Images are taken here in Hove. Which is 8 miles away from the "Business" address.

Google Maps

Seems legit enough.

No personal experience myself.

Have a look at Google Earth Streetview for their postcode BN6 9BP; it's a pretty rural location. Look for online reviews and also check on Companies House to see how long they've been going, the names of the Directors and financial position. One bonus is that the photos of the cars for sale on their website all seem to at the one location.

I'm relatively local and have never heard of them. It's a hell of a journey to a dealer you know little about.

Thanks!
Hoping an evening bump may offer some more insight

Just having a sniff around... they are B&L Trading Ltd, owned by LUCA BARBIERI and DINGYI LIU from a flat in Hove and the company is registered at a flat in Imperial Wharf. Set up in May 2025.

If you are spending £20k on the car, I'd go and see it, view the V5, service history etc

That’s my new plan! Sunday night in Brighton ready to view on Monday. Waiting to hear if that scares them. Or if they will still offer to bring it up.
