Otta's take on Cazoo

Theo Margolius headshot

Theo Margolius

COO of Otta

Through the Cazoo platform customers are able to buy, finance or rent a used car online and have it delivered to their door within 48 hours. This is a big step change vs. other used car websites, where you often still have to travel 25+ miles to see and pick up your new car.

The UK used car market is worth over £50 billion per annum, so the potential for Cazoo is large. Cazoo argues the market will grow even more when it goes through digital transformation, which the company wants to drive.

While the market is large, there are a lot of established players, most notably Auto Trader. There are also new, well-financed startups like Heycar (backed by VW and Daimler), so the product will need to be a lot better to cut through the noise.

The CEO is a very experienced entrepreneur and used to taking on large incumbents, which should stand him in good stead. Alex introduced Zoopla to the market when Rightmove had a monopoly and managed to create a very successful company.
