About Us

At St James Motor Company we pride ourselves on customer service by being extremely thorough and particular with the cars we purchase in the first instance and our extremely high rate of repeat business is indicative of this.

We have always been keen to remain independent car dealers, thereby having the ability to choose the best cars available regardless of their make and supply them to our customers. With many years of buying experience we ensure that all of our cars are presented to the highest standards possible.

It is very easy to compare two vehicles on price, specification and mileage alone but how a vehicle has been treated throughout its life is important. At St James we scrutinize every vehicle we purchase thoroughly to ensure that all cars we offer for sale are the best available.

Currently we can supply any make of new vehicle. As the savings that we can offer are often far greater than that of a main dealer, and the waiting time is generally shorter, we are selling many more new cars than ever before whilst maintaining our high level of service to all of our customers.

Company History

St James Motor Company was founded in 1981 on what we believe to be Southampton's longest running car sales premises (pictured left) and has been run as an independent specialist vehicle supplier ever since. In 2006 we celebrated 25 years of business and are looking forward to the next 25 years.

St James has always been a family owned business, this continues to the present day and into the future!

The company was established with the ambition to supply and service the finest low mileage vehicles available coupled with the desire to provide a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere in which our customers can have their motoring needs catered for. This ambition has continued through to the present day. Being a non-franchised dealership we are aware that we must provide a superior, more personal service to franchised companies in order to compete in today's marketplace and do this to the best of our abilities every day.

How it used to be!
