Welcome to Podium Cars and thank you for visiting our website. We are located in Brantham, Manningtree, between Ipswich and Colchester on the Suffolk/Essex border. We are within easy access of the A12 and A14. Manningtree train station is just 2 minutes away.  

We are a self financed, family owned and run business. We offer an informal, relaxed environment in which you are very welcome to view our cars.

An appointment to view our cars is not necessary but we advise phoning ahead of your visit if you would like a test drive in one of our vehicles. 

​Unlike Car Supermarkets, the price we advertise is the price you pay. We do not charge Administration fees, and there are no hidden charges.

​Our aim is to provide our customers with complete satisfaction and piece of mind when purchasing their new vehicle. We fully appreciate that a new car is a very important purchase for you, and as such we are very happy to assist you in making the right decision for your circumstances.

We offer a detailed description on our website of each car currently offered for sale. If you require any further information or photographs please give us a call.

All of our cars are hand picked from numerous trusted sources. We only offer cars for sale that we have personally inspected and driven. 

All of our cars have been Hpi checked for Accident Damage and Outstanding Finance. 

All of our cars are supplied with a minimum of 6 Months Blue Chip Premium Warranty. Extended warranties are available at very competitive prices.  

Please visit us to see the quality and pedigree of our vehicles before committing to cheaper alternatives or overpriced main dealer and car supermarket vehicles. We only sell cars that we are proud to put our name and reputation to. 

Our preferred Finance Partners are Blue Motor Finance. However, as we are approved members of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), we are able to receive payment from any FCA approved lender. 

A surcharge of £199.00 will apply for vehicles sold through Zuto and Car Finance 24/7. This is simply to cover the extra costs incurred when dealing with these companies. 

Please quote FRN649458 when speaking to your chosen finance provider.

We review our prices weekly to ensure we are continuously offering the best possible value for money to our valued customers.

We offer many services on site, such as MOT's, Servicing, Tyre Repair/Replacement, Paintless Dent Removal, Vehicle Diagnostics and Alloy Wheel Refurbishment. Discounts are offered to our valued customers.  

We accept payment by all major Debit and Credit Cards.

We look forward to meeting you soon.
