This is the second cor I have purchased from Adrian, on both occasions the cars were very well prepared, the service was friendly and non pressurised.

I've waited over three months since purchasing my Jaguar XKR from Adrian to properly evaluate the car, and I can say that I am just as delighted with my purchase today as I was on the day that I collected the car. Adrian is a nice person to deal with, not pushy, he just shows you the car and asks if you'd like to buy it. We struck a fair bargain and the car has proven to be was exactly as described with no unpleasant surprises. A minor issue was dealt with under the warranty without quibble. I would certainly buy another car from Adrian.

I bought a beautiful low mileage Mercedes SL500 from Adrian last month. He has some lovely cherished cars in the showroom. It was a genuine pleasure to deal with him throughout. No fuss, no pressure and very honest advice. I would have no hesitation in recommending any of my friends and family to pay him a visit if looking for something special.

I purchased a Bmw M3 from Adrian the car was spot on ! In fact every car in his showroom was spot on ,fantastic honest guy to deal with , If you want a car you need look no further than Adrian Blyth , if I’m honest 90% of car dealers give you all the old chat like “ the car is 9 years old you have to expect a respray etc etc , but not Adrian you can trust this dealer 100%

I purchased my F Type from Adrian a while ago, The buying experience was excellent Adrian was very knowledgeable left us to inspect the car without any pressure. When we were ready to test drive the car he allowed us to drive and thoroughly test it. He gave us a good and fair price for our trade in and carried out a couple of minor repairs to the F Type without question. I recently had the car serviced at the main dealer and had to have the bonnet adjusted costing circa £200, whilst not covered under the warranty Adrian was good enough to make a significant contribution. Adrian is a nice guy and will look on his website the next time I am in the market for another car.

Having looked at a couple of beautiful Jaguar XK convertibles with Adrian & Marc, neither were right for me. So I gave Adrian the remit of what I really wanted and just 3 weeks later Marc sent a message saying that he may have found something for me. When I saw the photos sent from the owner, I just knew this was the car for me- it matched every single requirement on my checklist. Marc said that he hadn’t seen the car in the flesh yet and wouldn’t buy it if it didn’t measure up. I’m pleased to say that it did, and I am now the proud owner of a beautiful XK convertible. Adrian and Marc work well as a team and are both excellent communicators. I really felt that they looked after me during the whole process and I’m thrilled with my car.

I purchased a Mercedes SLK from Adrian in early May 2021. The car in question was miles better than any other SLK I had seen and had literally covered many less miles than any other SLK I had seen. The mileage was supported by a full Mercedes service & MOT history. The car is perfect and Adrian was always easy to deal with and never pushy answering many of my questions several times. I also received an excellent p/x price for my trade in. I will certainly be contacting Adrian the next time I am in car purchasing mode as likewise I have recommended Adrian Blyth Sports & Performance Cars to several of my friends and family. All in all this was a relaxing and an excellent car buying experience.
Thank you for that experience Adrian! Best Wishes. Will Wilson

In forty years of buying cars this was the best experience to date. My car was well prepared (as all the others seem to be) and a repair issue was dealt with quickly and promptly under in-house warranty. No sales pressure and excellent customer service before and after purchase. Highly recommended,

The service I received from Adrain was superb and he did everything promised.
Recently I decided to sell my Jaguar XK Convertible after many years of happy ownership but after getting several online valuations and p/e quotes from dealers decided to sell it myself. The thought of going through the process of advertising and dealing with potential buyers didn't really appeal and I was unable to offer finance etc so could see this was also not too attractive.
I have known Adrain for several years having visited his showroom when visiting my son who lives close by and knew Adrian offered a customer selling service as long as the car met his exacting standards. After an initial discussion with him he agreed to take the car for a 6 week period. At the outset we agreed a price he would give me once the car was sold which was more than I would have sold it for privately and I left the car with him some weeks later.
The end result was the car was sold within the first week after Adrian had prepared it, I received the agreed amount , the new owner has bought a really nice car and everyone is happy!!
I would highly recommend this service to anyone who has a quality car and wants to deal with a really nice person.

