Snagged myself a 2021 Mercedes GLC 300d through Cushnahan Logistics back in December. The aspect that raised my eyebrows the most was the separate business account, as I had never seen that before when purchasing a car. They laid their cards on the table and explained their setup, along with the terms, before I handed over the cash. My car showed up right on the dot, and I had a Mercedes whiz take a gander at it afterward!

The problem is there are so many fake car/transport websites now that even genuine businesses end up looking suspicious when they use an unfamiliar buying process. I'd personally rather see the car first, but that's just me

I’ll add a less than ideal experience. I bought a 2019 Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian from them a few weeks ago. The car showed up and technically everything was OK but there were two scrapes on the rear quarter that appeared worse in the flesh than they did in the photos
I protested. To their credit they didn't dispute about it. We agreed some money back toward getting the paint sorted locally,
So sure mine wasn't 100% perfect and I wouldn't pretend it was but they did handle the matter well enough.

That's actually more reassuring to read than another "perfect car, perfect service, 10/10" post.
How a business reacts afterwards tells you more.

Right lads, update...
The imaginary Audi exists.
Arrived yesterday.
Driver rang about half an hour beforehand because our road is fairly tight and he wanted to check where he could unload.
Car looks exactly like the listing from what I can see. Interior is spotless and all the paperwork was together.
Not declaring it perfect yet though.
Mechanic has it tomorrow morning.

Good start.
Come back after the mechanic has tried to ruin your weekend.

Mechanic has now had his fun.
Everything important checks out. Brakes, suspension, diagnostics, underneath etc all fine. He pointed out the front tyres probably have another year rather than the "loads of life" I'd convinced myself they had, but that's about it.
So yes, I can finally admit the wife was wrong
Very relieved.
