SELL USED CAR FREE.CO.UK – FAQS
I want to sell my car today, I have several questions…
Below are some frequently asked questions – if you do not find the answer to your questions – please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
WHAT DOES IT COST TO SELL MY CAR TO YOU AND HOW QUICKLY WILL I BE PAID?
There is NO cost to you to sell your car to us. We provide a FREE valuation and FREE collection of your car from anywhere in Southeast England at a time & place convenient for you.
We pay you for your car by cleared funds when we collect it – so payment is immediate.
I HAVE OUTSTANDING FINANCE, I NEED TO SELL MY CAR FAST, CAN I SELL IT?
Yes, you can sell your car, but the outstanding amount must be paid.
You can do this in one of two ways;
- You can settle the outstanding balance directly with your finance company yourself - we will require written confirmation from them that they have received full, cleared payment when we collect your car
OR
- We can settle the finance for you, we will simply deduct the outstanding amount from the valuation of your car and pay it on your behalf (data protection laws require that you obtain the settlement figure which we need written confirmation of from your finance company)
NB - If you owe more than the sale price of your car, you will need to pay the balance prior to us collecting it. We will need written confirmation from your finance company when we collect your car. Alternatively you can pay us the difference in the form of a Bankers draft made payable to your finance company.

I WANT TO SELL MY CAR NOW, SHOULD I SELL IT NOW, OR IS THE MARKET ON THE WAY UP?
The only certainty in the motor industry at the moment is that it is volatile! The likely-hood is though, that your car will continue to depreciate as time goes on – running costs get higher as a car gets older and if you are considering selling your car for any reason – now is as good a time as any!
I DO NOT HAVE THE REGISTRATION DOCUMENT FOR MY CAR – WILL YOU BUY IT?
For us to be able to buy your car, we must have the V5 Registration document (logbook). If you have mislaid it, but the car is registered in your name, DVLA have an express service available, or you can complete and return a V62 form - obtainable from the post office or online from this link; http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Diol1/DoItOnline/DG_4017825.
