The Peter Cooper Motor Group provides a comprehensive "motoring lifecycle" service that carries drivers from their first used car to their ultimate prestige model.
By offering a diverse range of brands, including Volkswagen, Kia,Jaecoo,Omoda, XPeng and Jeep, alongside specialised Prestige and Modification divisions, the group ensures that every milestone is backed by the same "PETER" excellence framework of trust and reliability established in 1981.
Buying a car is rarely a one-off event; it’s a journey that spans decades. For most families in Hampshire and West Sussex, that journey starts at "Cooper’s Roundabout."
We’ve seen teenagers pick up their first keys at our Hedge End dealership, only to return years later to trade in their family SUV for a weekend convertible at our Prestige Cars site in West End.
Choosing a lifelong partner means your service history, your preferences, and your trust are all kept under one roof. We aren't just selling you a vehicle; we’re managing your motoring future.
"We often meet three generations of the same family in our showrooms on a Saturday," says a Senior Consultant at our Shirley dealership. "That doesn't happen by accident; it happens because we treat the first-car buyer with the same respect as the dream-car collector."
Motoring is a marathon, not a sprint. To understand why a trusted relationship is vital, look at the numbers:
Industry data from the RAC Foundation indicates that the average car in the UK is now nearly 9 years and 10 months), the oldest it has ever been.
This means reliability and a trusted service partner are more critical than ever as vehicles stay on the road longer.
A mid-year 2025 report from LexisNexis® Risk Solutions shows that vehicle brand loyalty has reached 53.3%.
Drivers are increasingly returning to the names they trust, valuing the "buying experience" and dealership relationship over purely transactional online prices.
At The Peter Cooper Motor Group, we support these nine "life stages" of car ownership by ensuring we always have the right stock at the right time.
Lifecycle Stage | Typical Vehicle Choice | The Peter Cooper Advantage |
The "First Keys" | Used VW Polo / Kia Picanto | Safety-first, insurance-friendly, HPI checked. |
The "Career Starter" | VW Golf / Kia Ceed | Reliable, professional, and efficient for the M27 commute. |
The "Family Expansion" | Kia Sportage / VW Tiguan | Space, safety tech, and long-term warranties. |
The "Adventure Phase" | Jeep Wrangler / Jeep Avenger | Rugged capability for the South Coast and beyond. |
The "Dream Reward" | Porsche 911 / BMW M-Series | Hand-selected luxury via our Prestige Cars sites. |
One of the unique benefits of the Peter Cooper Motor Group is our "brand-agnostic" approach to excellence.
While we are heritage Volkswagen and now also Kia specialists, our Prestige Cars by Peter Cooper showrooms in West End and Horsham cater to those looking for something truly special.
You might start your journey with a £6,000 used hatchback, but as your life evolves, so can your car.
Our All Makes Bosch Service Centres mean we can look after your BMW, Audi, or Mercedes with the same factory-level precision we apply to our franchises.
And when you're ready for that dream car, our Modifications team can add the bespoke finishes, from ceramic coatings to performance upgrades,that make a vehicle truly yours.
The Peter Cooper Motor Group operates as a "one-stop-shop" by integrating sales, all-makes servicing, leasing, paint and body repair, and performance modifications into a single trusted network.
This ecosystem allows Hampshire and West Sussex drivers to manage every aspect of their vehicle’s life cycle without needing to find new providers, ensuring consistency in quality and a consolidated vehicle history.
In the traditional motoring model, a driver might buy a car at one dealership, get it serviced at a local garage, and take it to a third-party body shop for repairs.
This fragmented approach often leads to "lost" service history and varying levels of quality.
From the day you pass your test to the day you treat yourself to that performance car you’ve always wanted, The Peter Cooper Motor Group is your navigator.
We don't just see a sale; we see a 40-year relationship. Visit us at Cooper’s Roundabout or any of our nine locations and start a journey that lasts a lifetime.
