McCarthy Cars is an independent used car dealership with sites based in Croydon. We are a family run business and were established in 1973 by Mr Jim McCarthy. Jim is still highly involved in the business but McCarthy Cars is now managed, on a day to day basis, by his eldest son, James, who also oversees operations at the main Croydon site. McCarthy Cars' other site is run by James' brothers, Jonathan and Robert.
