How to get the best price and an accurate valuation

Do you want to get the best price for your car? Silly question, of course you do. Well, there are a few things you can do to make that happen:

Make sure the details match – The description you give us matters. If it doesn’t match what we see when we come to collect your vehicle, we may have to change the valuation or pull the offer all together. So, be accurate about any dents, scratches or scuffs and make sure the mileage is no more than 500 miles off.
Keep a record – Whether you have a log book with stamps, paper invoices or a digital record, make sure you can prove your car’s service history.
Presentation is key – Make sure any mud and dirt is removed from your car, this just means we are able to give it a proper inspection when we come to collect it.

We like to keep things simple for you. So, to make sure things go as smoothly as possible, keep your description as accurate as you can. If your car’s condition is different, we will either have to change the offer or reject the car. In the event of us giving you a new offer, this will be guaranteed for another 7 days, so you have time to think it over.
