How do you calculate how much my car is worth?
Whether you are simply selling your current vehicle or you are looking to part exchange, we understand that receiving a fair and competitive price is essential. That is why our team of friendly and experienced buyers use live market appraisals to value your car. When assessing your vehicle, we consider several factors, including age, mileage, and condition.
On inspecting my vehicle, will your price offer change?
Our mission is to offer you the right valuation first time, based on the information you provide us. If we give an estimate in advance of inspecting your vehicle, we will confirm the details you provided. These will include condition, mileage, service history and previous owners. We will make the following assumptions:
- It has no damage, including interior or mechanical.
- It hasn’t ever been subject to an insurance write off or been accident damaged.
- It has two sets of keys.
Our price offer will only change if we think it is affected by the vehicle’s condition or history.
What if my car is damaged, will you still buy it?
Yes, but this is subject to the severity of the damage. Valuations may alter if the damage has been miss-described or missed altogether.
How do I settle the outstanding finance against my car?
We are happy to buy your car if you have outstanding finance; however, you will need to request a settlement figure in writing. We will arrange settling the agreement at the point of purchase.
