Posted on February 4, 2023
If you need money fast, selling an asset is a straightforward way to make it. If you’re selling a car, you could theoretically sell it and have the money in your bank the same day. We'll show you how to sell your car for the most money in 2022.
Now that’s fast money!
The fastest, easiest way is to sell your car for the most money to our dealership. We’ll appraise it, make an offer and pay you within an hour or two, direct into your bank.
No adverts, no tire kickers, no managing test drives or viewings. Just professional people who treat you with the respect you deserve and who will make a fair offer for your car.
First, you need to prepare your car for sale and figure out how much it’s worth.
While we make fair offers on all the cars we buy, we also want you to know what a good deal you’re getting.
You’ll only walk away from the table happy if you know you got a fair price and that’s what we want!
Prepare your car for sale
You don’t have to do anything to prepare your car for sale but you’ll get the best price and the fastest offer is you do.
We’ll buy dirty, unprepared cars but our offer will be lower as a result. We just don’t know what’s hiding underneath the dirt and grime so will have to hedge our bets.
Preparing your car shows us exactly what we’re buying, giving us full confidence to make a fair offer.
So, we recommend cleaning the car inside and out. Removing all personal items, any trash and anything you don’t want to lose.
Fix broken bulbs, worn tires and anything that’s cheap and easy to fix. We fully prepare vehicles for resale, so don’t worry about any of the big stuff.
Value your car
The good to getting a good deal is being able to identify one when you see it. That’s going to be partly down to knowing how much your car is worth on the open market.
We recommend checking Carfax, Kelley Blue Book, Auto Trader, eBay, Craigslist and any local car marketplaces that operate in your area.
Make sure to compare apples to apples. Compare the exact make, model, year and trim of car. Try to get the mileage and condition as close as possible for more accuracy.
You’ll find some cars are more plentiful than others online. If you drive a popular car, using the colour and mileage as close as possible can make a difference to the value.
If you drive a less plentiful car, get as close as you can to the make, model, year and trim and go from there.
Note the lower prices you see online and the higher prices.
Take an average of all the prices you see on those marketplaces. This will give you a ballpark figure of what your car is worth.
Once you have this, you can sell your car to our dealership with the full confidence you’re going to get a good deal. It’s a little thing but one that can make a huge difference when it’s time.
