About Gem Cars

Hi my name is Gina

My husband is Mark and he is a qualified Auto Electrician who owned his own garage with 4 staff for 20 years and has also taught motor vehicle studies at Lincoln College. We also have Dave working with us, he came on board with us in 2018 he is also a qualified Mechanic and now part of our Gem Cars family.

Over the years our friends and family have always asked us for help finding their new cars. So as my husband has over 28 years of expertise in the automotive industry I decided in 2014 to set up Gem Cars Ltd.

I wanted to do things differently by creating a family approach to the business, so when you arrive to view one of our vehicles we will talk you through the vehicles features and happily answer any questions you may have, we will then leave you alone in a no pressure approach to look round the vehicle, if your children are with you they are welcome to come in and play with our children whilst you look at the vehicle, then if you like the car you can take the car on a test drive and if after the test drive you would like to purchase the car you can leave a deposit and come back another day to collect, alternatively if you'd like to take the car on the day we will complete all the paperwork with you.

My husband buys the cars from two local main dealers, most come with full history most come with invoices, all come HPI checked and clear.

None of our cars come from auctions!

He then takes them for a 20 mile road test to check for any faults If there are any mechanical faults we take them to a local garage for the repairs, i.e. clutches, cam belts, brakes, wheel bearings, tyres etc all repairs come with invoices. If there is any doubt on a cam belt my husband always removes the covers where possible and checks it.

Over the last six years we have sold over 2000 cars with only a handful of complaints to date which we dealt with as fairly as possible, this is something we are very proud of and hope to continue for many years to come.

We are a family business with family values and we pride ourselves in putting customer satisfaction first.

When you come to view you are welcome to bring, the AA, the RAC your mate, your dad, your mechanic or indeed all of them and you can spend as long as you like checking, inspecting and test driving the car we are insured for unaccompanied demonstrations so you don't need any insurance.

Sincerely

Gina Applewhite
