What we need to buy your car today

All we need to buy your car today is your reg number, some photos and a few car details. When we come to collect, we’ll also need:

  • Your V5 logbook/registration certificate. This needs to be registered in the name of the current owner
  • Any service history/service books
  • Photo ID. (e.g. driver’s licence, passport)
  • A proof of address. (e.g. a recent utility bill)
  • Car keys (including any spares)

We will also need the date of your car’s last MOT. If the current MOT runs out in under three months, we won’t be able to buy it.

Car Buying Valuation Checklist

We buy your car for the best price

Looking for the highest offer for your car? Silly question – of course you are! We make a promise to buy any car for the best price. Here’s what you can do to get a head start:

  • Be upfront about any imperfections, and make sure your mileage count is off by no more than 500 miles
  • Whether you have a stamped logbook, paper receipts, or a digital trail, being able to prove your car’s service history is a golden ticket
  • Make sure your vehicle is free of any mud or dirt, just so we can complete the inspection properly

Remember, though, if what we see is different to your description, we may have to adjust our offer.

FAQs

How can I sell my car fast?

For a fast car sale, sell your car to us! It only takes a couple of minutes to get your offer, and then we’ll come and collect your car for free – sometimes in as little as 24 hours!

What price will you buy my car for?

The price we buy your car for will depend on a few things like:

  • Make and model
  • Age
  • Mileage
  • Service history
  • Current supply and demand levels
  • The condition of the bodywork and interior

All of our offers are based on real-time market rates with zero hidden costs. This means you can be 100% confident you’re getting the best price when you sell to us.

What car conditions do you buy?

We buy cars in a wide range of conditions, from average and good to excellent. For a more detailed breakdown, check our conditions guidelines.

What happens if my car doesn’t match the description I gave?

If your car doesn’t match the description you gave us, we may have to change our offer or withdraw it altogether. If we do change the price, you’ll have another 7 days to think things through.

How does the payment process work?

When you choose our free collection service, here’s how the payment process works:

  • Our driver will knock on your door and give you a call to let you know they’ve arrived.
  • They’ll check with our admin team to confirm that your car matches the original description.
  • Next, one of our appraisers will walk you through the payment process. Within 30 minutes, you’ll receive a secure payment link from NatWest via email. Just follow the link, and the funds will be transferred to you.
  • Once you confirm that you’ve received the payment, our driver will head off with your car—so be sure to say your goodbyes!

Our appraisal team will follow the same steps if you choose to drop off your car instead, making sure you have your money before you leave.

Can you walk me through the entire car buying process step-by-step?

It’s a very simple process!

First things first – to get an offer, we just need some details about your car and a few quick photos. Once we’ve got those, one of our agents will reach out with a guaranteed 7-day offer.

If you’re happy with the offer, just let us know within those 7 days. We’ll arrange either a free pickup or a drop-off at one of our locations – whichever is easiest for you. We’ll also send you an email with simple instructions on any documents we’ll need ahead of time.

On pickup day, our driver will give you a call when they’re on their way, do a quick final check on the car, and explain the payment process. Now for the best bit: we’ll email over a secure

Natwest payment link within 30 minutes, and the driver will make sure the money is in your account before they drive off!

If you decide to drop off your car, our team will complete a final appraisal on-site and make sure you receive payment before you leave. Easy as that!

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.

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.

The best way to find out if your car is for us is to complete a quick valuation, right here on our website!

I have already filled out the evaluation form, what should I do next?

Great! The next step is to send us a few photos of your car. Once we have those and everything checks out, we’ll provide a guaranteed valuation that’s valid for a full 7 days.

If you’re happy with the offer, we’ll reach out to arrange a free pickup or a convenient drop-off – whichever works best for you!

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!

What details do you need to provide an initial valuation?

To get started, we just need your car’s registration number, mileage, and a few personal details to provide an estimated valuation. For a guaranteed offer, though, we’ll ask you to send a few photos of your car – that’s the best way to lock in your price so you can start thinking about how to spend it!

How long does inspection typically take?

Inspections are quick and easy, usually taking around 30 minutes. Sometimes it might take a tad longer, but we keep things hassle-free from start to finish – whether you’re opting for pickup or drop-off!

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!

Can I sell my car here even if I don't buy a new one from you?

Absolutely! BigWantsYourCar.com is a purely online car-buying service. We’re just here to offer you a great price on your vehicle and hand over the money hassle-free.

Fill out our online valuation form to get started, and we’ll take it from there!
