inspection

There is a stringent checklist of 165 inspection processes in place that has to be followed to the letter.

This ensures your vehicle is in optimum electrical and mechanical condition and its bodywork is pristine.

The inspection always includes paintwork, interior, a complete engine preparation, road test and a final inspection before the vehicle is personally signed off by our certified Jaguar / Land Rover / Volvo Technicians.

All vehicles must pass all 165 checks to become approved.

Road Testing

Vehicles undertake a road test during which our technicians look to assess the unique performance characteristics of each vehicle.

For instance, suspension, vibration, braking systems, engine performance, transmission and nine other specific areas are monitored to ensure the vehicle's optimum performance.

By undertaking such rigorous testing, the quality of your approved vehicle can be guaranteed.

Ella and the team went above and beyond to help us with the purchase of our new car. Hands down the best car buying experience I have ever had. Ella was responsive, accommodating, friendly and not at all pushy, beating all the stereotypes. Cant recommend enough.

Tom Shand

Absolutely outstanding service from Ella. She really did go above and beyond! From coming to pick up my old car, and drop off the Polestar 2 to try out for a few days. Needless to say the customer service experience was 10/10! So very happy with my new car. Thank you so much for making it happen so effortlessly, Ella!

Dylan Bateup

AMAZING customer service!! Ella was amazing in the process in purchasing my car, allowing me to take car for overnight to get a feel for the car and have peace of mind when confirming the sale. The free year warranty was a bonus and purchasing the extended mechanical and electrical warranty was a great deal. Ella got excited with me and made the whole purchasing a car easy, carefree and enjoyable! Would hands down recommend Giltrap for purchasing a new vehicle. Thanks guys - def no buyers regret at all!
