How much is my car worth in Leicester?

When valuing your car, we take some crucial factors into consideration to get you the fairest and best price possible, including:

Make and model
Age of your car
Current mileage
Number of previous owners
Fuel type

Remember, the better the condition and the more documentation you have, the higher the valuation. A well-maintained car with all the paperwork will fetch more than one that has been neglected and lacks service history.
