After finishing my Education at Uppingham School in Rutland my parents were not surprised when I said I wanted to go into some sort of Car business. As you can see the writing had been on the wall from an early age.

I have always had a passion for cars. I started with a full retail operation with workshops, staff and a forecourt but the overheads were astronomic. At the end of the day, this reflected in the retail price of cars - always remember a big retail dealer will have to pass on the cost to the customer somewhere along the line.

What I now do is very straightforward. I find cars for people, so my overheads are simply an office, phone, computer and 2 members of staff.

The good thing is that everybody who buys from Alex Creasy Ltd is getting a deal. By charging a flat fee and buying at a trade price nobody is scratching their head looking at me as if to say "have these guys just fleeced me for a couple of grand or have they done me a good deal" because you know what we are earning per car.

All the cards are on the table.
