New website makes the green car trade easier than ever before

With a strap line as enticing as ‘Greener than a solar powered tree house’ the new EcoForecourt.com online service is certainly setting out its stall as a forward-thinking greener introduction to the automotive world.

EcoForecourt.com is the brainchild of founder and self confessed car addict James Walker and was created to make the process of buying and selling eco friendly cars easier.

Boasting some unique features, EcoForecourt.com is the first of its kind to offer a CO2 filter, which means that all cars have a CO2 rating of 130g/km or under, commanding just £90 as the maximum amount of road tax you will pay for the year.

All cars can be categorically classed as ‘green’ as they are kept in emissions bands A to D which by the Governments’ criteria are labeled as Green cars. 

The service has also joined forces with the DVLA to ease the time-consuming stress of filling in forms about any car, with EcoForecourt.com this is done for you and if you’re not sure if your car has green enough credentials then a free service, operated by simply adding your number plate into a search, will tell you all that as well. This is a huge bonus for dealerships in particular who may be listing multiple cars.

Mr Walker said: “The company was born from years of reading technical information, test drives and in-depth reviews that started to gather pace talking about the crack-down on CO2 emissions and the eco credentials of cars.

“I told myself at that point that if anybody was going to launch a website specialising in these eco-friendly cars then that person was going to be me.

“EcoForecourt has already amassed hundreds of cars for its stock in just a few weeks, which is testament to the markets perception of eco friendly cars.”

The main function of EcoForecourt is for people to find the experience of buying a green car easier than it has been in the past. They promise an informative approach, with as much help as needed to get a car that suits you best. The strict emissions policy also means that many cars offered to you via the website have a ZERO road tax requirement and can dodge the notorious London congestion charge.

Mr Walker added: “We want to be a personable service. We don’t allocate job numbers and pass you around a call centre. You will get to know us and our names and we will know yours and that’s how we prefer to operate.

“EcoForecourt is here to make life easier, so if you need us or want to ask questions, then all you have to do is get in touch.”