I was delighted with the service and part exchange deal. 3 weeks later the car developed a charging fault Adrian , with out hesitation or delay, agreed for a repair at my local garage.This was completed and Adrian paid the garage directly with no argument .I would recommend this business without reservation and I will certainly be back. Thank you Adrian.

Andrew Walker

We bought a stunning low mileage XK and are absolutely delighted as it has completely exceeded our expectations. It’s proved to be a worthy replacement for our much loved Alfa GTV which was sadly wrecked on the M25.

The preparation of the car was fantastic with not a single blemish - it's like new. The sales process was a pleasure and we appreciate the warranty as it removes a lot of the concerns of buying a classic car. I’m pleased to report that the process hasn’t changed a bit since I last bought a beautiful Chimaera from Adrian in 2002!

I purchased a Porsche 911 from Adrian a couple of months ago and found him to be an absolute gentlemen in his dealings with my purchase. I did have problems within the first week of taking ownership of the car, nothing that could have been foreseen during the service or MOT. Adrian dealt with the issue promptly and fairly under his warranty. I am delighted with my car and would definitely recommend Adrian to anyone as a genuine and honest person to do business with.

I had been thinking of purchasing an XK for some time and finally the circumstances were right. This was a significant decision for me and I felt increasingly uncertain trawling through the various dealers on the internet. I felt that I needed the guidance and assistance of a specialist. I was aware of Adrian Blyth whose showroom was relatively local to me, did some background research through a friend in the motor trade and read the reviews. There was universal approval so I arranged to meet Adrian and outline the specifications I was looking for. He was professional, authoritative, calm and understated and immediately inspired confidence. He felt certain he could find me the right vehicle and duly just under three weeks later I took delivery of an exquisite Osmium Blue XK, immaculately presented and the car that fulfilled all my expectations. I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending Adrian Blyth Specialist Cars.

Adrian has some lovely cars in great condition and I bought my dream car from him a couple of weeks ago. His customer service is attentive and informative, no pushiness whatsoever. Having now had to wash the car for the first time I better appreciate just how much effort had gone into its presentation when I picked it up. Adrian is a thoroughly decent man doing a really great job and I found the whole process clear, fair and straightforward. I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Oh, and the car is not just beautiful it works and works very well. Sarah

KS Haywards Heath

Sometime ago we bought a Saab Turbo cabriolet, it was a pleasure to deal with Adrian. He was straight forward diligent and a proper gentleman. I very recently used the 'SELL YOUR CAR' service which Adrian offers, Adrian guided me through the process and I have to say that the entire service that was given to me was truly outstanding! The presentation/marketing/communication of my M4 had it sold and paid for in a week! Adrian when to great lengths on all levels to secure a sale on my behalf and for extremely modest financial reward. Could not recommend this company highly enough whether your buying of need to sell your car.

Travelled from Glasgow to buy one of Adrian's cars. The car was in mint condition and everything he said it was. Buying from Adrian was very simple and straight forward - a refreshing change from buying from volume dealerships. I would certainly not hesitate in buying from him again. Highly recommended - 5 Star Plus!

I purchased an SL320 from Adrian a month ago, sight unseen (based upon his excellent reviews). The car was great and the whole process relaxed, but professional. More importantly I needed to make a warranty claim which was handled immediately and payment made directly to a specialist local to me. There is an adage that you should judge the quality of service by the response you get when something goes wrong .... I have it's 5 stars from me!

I've bought two cars from Adrian over the past few months, and on each occasion found him to be nothing less than a gentleman to deal with; attentive, knowledgeable and courteous. His cars are presented like nothing I've seen before, beautifully prepared and detailed. I would not hesitate to recommend Adrian Blythe Specialist Cars to anyone looking for a pre-owned, luxury or sports car.

I bought a Porsche from Adrian recently. The car was in mint condition and had a low mileage having been purchased and driven in Jersey. The service was friendly and professional and exactly how you want to be treated when buying a big ticket item. The quality of the cars and the service are first rate and I couldn't recommend Adrian and his team highly enough.
