Rolls Auto Sales is a family-owned used car dealership on Frankford Ave in Mayfair, Northeast Philadelphia. We opened here in 2002 and never moved. Same street, same way of doing business. The lot holds 140+ inspected vehicles today, we carry a 4.9 rating across more than 2,400 Google customer reviews, and we operate as a CARFAX Advantage Dealer, so you can pull the history on any car we sell.
Our Story
It started in 2002 with a small lot at Frankford and Vista. Two dozen cars, one phone line, and buyers who showed up because a neighbor sent them. Word of mouth was the only advertising we had, and it set the bar: disappoint one customer and the whole block hears about it.
That corner eventually got too small, and we moved north to Frankford and Magee. Today we occupy both sides of the street, 6550 and 6547 Frankford Ave. Square footage isn’t the achievement. Plenty of dealerships have opened and closed across Northeast Philadelphia over those years, and we’re still here because people come back for a second car, then a third, then with their grown kids for a first.
Why Buy From Rolls Auto Sales
We’re an independent dealer. No single brand or factory price sheet decides what goes on our lot. We pick the cars ourselves and answer for every one of them in a neighborhood that has known us for more than 2 decades.
Inventory
At any given moment the lot carries 140+ vehicles across roughly twenty-eight makes, from Nissan, Kia, Hyundai and Toyota to BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover and Tesla. Most of it falls between model years 2020 and 2024, with 40,000 to 100,000 miles on the odometer.
- SUVs and crossovers, our largest segment at around 90 vehicles: Jeep Grand Cherokee and Compass, Nissan Rogue, BMW X3 and X5, Land Rover Discovery
- Sedans, roughly twenty-five options ranging from the Nissan Altima to the Audi A6
- Trucks and work vehicles: Ram 1500, GMC Sierra, Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado
- Minivans for bigger families: Kia Carnival, Chrysler Pacifica
- Hybrids and EVs, about one in four vehicles on the lot
Prices start at $12,000 and run to $50,000, though most of what we stock sits in the $20,000 to $30,000 range. The full used car inventory with photos, VINs and specs is on our site, and it turns over constantly.
Financing
Not everyone who needs a car has a credit history to show for it. We work with every profile: strong scores, scores wrecked by a divorce or a stack of medical bills, and no score at all for buyers in their early twenties. A 500 to 550 score puts you in subprime territory, which makes the lender conversation harder without ending it.
Here’s what lenders actually weigh. Steady income comes first, and the working benchmark is monthly income at roughly three times the payment. Then the down payment: on a weak score, expect 10 to 15 percent, or $1,000 at minimum.
Pre-qualification through Capital One runs online and won’t touch your score, and our payment calculator gives you a real range before you drive over. Our financing options page has the specifics.
A trade-in solves the down payment problem when cash is tight. A preliminary estimate takes a couple of minutes, so value your trade online and we’ll finalize the number once we look the car over.
Vehicle Quality
Every vehicle gets inspected before it reaches the lot: brakes, suspension, electrical, tire condition and any evidence of body repair. Whatever needs attention gets handled before the car goes up for sale.
As a CARFAX Advantage Dealer, we put the history in front of you on every vehicle: reported accidents, number of owners, service records and odometer discrepancies. Open the report before the test drive. It sharpens the questions you ask on the lot.
Our own service center is unusual for an independent dealer. Oil changes, tire work, transmission service and PA state inspection all happen at the address where you bought the car. Extended warranty coverage runs up to five years.
Serving Philadelphia and Beyond
We serve Philadelphia and the surrounding areas. Close in, that’s Mayfair, Tacony, Holmesburg, Wissinoming and Frankford, ten minutes up Frankford Ave. Further out, Rhawnhurst, Bustleton and Somerton. Past the city line, buyers drive in from Bucks, Montgomery and Delaware counties and South Jersey.
We know what these roads do to a car. Road salt from December through March, potholes on Roosevelt Blvd after every winter, rush hour on I-95 and parallel parking on narrow Northeast Philly streets. That shapes what we buy for the lot and what we look at during inspection.
