How to Sell Your Car for More

Check valuation guides and compare similar cars for sale in your area. Get instant offers from several buyers to set a baseline.

A professional valet or thorough clean can make a car look much more appealing. Fix small, inexpensive issues like blown bulbs and worn wiper blades.

Service records, receipts for recent work, spare keys, and the owner’s manual reassure buyers and support your price.

Photograph the car in good light from all angles, plus the interior, dashboard, and tyres. Be honest about any damage.

Accompany test drives, check the buyer’s licence, and make sure payment has cleared before handing over keys and documents. Complete the official transfer of ownership.
