You don't have to live in the city to buy your car well. If you are in Vila-real, Borriana (Burriana), Onda, Almassora or Benicàssim, General Car's is a used-car dealer just a few minutes away, at Calle Italia 198 in Castelló de la Plana. In this guide we explain how to reach us from each town, which car suits your day-to-day driving, what stock we have right now, and how to reserve and test-drive it without any hassle. And if you would rather not travel, we bring the car to you: free home delivery across the whole area.
How to reach General Car's from each town (and free home delivery)
We are very central to the whole Plana area, so from most of the surrounding towns you get here in under twenty minutes. These are the easiest routes:
| From | Usual route | Approx. distance |
|---|---|---|
| Vila-real | N-340 / CV-20 towards Castelló | ~8 km · 12 min |
| Almassora | N-340 / CV-185, very direct | ~5 km · 8 min |
| Borriana (Burriana) | CV-18 towards Castelló | ~11 km · 15 min |
| Benicàssim | N-340 or AP-7 / CS-22 | ~13 km · 15 min |
| Onda | CV-10 and CV-20 | ~22 km · 25 min |
Our showroom has easy parking and every car on display, so you can come and see and test-drive them in person the same day. And if it suits you better not to travel, we offer free home delivery in Vila-real, Almassora, Borriana, Benicàssim and Onda: we prepare the car inspected, with the paperwork in order, and bring it to your door. Just write to us from the contact page and tell us your town.
Which car suits your journey
The best car is not the most expensive or the biggest one, but the one that fits how you drive every day. Two very different profiles live side by side across the Plana, and for each there is a smarter choice.
If your life is city driving and short trips (dropping the kids at school in Vila-real, doing the shopping in Almassora, getting around the centre of Borriana), what you want is a nimble car, easy to park and cheap to run. Here a small hatchback or a compact petrol SUV performs beautifully: modest fuel use on short trips, without the problems that modern diesels give when they almost never see the open road. Prioritising low mileage and simple servicing will save you money in the long run.
If, on the other hand, you cover miles every day on the N-340 or the AP-7 (commuting between Castellón and Valencia, or heading up to Onda and the inland area), the thinking changes. For a lot of motorway miles, a well-kept diesel or a hybrid is still the most cost-effective option on fuel and comfort, with a relaxed driving position for long trips. In that case it is worth studying the service history closely and checking that the mileage is consistent. If in doubt, our guide on what to check before buying a used car explains it step by step, and Carmen, our virtual assistant, can recommend specific models from the catalogue based on your journey.
Stock available now: ~150 inspected cars, with warranty and VAT included
At General Car's we keep around 150 used cars on display, selected one by one and inspected before going on sale. There are hatchbacks, estates, SUVs and small runabouts from different brands and budgets, so you can genuinely compare rather than settle for the first one you see.
Every car in the catalogue comes with:
- A mechanical inspection before delivery and a valid ITV (roadworthiness test).
- A 1-year legal warranty and, on many models, extended cover on the engine and gearbox.
- A verified history and the vehicle's DGT report.
- An invoice with VAT included and management of the change of ownership.
On payment we are straight with you: for the cars that qualify we offer bank financing of up to 96 months, always subject to the lender's approval, and it applies mainly to the newer cars (generally up to about 11 or 12 years old). Older cars are sold in cash or by bank transfer, because banks do not usually finance them. If you want to understand the instalments properly, see our guide on used-car financing. And to see what is available today, browse the car catalogue.
How to reserve and test-drive the car
Reserving is simple and commits you to nothing more than coming to see the car at your own pace. These are the steps:
- Choose the car in the catalogue, or ask Carmen for the price, mileage and extras at any hour, by text or by voice.
- Reserve it by WhatsApp or from the contact page. We agree a deposit and hold it for you, so no one takes it while you decide.
- Test-drive it in person at our showroom on Calle Italia 198, or ask us for home delivery if you are in Vila-real, Borriana, Onda, Almassora or Benicàssim.
- Sign with peace of mind: we go through the warranty, the DGT report and the conditions together before anything else. We handle the change of ownership for you.
