Our story

Cars had their hooks in me early - first through racing sims, then, the moment I learned to drive, a full-blown obsession.

I spent five years on the showroom floor at a well-known car supermarket, moved abroad, and returned as a Sales Manager at a franchised main dealer.

It didn’t take long to see a gap: an enthusiast-led dealership where preparation is meticulous, provenance matters, and customers value quality over a race to the bottom.

So I walked out and started Northline.

Every car has to clear three bars - specification, provenance, desirability - before it earns a space here.

Then we prepare it properly, cosmetically and mechanically, and present it with transparent history, clear photography, and straight answers.

I’m hands-on: I source, inspect, and drive everything myself because I take pride in what wears our plate.

Northline exists for people who know value isn’t just the sticker price - it’s the integrity of the product and the care behind it.

If it isn’t special, it doesn’t make the cut.
