You’ve gotta love Matt’s honesty - he’s happy to slag his cars off yet is trying to sell them to his customers. Refreshingly honest rather than the usual car salesman trying to pretend every car is a beauty!

Become one of my favourite KZfaq channels. Been watching for a few years now. Love the honesty and transparency. Don't change!

Hi Matt loved the video of your stock no holds barred not many dealers would do that . Hats off to you honesty personified

Sadly, an honest car dealer is a rarity indeed, and Matt deserves the recognition as part of the minority of dealers with integrity. My brother lived down the road from Matt's dealership for years and bought a few cars from over the years that were always excellent. In fact, my brother told me 'Matt actually talked me out of more cars than he sold me.' (Considering my brother is an automotive F*ckwit that is so refreshing to hear.' ) I wouldn't hesitate to buy a car from High Peak.

An unusually honest salesman who doesn't absolutely love every car he sells, with a great head for business for someone so young. Keep up the good work.

If everyone was as honest & genuine as Matt, the world would be a better place.

I own a dealership in Lincoln and watching your videos there are a lot of parallels. Very similar stock profile and numbers and seemingly the same issues, stock that you think should fly out the door sits around for ages, people expecting the world for not a lot of money and renting a dilapidated premises with landlords unwilling to sell it! As a blanket rule we do not source vehicles newer than 4 years so we reduce the risk to a degree of competing against a “main dealer”. Nice to have a little insight behind the scenes!

Hi Matt, my dad had a car show room on the50s until 1999. As a kid I loved looking round the cars. When I was about 5 there were e types mk10s, sunbeam alpines big humbers et al. My treat every Friday night he brought a flash car home and took me for a rip in it. Esp enjoyed the convertibles. My first car was a herald convertible. If u went over a bumpy road the doors used to self open. He ran the attached workshop and I was amazed when he had several engines etc doing a bit of work here and there, answering the phone, doing recovery call outs. I used To drive at 10 yrs old the old land rovers used to shunt all the smashed up cars about. Tow bar front and back, no roof left outdoors all year.lovely smell, canvass roofs rotten.He could only read but not write ( something I learnt after he died it just never struck me)my mother administered his business. He left school at 14 but his general knowledge was incredible was in the last part of the war and died aged 94. He owned several motor related businesses. I have very fond memories of his “garage”. The police used to borrow cars as they had few. I don’t think he ever skinned a customer wether car sales or spannering. Would help anyone. This vlog has flooded my memory myself a tender 64 yrs. thankyou and nice stock

Matt is the very first dealer that is as honest as you’d like. Having just been round the hills with a dealer, it is very refreshing to see Matt’s stock list, and his videos are fantastic. Well done Matt, for bringing some trust back into 2nd hand cars. 👍

Another great video from the garage Matt. I absolutely love that XKR. Don’t stress too much about the building. It’s you who sell your cars and it is very refreshing to find someone as honest and straightforward as yourself. I would far rather buy a car from an enthusiast like yourself than from some corporate suit in a disinfected showroom. More power to you!

Some decent cars there Matt - the 430d is Mineral Grey metallic. It’s a shame it’s missing the Harman Kardon audio and the 19” alloys. The SL is absolutely stunning - only ever going one way in value, but I’d still enjoy it on a lovely summer’s day, otherwise what’s the point. The Jaaaag is another bargain car too - again I think a future classic and still looks fresh today!

Love these types of videos, should do them a bit more often if you get the chance!

Hey Matt, In the short term there's nothing better than a lick of paint to sort the outside of that building to make it a bit more presentable. Having said that I'm sure you have already considered that option. Probably a silly comment really. Getting back to the cars. That Z4 is a beauty..... I`m in love 😁

Another great video….. who would have thought how interesting a walk around your forecourt would be. Love your frankness.

Love the walk around - don't worry about the building, it's the cars we are interested in.

