You get a free valuation, a figure held for 7 days, free collection and the money before we drive off.

Why are you selling it?
The kind of older cars we buy
Older everyday cars and high-mileage runarounds, whatever the age: send us yours for a free valuation.
Collected from the kerb
The driveway, the garage or the street where the car has sat for months.
No charges
We do not take anything off for collection or admin.
Money that day
Bank transfer while we are still at your door.
Take a week
Talk it over with the family. The figure holds for seven days.
Why an older car is worth sending our way
Age is not the whole story
We price on what the car is still good for, not just the year on the logbook.
ULEZ sorted
Many diesels before 2006 and petrols before 2006 fail ULEZ. We buy them and fetch them, so you never drive into the zone.
MOT run out?
A failed MOT, an expired one or a SORN car is bought as it stands.
Six figures on the clock
150,000, 200,000 or beyond. Honest high-mileage cars still sell on.
Gentle with family cars
Clearing a parent's or relative's car? We keep it simple and treat it with care.
Ask before you scrap
Plenty of older cars fetch more than scrap money. Get our figure first.
Fetched from the kerb
Driveways, garages and the street outside, anywhere in the UK, free.
Money in your account first
The transfer goes through while we are still there.
Selling an older car in three steps
Tell us about it
Pop in the reg and miles, or send a few WhatsApp photos of the car as it is now.
Think it over
You get a figure for the car and seven days to decide, with no chasing.
We fetch it, you get paid
Pick a day. We arrive, transfer the money, then drive or load the car.
Is your older car worth selling?
Most of the time, yes. These are the things that lift the price of an older car.
Make and model
Some older models stay in demand for years.
MOT
A long ticket helps. None at all is fine.
ULEZ and Clean Air Zones
Non-compliant cars still have buyers.
Rust and wear
Bodywork, rust, cabin and tyres.
Miles and paperwork trail
High readings are fine. Receipts help.
Logbook
V5C in your name, or executor papers.

Older car questions
Is any car too old?
No. Ten-year-old runarounds and cars from the 1980s and 1990s are all bought.
It fails ULEZ. Can I still sell it?
Yes. These cars can still be sold and driven outside the zones, and we collect free so it never has to enter a charging area.
It failed its MOT. Is it worth anything?
Usually. Tell us the failure items and we will value it as it stands.
Should I just scrap it?
Often that leaves money behind. Get a valuation first, as many older cars beat scrap value.
I am selling a relative’s car. What paperwork is needed?
The V5C, and if the keeper has died, the papers showing you are executor or administrator. We can talk you through it.
Is a missing service history a problem?
No.
Will you take a car that does not run?
Yes, collected free on a recovery truck.
How is payment made?
Bank transfer, sent while we are with you.
Do you have set prices?
No. Every older car is priced on its own merits.
Do you buy classics?
Yes, modern classics and older collectables too.
