Over the past thirty years Metro Car Sales has built up a reputation as one of the top used car dealers in Pietermaritzburg. The company forms part of the Metro Group, which was formed 32 years ago and is owned and managed by brothers Baboo and Ossy Essa.

Metro Car Sales was founded in the heart of the central business district of Allandale at 22 Failsworth Road. For the past eighteen years, Metro Car Sales at 1 Boshoff Street has been distinguished by its modern showroom with 24 hour viewing facilities - seven days a week. Metro Car Sales is highly regarded by all major banks, which is testimony to their credibility and reliability, and pride themselves on being able to arrange finance easily for the vehicles they sell.

The personal attention and importance attributed to every deal is a Metro trade mark. Their high standards are reflected in their excellent sales figures which total more than 30000 vehicles sold in the past 30 years. Some customers have come back for their fourth or fifth vehicle which is proof of Metro's superb service and word of mouth advertising. The service does not stop with the sale, Metro is always looking for innovative ways to improve their deals such as the "R500.00 FREE PETROL and TWO YEAR MBI WARRANTY" as well as the Christmas 15 Free Gifts promotion with every vehicle purchased.

The most outstanding event to be staged by the Metro team was held in 1996, when Metro played the proud sponsor of a brand new VW Golf Chico in a give-away promotion. In essence winning is all part of the game and on the 30th November 1996, an unbelieving local Copesville resident, Dawood Suleman was declared the winner of the VW Golf Chico Give-Away.