Hello Matt, I have a Fiat Tipo Lounge, it’s a 5 door Petrol 1.0L supercharger, and I’ve had Honda C-RV, Several Mercs, and I can honestly tell you that, it’s the most reliable, cheap to run and insure car I’ve ever owned. I’m well aware of the old an acronym: Fix It Again Tomorrow, which is true of the fiats my poor dad bought in his day, but these ones above in your forecourt are very reliable, but it’s like any machine, if you wait until the ‘Red Light’ comes on you’ll never be out of trouble. Great videos, I agree with one of your other followers, (KZfaqrs), regarding your cars for the next time, I’d certainly look at your forecourt ANY/EVERY day! Yours truly ross

Some nice stock there Matt 👍. Always hate the process of car dealing in general as there are so many poor dealers around . Very honest review of what you have. Will keep an eye out on your site when I’m looking to trade. You should do an update every couple of months, great vid

Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦 can’t miss your videos Matt!

Love that Jag convertible.

You're obviously doing something right for the business to do so well. Congratulations. Over here the small one-man band car dealers are becoming a thing of the past. Most second-hand dealers now have huge warehouses with cars of similar size arranged in groups and lots of twenty-year-olds monitoring internet sales. I don't mind looking through the big ones when I'm in Brisbane.

As someone who has bought and sold cars before, you have way more integrity with what you do than I did when you fix cars up and I made sure to make cars much better than when I got them you go another level and I had it easy in a dry country of Australia(Sydney), the fact you can make a living doing that is inspiring, I'm addicted to watching all your videos since I found them about 5 or so months ago.

Already scouted out your stock on your website earlier today as I tried to anticipate your next car review video 😂

Your candid commentary regarding your inventory speaks of your character and integrity. Love your style, man. Your videos are something I look forward to. Great content!

Can’t believe your BMW Z4 hasn’t gone it is such a pretty car top up or down, which is rare.

Great Video, an exterior showroom makeover would put the icing on the cake!

Well done for getting the wheels refurbished on so many of your cars. A lot of dealers wouldn't do that!

You need some throw away paper mats to put in the cars mate after the valet to keep carpets pristine.

You are spot on about the Tipo, the ones in Turkey are called Aegea. My first car was a Tipo and the ones we had in Turkey had digital cluster. It’s a shame it’s nothing like those ones the new one.

Hi Matt , finally signed for a RR based on your channel, massive step which I’m looking forward to, get it next Thursday, here’s hoping for an enjoyable ownership, apologies I bottled the RR your had , love your channel always

Would love to see a video on the Peugeot 3008. Be interesting to see more of what it’s like to drive with that high driving position. Sunny weather coming so interior would look good with that glass roof.

Yes I’m Turkish, and I can confirm the Fiat Egea is very popular 1.3 Diesel oh and also the Renault Megan Sedan.

Ever since I bought a Boxter S I have been obsessed with your content, very enjoyable. Keep it up.

07:40 it's true I'm from Turkey the car is called Egea here it's made in Bursa Turkey and we import those cars to you guys that's why it's cheap here so everyone has one but it's mostly used as rentals especially the 1.3 Multijet engine and easy trim is so Popular and with this car we produce the Doblo and The Fiorino/Qubo too all the cheap cars from Fiat is from Turkey

You got plenty of brass Matt - well done 👍👌🚗

Thoroughly enjoyable video. Very therapeutic.

Many moons ago, my cousin was a car salesman. I used to get so envious that he could walk into the forecourt and take whatever he wanted home. You have such a wide range to choose from, you could easily swap cars every day and never be bored

Regarding the E class suspension, might be worth double checking that someone hasn’t fitted “standard” rear springs to a sport, giving the nose down attitude, and excessive rear arch gap. Seen it a few times over the years!! 👍🏻

Thanks for taking the time to do this video Matt, a nice range of vehicles there and loved the cold start on the Jag.

Refreshingly candid! Like it.

You have a great channel, have been watching u from Sweden for a couple of years. Appreciate ur channel alot. Thumbs up to you.

I have picked up my BMW 320i Msport shadow touring today, partly after watching your review and using the car vertical discount, so thank for that and the brilliant videos

Couple of nice cars there, I'm a Jag man, so the XKR caught my eye. I think they're beautiful and on the one hand I want one and on the other I don't. It's because of the 6HP gearbox. I've gone right off those since the one in my XF let go. Also, I'd have the coupe, not the rag top. If I was in the market for a car I'd bite your hand off for the 370Z, such a rare good example.

