They're the best!!!!!!!!!!!
So much fun dealing with Derek. Very knowledgeable, super fun, and very accommodating! Sold my car in 3 days for exactly what I wanted for it. I'm probably always going to use Spady Auto Group to sell or buy a car in Scottsdale. Highly recommend them for your car needs.

Not all refurbished land Rovers are the same. More than 1000 man hours have been put into this vehicle. its is basically new. The end result is a beautiful vehicle that the next owner will love.

Amazing collection of 911’s.
Amazing collection of 911’s. Beautiful set up. Great knowledge, service and zero push. Not my last Porsche I would buy there
A great weekend cat that is versatile.
A great way to enjoy your free time and go both around town and also go off road. A real head turner that will be fun to drive every time you get behind the wheel.

Loved the care we got when buying our new Nautilus from Lawrence. He took the time to show us all the new items on the car and how to work them. He was patient with our questions and got us rolling and enjoying our new ride.
$34K New, $36K used? Wow!
How many other 4x4s can boast negative depreciation? How many trucks? Other than exotic cars, few 97 MY vehicles can. But if you are a Defender owner, you can't help but smile. While it's not for everyone, the few that decide to join our ranks are rarely dissatisfied. I've had more than one fellow Defender owner state that he's going to have to be buried in it before he gets rid of it. Such is our passion, such is our enthusiasm. Don't buy it if you're looking for plush, quiet comfort. Buy it for the exclusivity, the genuine feeling of supremacy that no other truck can give, new or used.

100% BETTER IN PERSON, ARE YOU ONE OF A KIND?
This is a vehicle you don't see, everyday. If you want a vehicle that will continue to appreciate and yet enjoy, here you go. This is the last year the vehicle ever legally came to the USA. Watch out for non-Nas.

Great timed replies and working to get my price and dtermine location of unit.amen
i love my car
i will never ever sell my car. even though i have strangers making offers,putting pleas to sell it on my windshield. i tell them i will sell when i am too decrepid to climb up on the runningboard [iam afit 57 yr. old.] the mpg is terrible,as is themaintenace cost ,but ive actually had zero mechanical problems in 12 yrs. i leave the top off april-oct, so i have some interior elec. problems-no radio,no trip milage ,and my odometer functions, but is only visable occasionly,so going thru the inspection lane has to be timed accordingly, just one more adventure for a rover lover!

I purchased a C8 convertible about 1 1/2 years ago from Autoboom. They were clear about price and doc fee. I purchased a 3-year warranty which I never do, but the price was right and I've used it 2x for small issues and every mechanic accepted the warranty. I would purchase from this dealership again and likely will.

I would like to thank Tommy for making the purchase of my 1977 Caprice Classic Landau which I have named “Tammy” an easy transaction . I was very nervous at first buying a sight unseen vehicle but the video and pictures from Tommy were spot on! It took me more than 2 years to find this rare vehicle . If you are on the hunt for a special vehicle I feel you can’t go wrong workin with London Motors. Give them a shot for your special ride

Made a long distance purchase.
Made a long distance purchase. Was very leary buying a car that I was unable to test drive. But Jordan pretty accurately described the car and even offered to help set up an independent person to evaluate it. Came across as a reputable business that I would work with again.
