How do I know BigWantsYourCar.com is a trustworthy company?

We’re all about keeping things simple and honest. You won’t find any hidden fees or unfair offers here – just straightforward, fair deals from a team you can trust. But don’t just take it from us, our happy customers from Manchester and beyond say it all. Visit our Trustpilot page, where we proudly hold an ‘Excellent’ rating.

What does the inspection process involve?

Don’t worry – we keep things simple! We’ll go through a standard checklist to make sure your car matches the details you provided. This includes a quick diagnostics check with an OBD reader and a short test drive to confirm everything’s running smoothly before we go ahead with the handover.

What payment methods do you offer?

Once you’ve confirmed the sale and we’ve completed the final appraisal, we’ll make it official! Payment goes directly to your bank account through a secure NatWest payment link.

We’ll send that link to your email right after the appraisal, so you can confirm it’s in your bank account before our driver leaves with your car.

How do you determine the value of a car?

We base your car’s value on live market data, which means valuations can change daily. To lock in your best offer, send us a few photos so we can give you a guaranteed valuation that’s fixed for 7 days. This way, you have time to think things over without missing out on an unbeatable offer!

Are there any types of vehicles you do not purchase?

Our buying preferences are always evolving, but just to give you a heads up, we’re not currently looking for commercial vehicles like taxis, vans, trucks, private hire vehicles, and pickups.

We also aren’t buying cars with a damage category status, so that means no Cat A, Cat B, Cat S, or Cat N cars.

The best way to find out if your car is for us is to complete a quick valuation, right here on our website!

Are there any fees or charges I should be aware of?

Nope! Unlike others, we don’t charge any fees when you sell your car to us – it’s completely free from start to finish!
