About Us
Welcome to Mark Wilson’s Better Used Cars: 60+ Years of Service!
Our History
Our history in the field of Automotive Customer Service goes back to 1961 when Al Wilson opened his Automotive Service Centre in Guelph, Ontario. His son Mark eventually took over and focused on selling quality certified used vehicles as Mark Wilson’s Better Used Cars. People liked what we were doing! Wilsons’ reputation for honesty, quality, and fair prices paved the way for us to open a second location and then a third, within a few short years. Thanks to our loyal customers and sound business practices we continued to grow and become not only Ontario’s Largest Used Car Super Center but Canada’s!
As the largest used car dealership in Canada and a member of the Auto Canada Dealer group with its 72 dealership locations in Canada with a network of 8000+ Used Vehicles, Mark Wilsons BETTER Used Cars is your number-one single destination for your next pre-owned CAR, TRUCK, VAN or SUV in Ontario. We take great care in ensuring your better used vehicle not only meets but far exceeds your expectations in our 650 + inventory Super Center. We stand out from the crowd by setting the bar far above the competition in quality and value. Those are two key elements and defining characteristics that you will find in our family-run store! and every one of Auto Canada’s 72 Dealerships across Canada!
We’re proud of our history, excited about our future, and we’d love to have you come be a part of that!
