We go the extra mile...

At First4car.com, you can expect to be greeted by a friendly face. As an independently run family-friendly business, we’re only happy when you are!

We have over 23 years of experience buying and selling used cars, so when it comes to purchasing a vehicle, you can rely on us for a first-class customer experience. Our dealership is a proud part of the Pudsey community and our hardworking team are local people too.

At First4car.com we put our customers first. Husband and wife duo, Richard and Sally, built the business from the ground up and it’s very much a family affair; even their two teenage children like to learn the ropes by helping out and getting involved at weekends! Other family members who help keep the wheels in motion include IT guru Charles, and valued purchaser Bob.

An enjoyable car buying experience

When you visit our showroom in Leeds, you will immediately feel at ease. There’s no pushy sales people here, just warm and welcoming team members who are on hand to help in your car search. 

If you’re planning on visiting us soon, then we’d love to show you our current range of cars in stock. And don’t worry about leaving anyone at home, we’re child and pet friendly too! For convenience, our showroom is open 7-days a week - including bank holidays - so you won’t have to take time off work to visit us for a test drive. 

Take a look below to find out a little bit more about each of the First4car.com family members - we feel very lucky to have them on board… 

  • Richard
    Richard

    Richard is Company Director of First4Car.com, which he began more than 23 years ago. With his passion for perfection and a 'can do' attitude First4car has gone from strength to strength. Richard is happy to get out from behind his desk and get his hands dirty and can be found helping out in the workshops, hoovering the showroom or indeed any job that needs doing. Some may say he's a workaholic......... probably true, but he always finds time for his family. No one knows where he gets his energy from!

  • Sally
    Sally

    Husband and wife teams are the best! Being Richards 'better half' Sally has a number of roles within the company including human resources, accounts, website detailing, to name just a few! She also 'manages' the next generation who can regularly be found helping out on a weekend in the valet bays and office...............they are already asking when they can take over!

  • Next Generation
    Next Generation

    As a family business, we really are all involved. Our son works within the business on a Saturday, in which he is taking on more and more responsibility and showing he has the family work ethic. He has grown up being part of the motor trade and has a genuine interest in anything car-related.

    Our daughter prefers more office based tasks but again has a keen eye for detail and isn't afraid of working hard, despite her young age.

  • Luke
    Luke

    Luke is our Co-ordinator and Aftersales Manager. He has the huge task of ensuring everyone in the company knows what needs to be done and ensures it gets done! He works seamlessly between our workshops, valet team, and administration team. He's Richard's 'right-hand man'. As if that wasn't enough he liaises with customers following their purchase to ensure any issues are resolved as quickly as possible and with the least amount of inconvenience. 

  • Ben
    Ben

    Ben is one of our sales associates. He is a genuine family man who has a strong work ethic but is also the first to play a practical joke on his colleagues! Ben is often the first in the building and one of the last to leave to ensure his customers receive the very best service, and he meets his customer's expectations. Ben is not camera shy and is usually the spokesperson for First4car, recently being interviewed by Sky News for a piece on the effect of the pandemic on the motor trade.

  • Leah
    Leah

    Leah is our newest member of the team. She comes from a background in sales, although new to the Motor Trade. A pretrol head at heart Leah is already proving a great asset to the sales team. You'll be welcomed with a big smile everytime and great customer care.

    Liv & the admin team

    Liv came into the motor trade following in her dads' footsteps. Working as our administrator Liv plays a vital role within the company. She has plenty of tasks to keep her busy such as keeping the paperwork in check and ensuring our prices remain competitive. 

    Amy is very much part of the team despite working remotely. She supports both Liv and Sally. Her list of responsibilities is growing month by month! She relieves some of the pressure in the office. With a background of family within the Motor Trade and an interest in cars herself, Amy is very well suited to the job.

    Our other senior technician Mark also has many years of experience behind him. Together Mark and Marv are the dream team
