DO YOU BUY IMPORTS?

Yes, we buy imported cars -
There are two types of import; "parallel" imports are cars purchased within the EU, which may have minor differences to that of a UK car or grey imports - purchased outside the EU, these cars require a different approach to valuation. Please specify the type of import when you contact us (details are specified on the V5 Registration document).
We buy -

Drive cars, People Carriers, 7 Seaters…

I DO NOT HAVE A V5 (LOGBOOK) – WILL YOU BUY MY CAR?

We must have the V5 Registration document (logbook) to be able to buy your car. If you have lost it, but the car is registered in your name, DVLA have an express service available, or you can complete and return a V62 form - obtainable from the post office or online from: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Diol1/DoItOnline/DG_4017825.

I HAVE OUTSTANDING FINANCE, I NEED TO SELL MY CAR NOW, CAN I SELL IT?

Yes you can sell your car but the balance must be settled.
You have two options;

  • You can settle the outstanding balance directly with your finance company yourself - we will require written confirmation from them that they have received full, cleared payment when we collect your car
  • We can settle the finance for you, we will simply deduct the outstanding amount from the valuation of your car and pay it on your behalf (data protection laws require that you obtain the settlement figure) We need written confirmation from your finance company of the balance due.

NB - If you owe more than the selling price of your car, you will need to pay the balance prior to us collecting it. We will need written confirmation from your finance company when we collect your car. Alternatively you can pay us the difference in the form of a Bankers draft made payable to the finance company.
