About this dealer
Octane Specialist Cars is a family-run specialist dealership based in Rochdale, focused on carefully selected Volkswagen Transporter and Caddy models.
Founded by Tony and Matt, the business combines more than 30 years of automotive experience with a genuine enthusiasm for the vehicles it sells. The selection includes Transporter panel vans, Kombis, Shuttle models and camper conversions, alongside Volkswagen Caddy vans, with each vehicle individually chosen for stock.
Octane Specialist Cars takes a hands-on approach to buying and selling, with Tony and Matt personally involved throughout the process rather than operating as a larger volume dealership. Based at The Pavillions on Bridgefold Road, the business has developed a distinctive niche around Volkswagen vans and leisure-oriented vehicles.

FAQ
Does BumpyGoat sell the vehicles?
No. BumpyGoat is a marketplace. We show listings from private and professional sellers, but the purchase is always made directly between buyer and seller.
Tip: if you are unsure, ask the seller for more details.
FAQ
What does observed, claimed or verified mean?
Observed means the profile was created from public information. Claimed means the owner has confirmed that the profile belongs to them. Verified means extra checks have been completed, where available, to improve trust.
Tip: if you are unsure, ask the seller for more details.
FAQ
How does the Bumpy Score work?
It is a quick, indicative reading based on listing signals such as history, consistency and published details. It does not replace a mechanical inspection or legal checks.
Tip: if you are unsure, ask the seller for more details.
FAQ
Can I rely on the suggested price context?
We provide context by comparing with similar listings, but the final value still depends on condition, history, location and demand. Use it as a reference, not as an absolute truth.
Tip: if you are unsure, ask the seller for more details.
FAQ
What should I check before paying a deposit?
Check the seller identity, documents and VIN carefully. Avoid paying before seeing the vehicle or without a clear written agreement. If the deal feels rushed, take extra care.
Tip: if you are unsure, ask the seller for more details.
