Cazoo is a UK-based online automotive marketplace originally launched in December 2019 by Alex Chesterman to simplify the used‑car buying experience. Instead of listing dealer stock, Cazoo owns and reconditions vehicles at a 55‑acre Midlands facility, conducts 150‑point inspections, and offers fixed pricing, free delivery within 72 hours, a seven‑day money‑back guarantee, a 90‑day warranty, and RAC roadside assistance.

After rapid expansion, including a 2021 NYSE listing and sports sponsorship deals, the company shifted in early 2024 from direct retail to a marketplace model—partnering with over 5,000 dealers and featuring more than 200,000 listings—to leverage its brand and tech platform. Cazoo was acquired by MOTORS in 2025.