Just catching up on some past videos. If you are the owner of the garage to refer to your employees as ‘colleagues’ is a lovely trait to see and so respectful. Such honesty. When I’m ready to trade up our 70k mileage 07 tidy Yaris I’ll be in touch! Keep up the good work.

Watching this is like being a kid in a sweet shop!

I’m from wales so I love a leek but your show room celing mate, u remind me of the Eastern Europeans I work with they come here with the cloths on their backs rent a room work hard and a few months later they have nice cloths a really nice Audi etc etc but are still renting a room, in my mind I’m thinking why didn’t you use that money and put a deposit on a house and rent the rooms to your friends then get the car U got that beautiful blue merc gorgeous white Range Rover but your renting a room in a shared house and that shared house/car lot u have at the minute needs more work than the council house you just bought 😢 great content as always buddy hope you can do the deal with the landlord and make it your own

Great video Matt was nice to look round without the 5 hour drive 😅. My wife has a Tipo S-Design in a nice grey, black wheels 1.4 T-Jet. Fantastic car, bigger then any rival and been faultless for 59k miles. Loads of kit, even guided cruise! Very underrated car!

Claim off insurance before buying car! Went to the garage on 4th March to see a Peugeot 207 SW for my partner, was greeted and was allowed to look at the car inside and out and even took for a test drive. As per advert was aware would have new MOT and service. We mentioned the advisors from previous MOT Exhaust manifold heat shield insecure and Front Brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened plus front Brake pad(s) wearing thin. We discussed and was advised any advisories would be sorted, which we were really happy with. We went in the office and left a £200 deposit (paid by bank transfer) We called up midweek to make sure we were still okay to pick up on the Saturday and it was confirmed it was fine, I was asked to make the full payment by Friday (day before collecting) I advised didn't feel comfortable paying before seeing the car again and making sure everything was fine. Was advised was only asked this as they had a customer who struggled to do the money transfer few days before. We turned up on Saturday morning, I went in the office to start the paperwork and payment transfer and my partner went to check the car. After a couple of minutes my partner came in the office and said there was a chip/crack in the windscreen which wasn't there when we saw the car weekend before. The sales man said 'oh well it's only been from here to the garage and back so and we have just spent £300+ for the work to be done on it' He then inform informed us most people have windscreen on the car insurance and claim off that and it's normally £50.00. I went out to check the chip/crack and it was noticeable straight away. We went back in to the office the sale man didn't even want to come out and look at it (seems to me he already knew it was there) again he repeated 'it's only been from here to the garage and back and we have just spent £300+ for the work to be done on it. He mentioned claiming off our insurance again, we decided that we would leave the deal as didn't want to have to make a claim on our insurance on a car we just bought. £3500 might not be alot of money to some people but it is to us. We were happy with the car and the fact they were putting on a fresh MOT and had the advisories sorted but we did not agree to the sale with the chip/crack in the windscreen. Lucky we didn't as we didn't have windscreen cover on our insurance (normally do) so something they said would cost us £50 might have costed us alot more especially if the whole windscreen needed replacing. And for something that happened before we were the owners of the car. After we said we didn't want to proceed the sale the sales mans attitude/deminor changed and he was short/snappy 'we will just put it back up for sale and sort the deposit refund out' that was it and we left. On our way home we got a call said they could knock £50 off the asking price, what it would cost on our insurance for the windscreen. We advised we didn't want to proceed and was told the refund would be sorted on the Monday. I kept checking my bank for the refund on Monday but nothing came through, I called up and was told the person who does the refunds, he hadn't seen and would follow up with them tomorrow. Tuesday I called around lunch time and was told they had heard colleagues speaking about this earlier today and would chase the refund. I still hadn't received my refund after 3pm so called again and was told the person who does refunds had left and they would chase again tomorrow. I asked if there was only one person who does the refunds as had been patient, the person then tried to guilt me with saying they are the ones who had been patient as they paid for the work to be done on the MOT and we didn't go through with the sale. Again I advised the only reason the sale didn't go through was because of the windscreen and wasn't happy to claim off insurance, which you shouldnt have to do when you buy a car used or new! I said if nothing was sorted by the end of the following day I would seek adviced regarding this issue. After 10 minutes got a phone call back to say the money had been transferred back to me. Summary; Was happy at beginning however would stay away from dealership after coldness of staff when sale fell through and issues getting a refund. It was easy for them to take the payment but only certain people that work there can process a refund. If you do buy make sure you check the car before the final transaction and(lucky we didn't pay anymore than the deposit before noticing the issue) no one should buy a car to then be told make a claim on your insurance!

