What happens when you buy my unwanted car?
When we buy your broken car there are lots of different things we take into consideration. Is the car running or non-running, does it have accident damage, or is it a Category I or W Insurance write off. Regardless of the problem with your vehicle, we would certainly like to purchase it as we buy any damaged car or van. This includes Engine Faults, Timing chains, Transmission issues, etc..
On the day of collection our driver will call back to our office to say he is with the vehicle and we will transfer the full agreed amount into your bank account or cash payment. We have NO Charges or NO Haggling and we are always on hand should you need to ask us any questions.
