Reading car selling FAQs
How much is my car worth in Reading?
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
- The state of the auto market in Reading
It’s no surprise that a car in excellent condition with proper documentation will receive a higher valuation. A well-maintained, pristine car with complete paperwork will always fetch a significantly higher price than a neglected one with no service history.

Looking to sell your car fast in Reading? You’re in luck! Just pop your car’s details into our website, and we’ll give you an instant offer that you can lock in by sending a few photos.

We will! Whether your car is nearly new, well-loved, or somewhere in between, we’re ready to buy it in Reading. So enter your car’s info, and as long as it isn’t a category car or one leading lots of repairs, we’ll give you a guaranteed offer right away – no strings attached.
How and when will I be paid for my car?
You’ll get paid on the spot when we pick up your car in Reading! After a quick once-over to confirm its condition, we’ll email you a secure NatWest payment link. The money will land in your account instantly, and we’ll stay until you’ve confirmed it’s there – so you can sell with complete peace of mind.
Prefer to drop your car off instead? No problem! The process is just as quick and easy. We’ll make sure the funds are in your account before you leave.
What happens when you come to collect my car?
When we come to pick up your car, it’s super simple! We’ll first have a quick look to make sure everything lines up with what you told us about its condition. Once that’s all good, we’ll send you a secure NatWest payment link to your email—usually within 30 minutes. You just need to follow the link to get your payment. We won’t leave until you’ve confirmed the payment is in your account. Easy as that! The same thing happens if you prefer dropping off your car at one of our locations – your money will be in your account before you leave.
Can I sell my car if there’s finance on it?
Absolutely you can! If you still owe money on your car, we can sort it out as part of the sale. We’ll work directly with the finance company to settle the balance. If your car’s value is higher than what’s left on the loan, the extra cash will go straight into your pocket. Easy, right?
What car conditions won’t you accept in Reading?
There are limited car conditions that we won’t accept in Reading – mainly if there’s extensive damage that costs too much to repair.

What happens if my car’s condition isn’t as described?
No worries! If there’s a mismatch between your description and the actual condition, we’ll review the offer during the inspection. The important thing is to be honest when you describe your car, and you can trust that we’ll stick to our original offer – no surprises here!
What does the inspection process involve?
Don’t worry – we keep things simple! We’ll go through a standard checklist to make sure your car matches the details you provided. This includes a quick diagnostics check with an OBD reader and a short test drive to confirm everything’s running smoothly before we go ahead with the handover.
What payment methods do you offer?
Once you’ve confirmed the sale and we’ve completed the final appraisal, we’ll make it official! Payment goes directly to your bank account through a secure NatWest payment link.
We’ll send that link to your email right after the appraisal, so you can confirm it’s in your bank account before our driver leaves with your car.
How do you determine the value of a car?
We base your car’s value on live market data, which means valuations can change daily. To lock in your best offer, send us a few photos so we can give you a guaranteed valuation that’s fixed for 7 days. This way, you have time to think things over without missing out on an unbeatable offer!
Are there any types of vehicles you do not purchase?
Our buying preferences are always evolving, but just to give you a heads up, we’re not currently looking for commercial vehicles like taxis, vans, trucks, private hire vehicles, and pickups.
We also aren’t buying cars with a damage category status, so that means no Cat A, Cat B, Cat S, or Cat N cars.