I really like the "I'm not a big fan of this car, but if I would ever buy one it would be this specific one so I'm comfortable having it in my stock" attitude. Have to respect it. Keep up the good work!

I want the SL so bad, and the T55 MSG plates make it stand out, it probbably has the Mercedes leather smell still! :D Great video as usual Matt!

You missed the one car I was really interested in Matt. The Suzuki right in the centre of the forecourt!

Oh boy, take your dream car onto the road already, you deserve the fun!

my favorite video youve done i like seeing your quality used cars at your site matt m8. 😁

Nice video. Interesting stock, I had a Tipo for nearly 4 years and there is nothing wrong with the reliability, probably because the drive train has been around for ever and as you say, there is loads of room I'd like to see a video of the Jogger, simply because there are not many about You're right about the building..... Good video again, Matt

I really enjoyed this, thank you. It would’ve been nice if you could’ve given us at least a guide price for each vehicle, I’m sure that would’ve helped sales as well. Keep up the good work! Cheers, Peter

Love the fact your recycling the xmas tree and keeping tucked away safely ready for this year 🎄🎄

PMSL at Audi A3 description, so funny because true.

let’s be honest if your after a motor we all know where to go!

Really interesting stock and a couple there that I might be interested in myself. The E89 is of particular interest 👌

Thank you for the tour of your showroom and the stock of your cars . I must say you have alot of very good cars there is something to suit all car drivers. I must make a trip to see your business and buy one of your cars Thanks Matt and may 2024 be very successful for you Kevin from Radcliffe

I own a 335D X Drive, a 6 pot 3 litre diesel, probably the same 3 litre Diesel used in that 430D. A powerhouse? Absolutely. Mine pulls like a train.

hi matt! this video has really improved my day! haven’t watched it yet, but just seeing the notification as improved my day! my parents audi broke down (the same one i sent you on instagram) after being at the garage yesterday because they changed the oil pressure sensor. today we travelled up to Truro for the day, and it got stuck in limp mode. so we turned it off, and back on again and it was still in limp mode. it got that bad that it broke down at the side of the road outside Truro and we were there for about an hour before the tow truck came to pick up the car, and dropped it off at the garage to get repaired. Had to walk home which took another hour, so i’ve had a manic day, but this video has improved my rubbish day 😂😂

That was such good fun, thank you Matt! My favourite was the XKR convertible - what a car! I'll trade my L322 in against it. Actually, no. You can have my £500 2003 Golf GTi instead 😆

I wish every car dealer was like High Peak Autos!

Stop worrying about the SL. I have put 120000 miles on mine over 16 years of regular use…. and it still looks like new… leather, steering wheel, pedals, everything. I also love the car and won’t sell it. 😎👍

Matt love all your content but you are a workaholic 😊 maybe a day off on a bank holiday? Appreciate the tour😊

Early birds where you at?

Love Matt's videos, I bought a 3008 allure mk 1 2014 auto, love it and is great on fuel with 42000 miles and full service history 😊

That's cool, Matt. Man, it's cool to see someone real, who has problems like everyone else. You show something very rare nowadays, which is transparency. What I see of people in this field, close to me, who eat chicken and belch caviar, you have no idea. Or rather, I think there is... Keep it up, buddy, transparent.

How's everyone doing today?

Well, it's a tad unusual to hear a car dealer slagging half of his stock off, but if it works, go for it.

