Standard payment terms

We have a wide range of supplier payment terms depending on the nature of the supply and the negotiated terms of each supplier agreement.  Non-vehicle supplier payment terms are typically the end of the following month from date of invoice.  New vehicle supplier payment terms are dictated by our manufacturers and vehicles can remain in stock depending on the manufacturer for up to 365 days before payment is due. Payment is taken automatically by direct debit usually within 3 to 5 working days after registration of the new vehicle.

Dispute resolution process

All invoices are processed by our centralised accounts department. The process involves getting managers to authorise their departments invoices for payment and in the event of any queries arising they will contact the supplier directly to try and resolve the query. If the manager cannot resolve the query it will be escalated to the accounts department and relevant departmental Director to resolve.
