Canada Drives made the process of purchasing my vehicle SO incredibly easy. After the application, I received a text message about 15 minutes later letting me know that I was approved. They found the best interest rate for me, approved the vehicle I chose, emailed me all of the paperwork and delivered the vehicle less than 48 hours later. The insurance process was just as seamless and was finished in about 10 minutes, over the phone, an hour before the vehicle arrived in my driveway. Canada Drives completes their own inspection of the vehicle however, I paid to have one done privately after the

The whole purchase experience was great. Everything was simple and fast. We found the car online at night and did the credit application right away and got approved the next morning, could even get the car delivered the following day. They were great and helpful when we had questions. They also have the insurance dealt with on the phone with us prior delivery, we really did not need to leave the house. I would buy from Canada Drives again and I would definitely recommend Canada Drives to family and friends.

Totally impressed by Canada Drives! I order my Mini clubman 8pm online the night before and it was delivered to my door 11am the next morning! The staff were professional and got my insurance and car plate sorted first thing in the morning to ensure they can deliver my car as promised the next morning. The car was exactly as shown in pictures on their website.

Easiest and fastest purchase to date. Everything was done by email after application was submitted (within 24 hours). I called a couple of times just to make sure the purchase didn't include the taxes (delivered to a reserve address and submitted my CIS). The scrapes on the pictures weren't nearly as visible once it arrived and I'm glad they took pictures of each little one just so we know what to expect.

I'd like to say THANK you CanadaDrive for every thing! The whole process was easy, fast and super convenient. Here are some reasons why I am more than happy about my recent experience:
1- They have a great inventory and I can say they are very selective about their cars. Not to mention prices are quiet competitive.
2- Their business model is based on transparency & trust. Very clear photos about the condition of the car, their inspection report & up-to-date Carfax report. No hidden fees like "Documentation" etc.
3- Financing is easy. Some clicks and uploading required document. Done! Within

I found myself without a way to work when my 17 year old car died and I didnt have the greatest credit score. I was amazed at the ease and selection of vehicles customized within my budget. The process was quick and the car was actually delivered right to my door as promised with all the paperwork and insurance done via email and phone. I honestly kept thinking it was too good to be true I highly recommend Canada Drives, their service is top notch and they follow through quickly and efficiently. Truly a company that goes above and beyond.
