Your car will be valued through multiple factors, such as your vehicle's age, mileage, number of owners, specifications and model. We will also rank your car's condition to determine the price of your vehicle. This could be if there is any damage to the paintwork of your vehicle, and whether we need to do any work on the vehicle so it's working perfectly.

Several factors can negatively affect your car's value. These include the age, mileage, service history, market demand, fuel type, personalised or modifications, number of owners and accident history.
Factors that could help increase the value of your car could be certain accessories that upgrades your seats or sound system, if your car is up to date with technology upgrades, if you have a popular exterior colour and getting a regular service.
If you know you are going to get your car valuated, you should gather all your maintenance records and documents (like your MOT, service history and V5C logbook) and identify any minor repairs that are needed, so you can give us an accurate description of your car's condition. You are also welcome to give the interior and exterior of your car a clean, so when we inspect your car in person, it's looking its best.
