MN Vehicles Ltd is a fast-growing, highly reputable independent car dealership based in Shrewsbury, ideally positioned to attract buyers from across Shropshire, Telford, Oswestry, Welshpool, and mid-Wales. The business operates from a secure and well-equipped forecourt, selling a steady volume of approximately 14 vehicles per month, with an average sale price of £3,000.

Founded in late 2023, MN Vehicles has quickly established a strong brand and trusted reputation within the motor trade. It is an AA Approved Dealer, with consistently 5-star reviews, strong repeat business, and a rapidly expanding customer base driven by referrals and online visibility. The business is structured for both retail and finance customers, with national home delivery offered and all key partner accounts already in place (warranty, finance, transport, etc.).

What sets MN Vehicles Ltd apart is its blend of professionalism and simplicity. The stock is hand-picked for high-margin resale, overheads are low, operations are efficient, and the business has been built with scalability in mind. Assets include approximately £130,000 in vehicle stock, £10,000 in tools and equipment, and a fully functional forecourt setup including security systems, trade plates, office infrastructure, and branding.

Financially, the business is performing exceptionally well:

2024 turnover: £318,000

Net profit margin: 25–30%

2025 projected turnover: £350,000

Current net profit (annualised): ~£93,600

All systems are in place, from digital advertising to sales documentation and customer follow-up templates, making this a turnkey opportunity for a new owner — whether experienced in the motor trade or new to it. Comprehensive training can be offered post-sale to ensure a smooth handover.

The business has been valued through eight different professional methods, including discounted cash flow, asset-based, precedent transactions, and industry benchmarks — with an average valuation of approx. £299,000, making the asking price both fair and attractive.

MN Vehicles Ltd is more than just a car business — it’s a highly scalable, well-oiled operation with a proven brand, real cash flow, and the infrastructure in place to continue growing under the right ownership.

Premises & Setup

The site benefits from a 10-year lease and can accommodate up to 35 vehicles. It’s a secure unit, located just 3 minutes from the A5, offering easy access to major towns and excellent logistical reach for nationwide delivery.

Online Presence & Marketing

The business is actively marketed through major platforms including CarGurus, Motors.co.uk, eBay, Gumtree, and the AA Cars website. It also benefits from a Google Business profile and social media pages that bring consistent leads.

Reason for Sale

The owner is relocating abroad and is therefore seeking a smooth handover to the right buyer. This is a personal decision and not due to any decline in business performance.

Support & Handover

To ensure the continued success of the business, the owner is offering full training and support for 3 months. This includes everything from sourcing stock and handling paperwork to advertising, trade contacts, and sales strategy.
