Frequently Asked Questions
How do I sell my car or van with SellMyMotor.com?
Start by entering your vehicle’s registration on our homepage, along with the current mileage and your contact details.
Receive a free, instant valuation for your vehicle, which we’ll also email and text to you.
If you’re happy with the valuation, click 'Book Your Appointment,' and our team will get in touch to schedule the sale.
After agreeing on a price, we’ll arrange to collect your vehicle at no cost to you and send payment by bank transfer instantly.
Can I sell my car or van quickly?
Yes, we can help! Once you submit your details and book an appointment, we can contact you right away to discuss your vehicle. If you’re happy with the final offer, we can often arrange same-day collection so that you get paid as soon as possible.
How do online inspection appointments work?
A member of our buying team will reach out to discuss your vehicle in detail. The appointment typically takes around 15 minutes.
We’ll take note of the car’s condition, service history, and any visible damage you report, like scratches or dents.
Our Valuations Team will review the information to determine the most accurate offer for your vehicle, and then call you back with a final price.
If you’re happy with our offer, we’ll set up a convenient time to collect the vehicle and process payment via bank transfer during the collection.
How can I prepare for my online inspection appointment?
Ensure your phone is charged and that you have a good signal in the area where your vehicle is parked.
Park your vehicle in a safe location with enough space to walk around and inspect it fully.
Gather any vehicle documents, such as the service history, V5C, and keys, in advance of the appointment.
How long do I need to own my car before selling it?
You must have owned the vehicle, or have been the registered keeper, for at least three months before selling. This helps verify that you have legal rights to sell the car.
Do I need a valid MOT to sell my car?
We can buy cars with at least one month of MOT remaining. Our online valuation assumes three months of MOT, so if your car has less, the final price may be adjusted.
Are there any charges or fees for using SellMyMotor.com?
No, we offer free valuations and there are no fees for scheduling an appointment or completing the sale.
How will I receive payment for my sold car?
Payment is made directly via instant bank transfer. Our team stays with you until payment is confirmed, ensuring peace of mind at no extra cost.
How long is my valuation valid?
Your valuation remains valid for four days, giving you time to decide if you want to proceed with the sale.
Is the online valuation the same as the final offer?
The online valuation is an estimate based on the information you provide and market data. After a full inspection, the final offer may vary depending on the vehicle’s condition and paperwork.
Can I sell my car if it has a private plate?
Yes! If you want to keep the plate, contact the DVLA to reassign the original number before selling. We can also buy the car with the private plate if you prefer to leave it on.
Can I sell a car with outstanding finance?
Yes, we can help settle any remaining finance directly with the lender. If you owe more than the car’s value, you’ll need to cover the difference upon collection. We recommend discussing your options with an independent advisor if you’re unsure about the process.
Can I sell a vehicle that has been written off by insurance?
We can purchase vehicles classified as Category S or N. Unfortunately, we are unable to buy cars labeled Category A or B.
Do you accept electric vehicles?
Yes, we purchase electric cars! Your EV should have a full service history, two keys, a functioning charging cable, and a battery capable of full charge. We also ask that it has less than three prior owners and at least three months remaining on the MOT.
What is the process for selling a car when the owner has passed away?
We know this can be a challenging time, and we’re here to make the process as straightforward as possible. After accepting the valuation, let us know that the owner is deceased. During the appointment, please bring the death certificate, proof of your entitlement to sell the vehicle (like a will or solicitor’s letter), and personal ID. If there are multiple executors, all should attend with identification.
How is my personal information used, and can I request its removal?
We collect personal information (name, address, contact details) to provide valuations and process your sale. We use this information only as needed and retain it no longer than required. You may opt out of data collection by not submitting information or request its removal by emailing us at privacy@sellmymotor.com.
