What do I need to sell my car?
To ensure a smooth transaction, you'll need a few key items:
V5 Document (Logbook): This official document is crucial as it verifies your ownership of the car.
Two Sets of Keys: Providing both sets of keys can significantly enhance the appeal of your offer, as it assures potential buyers that they won't need to invest in new keys.
Service History: Demonstrating a full service history not only proves your car has been well maintained, it also can increase the selling price by showing potential issues have been addressed.
Common questions when it comes to selling your car
Typically, you need your V5 document, a valid MOT certificate, and proof of service history.
Valuations assume your car is in good condition without significant damage or mechanical issues.
The collection process is straightforward. After your sale is confirmed, a collection appointment will be arranged at a time that suits you. A professional will come to your home, review the car, and complete the necessary paperwork before taking the car away. This service is designed to be as convenient and hassle-free as possible.
We buy a wide range of vehicles, but there are exceptions. We typically do not purchase cars that are non-running, have significant structural damage, or those that are deemed total losses by insurance companies. It's best to provide accurate information about your car's condition for a proper valuation.
Payment is typically processed on the same day the car is collected. Once all documents are verified and the car is checked, payment will be transferred to your bank account using a secure method. This ensures that you receive your funds promptly without any unnecessary delays.
Your car's valuation is valid for a certain period, typically around 7 days from the date it was provided. This period allows you enough time to consider the offer and make a decision without feeling rushed.
Yes, you can sell your car with a private registration. However, if you wish to keep the registration, you will need to transfer it before the sale. If you decide to sell the car with its registration, it will be transferred along with the vehicle to the new owner.
Yes, it's essential to inform the DVLA immediately after you sell your car. This can be done online, and it's important to ensure that you're no longer legally responsible for the vehicle once it has been sold.
When you sell your car, the car tax cannot be transferred to the new owner and will be canceled. You will receive a refund for any full months left on your tax. Similarly, you should cancel or transfer your insurance once the car is sold to ensure you are not paying for a vehicle you no longer own.
Yes, you can sell a car with a partial MOT history, but having a complete history can increase the value of your car. It's recommended to provide as much documentation as possible to facilitate a smoother transaction and potentially better offers.
The number of previous owners can affect a car's resale value. Typically, cars with fewer owners are perceived as more desirable, potentially leading to higher offers. However, the overall condition and maintenance history of the car are also crucial factors.
Selling a car with outstanding finance is possible, but the finance must be settled as part of the sale process. Usually, the amount owed can be paid off from the sale proceeds, with any remainder going to you. Transparency about any outstanding finance with potential buyers is key.
