What’s the safest way to sell a car in Stoke-on-Trent?

When’s the best time to sell a car?

It’s best to sell your car when something shifts in your lifestyle, like a big change in your commute or even a new addition to the family. Or, let’s be honest – maybe you just fancy an upgrade!

What car conditions do you accept?

Aside from category cars or those with extensive damage, we’re happy to take cars in almost any condition! As long as you’re honest about the car’s condition, we can still make an offer… even if it’s got a few dings and scrapes!

How long does it take to sell my car?

The whole process is super quick! From getting your offer to receiving your payment, it usually takes just 24-48 hours. Once you accept our offer, we’ll arrange a free collection in Stoke-on-Trent, and the money will be transferred to your bank shortly after we pick up the car.

What if my car’s condition doesn’t match what I described?

If there’s a difference between what you described and the actual condition, we’ll review the offer after inspecting the car. But don’t worry – as long as you’re honest when you describe the condition, we won’t change or take back the offer!

What happens once I accept your offer?

Once you accept our offer, we’ll set up a free collection in Stoke-on-Trent at a time that works best for you. When our driver arrives, they’ll give you a call and a knock on the door to let you know they’re there. They’ll do a quick check to make sure the car matches the description, and if everything looks good, we’ll send a secure NatWest payment link to your email – usually within 30 minutes.

As soon as you’ve confirmed the money’s in your account, we’ll be on our way with the car!

If you’d rather drop off the car yourself, no problem! We’ll still make sure the money is in your account before you head out.

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!
