  • Any service history or service books.
  • Photo ID, such as a driver’s licence or passport.

How to get the best, most accurate price for your Volkswagen

Want the absolute best offer for your Volkswagen? A bit of prep can make a big difference. Here’s how you can help us give you a top-notch price:

  • Honesty is the best policy: Be thorough when describing your Volkswagen. Mention even minor damages and ensure the mileage is correct to within 500 miles. Transparency is crucial as discrepancies can alter the valuation.
  • Showcase the service history: Whether it’s a stamped logbook, orderly invoices, or digital records, present them all. This proves your Volkswagen has been well-maintained, potentially increasing its value.
  • A spotless presentation: First impressions count. A clean and tidy Volkswagen not only looks good but also allows us to inspect it more efficiently, respecting your valuable time.

If we need to tweak our offer, no stress – you’ve got a full week to think over the new valuation, with no pressure from us.

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.

Are there any fees or charges I should be aware of?

Nope! Unlike others, we don’t charge any fees when you sell your car to us – it’s completely free from start to finish!
