Vehicle Conditions We Accept
Running Vehicles
We purchase running cars and vans regardless of age, mileage, or fuel type. Whether you are selling a nearly new model with low mileage or an older vehicle with 150,000 miles on the clock, we will make you a fair offer. Our service covers petrol, diesel, hybrid, and electric vehicles.
Accident Damage
Accident-damaged vehicles are welcomed, no matter the severity or location of the damage. Front-end collisions, rear impacts, and side damage are all assessed fairly, and we collect the vehicle even if it is not roadworthy. You do not need to arrange repairs before selling.
Mechanical Failures
Engine problems, gearbox failures, and electrical faults can make a vehicle expensive to repair and difficult to sell privately. We buy cars and vans with mechanical issues of any kind, including timing belt failures, seized engines, clutch problems, and faulty electronics.
MOT Failures
If your vehicle has failed its MOT or the certificate has expired, we will still make you an offer. Whether the failure is due to minor advisories or serious structural faults, you can sell the vehicle as-is without paying for repairs or a retest. We collect MOT-failed vehicles nationwide.
Insurance Write-Offs
We buy Category S and Category N insurance write-offs, taking care of all the necessary documentation and DVLA notification. Cat S vehicles have sustained structural damage, while Cat N vehicles have non-structural damage such as cosmetic or electrical issues. Both categories are eligible for a cash offer.
High-Mileage Vehicles
High-mileage cars and vans, including those with over 200,000 miles, are often difficult to sell through traditional channels. We regularly purchase ex-fleet, ex-taxi, and commercial vehicles with extensive use. Mileage alone does not disqualify a vehicle from receiving a competitive offer.
ULEZ Non-Compliant Vehicles
If your vehicle does not meet Ultra Low Emission Zone standards and you are facing daily charges in London or other clean air zones, we offer a straightforward alternative. Non-compliant petrol and diesel vehicles are purchased for cash, with free collection at a time that suits you. Learn more on our how it works page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you buy cars older than 15 years?
Yes, we buy vehicles of any age. As long as you are the registered keeper and can provide proof of ownership, we will assess the vehicle and make a fair cash offer. Older vehicles are often purchased for parts, export, or restoration, so even cars that are no longer economical to run still have value.
What is the minimum value you will buy?
There is no minimum value threshold. We make offers on all types of vehicles, from high-value prestige models to end-of-life cars. If a vehicle has scrap value only, we will still collect it free of charge and provide same-day payment.
Do you buy electric and hybrid vehicles?
Yes, we purchase electric and hybrid vehicles of all makes and models, including fully electric cars, plug-in hybrids, and self-charging hybrids. Whether your EV is in perfect working order or has battery degradation or charging faults, we provide a fair valuation. Visit our electric car buying page for more details.
Do you buy fleet vehicles or multiple cars?
Yes, we regularly purchase fleet vehicles, company cars, and multiple vehicles from businesses and private sellers. If you are disposing of several cars or vans at once, contact us via our quote form with details of the vehicles, and we will provide a tailored service. We also buy ex-rental, ex-lease, and commercial vans.
