Frequently Asked Questions
How Much is My Car Worth?

Can I Sell My Car on Finance?
Yes, you can still sell a car even if it has outstanding finance, but it does involve a few necessary steps. First, you must contact your finance company for a settlement figure, the amount you must pay to clear the finance. In a positive equity sale, if the car is worth more than your outstanding debt, you will keep the surplus. In the case of negative equity, you'll have to make up the difference. In either case, when you sell your financed car with one of our car buying partners, they will clear the remaining balance with your lender for you.

What Paperwork Do I Need to Sell My Car in The UK?
In the UK, you'll need to provide a few items when selling your car. These include:
The V5C logbook in your name
Outstanding finance information (if applicable)
Locking wheel nut
Spare keys and any additional equipment included with the car
Photo ID
Bank details for payment
Once you have all of the above ready, you're all set to sell your car through Exchange My Car! Our buyers will handle all the necessary paperwork on their end, making the selling process effortless for you.
Can you Sell a Car Without a V5C (Logbook)?
The V5C is an important document that proves your legal ownership of the car. Therefore it is required when selling a vehicle through us. Without it, the buyer has no reassurance that you're the legal owner and will not be able to proceed with the purchase. Additionally, it's the seller's responsibility to inform the DVLA of the change of ownership, which is usually done using the V5C. If you've misplaced your V5C, you can apply for a replacement from the DVLA before proceeding with the sale.
How Long Does it Take to Sell My Car to a Dealer?
Generally, it takes only two days to sell your car through us. However, the timeframe from accepting the offer to completing the sale will depend on when you wish to schedule the vehicle inspection and collection appointment. Once you've received an offer, the buyer will work with your schedule to find a convenient time for the inspection and collection of the car. After the inspection, you'll receive payment via bank transfer. Our partners aim to make the process as efficient as possible to ensure a quick and hassle-free sale for customers.
Is there a Fee/Commission for Selling my Car with you?
There is absolutely no fee or commission for you as a consumer to sell your car through us. Our goal is to simplify the selling process while maximising your return. All offers you receive from our network of buyers are equally free from charges. We believe in creating a transparent and fair vehicle selling experience – that means no surprise costs for our sellers at any stage of the process.
Can I Sell My Car Without Insurance?
Yes, it is technically possible to sell a car without insurance, but it's not considered best practice and can lead to legal liabilities. Selling an uninsured car can result in fines and penalties. If you're planning to sell your car, you might want to keep your existing insurance policy or start a short-term one instead until the vehicle is sold. You can check with your insurance provider to see if they can transfer your current policy to a new vehicle after you sell your current one. There are several solutions for managing your car insurance when you're ready to sell your car. If you're selling a SORNed car (Statutory Off Road Notification), it should be transported on a trailer or towed away, and therefore not require insurance. However, any car being driven on the road must be insured by law.
Can You Sell a Car Without MOT?
Yes, it is possible to sell a car without an MOT. However, it is crucial to note that driving a car on public roads in the UK without a valid MOT certificate is illegal, except when travelling to a pre-arranged MOT test. Therefore, if your car isn't currently roadworthy or the MOT has expired, the purchaser will have to make arrangements for its transportation. Also, keep in mind that the absence of a valid MOT may influence the price you receive for the car, as the new owner will be responsible for the cost of obtaining an MOT as well as the possibility of failing it. We facilitate the sale of cars irrespective of their MOT status. However, it is important to disclose this information during the valuation process to ensure transparency. Some of our car buying partners are adept at buying cars regardless of their MOT status, but the offer you receive will likely be adjusted to reflect this.
Can I Sell My Car to Trade Instead of Selling it on your platform?
We work with a wide range of car buying companies and dealers. Our service is designed to provide a straightforward and efficient way for you to sell your car directly to our network of buyers. If you haven’t received the valuation you expected, let us know and we will reach out to our trade network to try and get you an improved offer. We aim to ensure that you receive the best possible value for your vehicle without any hassle.
