Join the thousands of schools and organisations enjoying a used minibus from Rivervale.
Used Minibuses For Sale
We have access to a wide range of great quality, ex-school lease minibuses that we have known and maintained from new.
Given the demand in the market currently, we often sell most of our minibuses before they even reach the website, so if you are looking for something specific then please call us on 01869 253744 to discuss your requirements and we can always add you to our stock alerts, so you don't miss out!
We appreciate that buying a used minibus is a big decision and it is not always possible for our customers to physically see a vehicle before they decide to purchase it, so we do all we can to help you make that decision by including 12 month's MOT and full service, a 12 month RAC warranty and break down cover as standard on all our used vehicles.

- Trading Standards approved 82-point RAC check on all vehicles

- 12 months RAC breakdown
- Delivery and your school branding, logo and livery
- Part exchange your old vehicle if possible
- Reduced insurance premiums*

Want to sell your minibus?
Looking to sell your old minibus? Rivervale will purchase your old minibus even if you are not looking to replace it, or we can discuss a part-exchange deal. Simply tell us what you have for sale by completing the form on our 'Sell your Minibus' page and we will do the rest.
Selling you old school minibus to Rivervale means you won't have to deal with any after-sale complaints or issues, and you will get a fair valuation to put toward a new vehicle.
Hire Purchase
Rivervale's hire purchase option for minibuses offers a practical solution for schools and organisations aiming to own their vehicles after a fixed term. This cost-effective approach allows for the immediate use of a minibus without the hefty initial expense of buying outright, making it ideal for budget-conscious entities.
What's the difference?
Unlike our 12-month rental, the hire purchase arrangement requires you to manage the vehicle's maintenance and servicing. This option suits those who prefer long-term investment over short-term rental and seek asset ownership post-contract. With flexible terms and customisable payment plans, hire purchase is an excellent choice for organisations that value financial flexibility and asset acquisition.
Can't find what you're after?
Finding a used minibus for sale is increasingly difficult, due to the shortage of new vehicles on the market. Use our minibus finder service to let us know what you are looking for and we will let you know when we find it. No fees, deposit or obligation.