Good garage tour..A good mix of stock,my favourite is your silver AMG Mercedes and the blue Land Rover..The inside of the garage is fine and the exterior wouldn’t take much doing to renovate ,could even be capped with UPVc or similar at fairly low cost.

Love having a virtual tour around your stock, especially with your brief honest opinion on each one! Could be a feature every few months!

I always think thatnot using your car to keep the millage down is like not shagging your girlfriend and saving her for the next guy

Love the fact that you love cheap cars Matt

Great video Matt very interesting insight of your stock that bmw z4 2.5 is immaculate I would be interested in that but I live to far away in Cornwall I have a vw Passat cc but now retired I’m only doing short journeys now so a petrol model would make sense keep the great videos coming all the best to you.

1st time I’ve watched channel,really honest down to earth,love the Mercedes SL!

You video has brought back some happy memories. I use to own an E reg Citroen BX 1.7D non turbo. It pushed out about 60hp and went really well. It was great on fuel and I ran it on remould tyres. All the best Andy

Matt as a fellow trader thank you for keeping it real! Love what your doing it keeps a faith for buyers

That 370 with a wrap to cover up the weird design would be a great buy

Great video Matt, nice to get up close to all the cars. Looking forward to seeing you develop the unit, office and forecourt - a must now your viewers are growing and you are becoming more of an icon 😂

Thanks Matt. Used to be in the game free years ago as a salesman. Those days when people bought diesels just because. Today, in the London area, you can’t give them away! Love your presentation, integrity and I keep rooting for your continued success. Who knows? Now that the usual suspects ie remarketing sites are only online and to traders, I might direct folk I know up your neck of the woods to your door!

I got the old tour in my recommended and was wondering what it would look like updated! What a bloody coincidence

You deserve all your success Matt great video as usual, honest, focussed and looking at the cars from both a buyer and sellers perspective.

🎉 NICE SHOW ROOM AND CAR COLLECTION. WISH YOU BEST OF LUCK.

Bloody hell, lovely to spend time with you. Cheers for your time letting us have a look around your garage.......WHEN I'M FLUSH. Anyhow thanks again and every happiness and success to you.

Absolutely brilliant as usual, I like these videos around the show room and the cheaper car buys your average joe can afford, keep up the brilliant work long may it continue!

You're such a well spoken, professional & informative guy. I love your channel :)

Thank you for showing us your garage. I love the Jag.

21:24 Just someone having fun, I reckon he knows exactly how a clutch and gearbox work.

Something very genuine about you! Really do kill the stereotype of a car salesman, Wishing you all the best mate

The most surprising thing about this video? The number of manual cars! Incredible!!!

Great video of the showroom, love the different range of cars , something for everyone lol . Your customers really need to appreciate that you are one of the decent dealers that do things like full engine and gearbox service before putting the cars up for sale, you are the exception not the rule 👍 can’t think of any dealers that would fork out money, time and energy just to keep cars on the road . Keep up the awesome work 👍

well done a very interesting video , your delivery is great i try to watch all your vids so good keep going get the paint can ouy well done

.....you are probably the only person on the planet that could get me to look twice at an automatic Beetle!

A great selection of cars there. Something for everyone really and more more interesting because of it.

You do keep some lovely stock for most people’s budgets.

I only stumbled upon your channel like two days ago.. I must admit that I get petrolhead vibes rather than car salesmen vibes from you :D The way you look at cars is similar to a car nerd, so this is super refreshing. That XKR would be on my list as well, and one day I will get one :), it is hard to find a tidy one I have to say.

The first Z4 is my favourite 😍😍😍 I hope you are storing all the car keys in a very safe place 😉

Absolutely honest and a realist too. Knowshis stuff.

Hi Matt thanks for the tour of your cars. If I had the choice: Showroom- That XKR 😍i would love to go on a long european roadtrip with that car. Also that Defender my parents would love that. Forecourt- Audi A6 or the SQ5. If i was on a budget that Ford Fiesta would be quite nice and practical 5 door. Looking forward to your next video.
