The advantages of buying a used electric car
Electric cars are much more cost-effective to run than traditional petrol or diesel vehicles. The cost per mile of charging is far cheaper than refuelling, and because EVs have fewer moving parts, servicing and maintenance are typically simpler and more affordable too.

Instant torque, near-silent operation, and seamless acceleration makes it a joy to drive. Whether navigating city streets or cruising on the motorway, the smooth, quiet power delivery provides a calm, responsive, and premium-feeling journey.
Driving an electric vehicle produces no exhaust emissions, helping to reduce local pollution and your carbon footprint. EVs are also exempt from Birmingham’s ULEZ and other Clean Air Zone charges, giving you even more savings and flexibility.
With no annual road tax (VED) on most pure-electric models and significantly lower Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) rates for company car drivers, going electric can be rewarding for both the environment and your wallet.

The Arbury Approved Promise – electric and effortless
Buying with Arbury means buying with confidence. Our Arbury Approved Promise ensures every EV meets strict quality and safety standards before it reaches our forecourt.
Each vehicle undergoes a 100-point check tailored to electric models. Our manufacturer-trained technicians test the high-voltage battery, charging equipment, and electrical systems alongside essential mechanical and safety components, ensuring the car performs flawlessly.
All Approved Used EVs come with at least a 12-month warranty, covering mechanical and electrical faults for extra peace of mind. In addition, the original manufacturer battery warranty (typically 8 years or 100,000 miles) is fully transferable to you, so you can drive with total confidence.
We believe in complete transparency. Every car undergoes a full history check, confirming its mileage accuracy and ensuring it’s free from outstanding finance or previous accident write-offs. You’ll receive a detailed report for your records.
We want you to love your new car. If you’re not completely satisfied within the first 14 days of ownership, simply return it for a full refund – no hassle, no stress.
Making the move to electric is even easier when you trade in your current car. Whether petrol, diesel, hybrid, or electric, we offer competitive part-exchange valuations to help make your upgrade seamless and affordable.

Charging your used electric car – simple and flexible
Charging an EV is easier than ever, with options to suit every lifestyle:
Home charging: The fastest, most convenient option is to install a dedicated wallbox at home. Plug in overnight and wake up to a fully charged car ready for the day.
Public charging: Across the UK, thousands of public chargers make longer trips simple. Rapid chargers at motorway services can top up most batteries to 80% in 30–45 minutes, while fast chargers at supermarkets or car parks add useful range while you shop.
Workplace charging: Many employers now offer charging facilities, making it even easier to keep your EV topped up during the day.
Flexible finance to suit you
We make owning an electric car simple and affordable with two flexible finance plans:
PCP finance is ideal if you prefer lower monthly payments or want to change cars more often. Here’s how it works:
• Pay an initial deposit.
• Spread the cost with fixed monthly instalments over an agreed term.
• At the end, you can: pay the optional final payment to own the car, return it (within agreed limits), or part exchange it for another EV.
HP financing is a straightforward way to own your EV outright:
• Pay an upfront deposit.
• Repay the balance through fixed monthly instalments.
• When the final payment is made, the car is completely yours.
Our knowledgeable sales team will guide you through both options and tailor a plan that fits your budget perfectly.
