For us to purchase your car, we will require the current V5C registration certificate in your current address, the vehicle's service history, current MOT certificate (if applicable) and any bills or receipts you may have from any work work undertaken on the vehicle.

No problem, at mycar4cash we’re happy to purchase vehicles with any outstanding finance.

All valuations provided online are subject to inspection and full appraisal of the vehicle and are not a contractual offer to purchase the vehicle. The online valuation provides a guide price guide based on the leading industry guide and does not take into account any lack of service history, damage or modifications to the vehicle for example.
The valuation you receive online is valid for 7 days, as is any valuation provided to you at a personal inspection. After this period, it will unfortunately not be valid and the vehicle will have to be revalued. The market changes frequently so we alter our prices to reflect this. Please remember, the valuation you receive online at mycar4cash is not a contractual guarantee.
Whether you have used our online valuation tool or would prefer to speak to someone directly, there are several convenient ways to arrange an appointment with one of our local team members. You can email us on info@mycar4cash.co.uk, call us on 01273 964598 or speak to us via our online live chat.
Before we visit you and your vehicle, you will be assigned with one of our expert vehicle valuators who will introduce themselves to you and provide their contact details. We do this first so you know precisely who to expect at the valuation. During the inspection, your personal valuator will view the vehicle and ask you any questions in relation to the vehicle. We’re a really friendly, experienced group of local people who want to provide you with the very best price for your vehicle. We are incredibly proud to offer you a polite and professional approach to buying your car.
If after the inspection you’re happy to proceed with the sale of your vehicle we can arrange payment and collection details. Should the valuation not meet your satisfaction, or you would just prefer a little more time to think about it, then no problem. We’re friendly, local people who will never hassle you to sell your vehicle. Your valuation is guaranteed for 7 days from inspection so if or when you’re ready to sell just contact your dedicated expert.
We aim to complete the purchase of your vehicle in a maximum of three working days, but this can be quicker. Options can be discussed with your dedicated valuation specialist.
The valuation you receive from our free online tool is dependent on several factors that you tell us about your vehicle so is therefore not a contract to purchase your car. Once a viewing appointment has been arranged, at a time and place convenient for you, you will be assigned with one of our expert valuators who will inspect the vehicle. It’s not until we inspect your car that we can offer you a guaranteed final price to purchase your vehicle. In some cases, we may find that after inspection the vehicle may be worth a little more than our online valuation tool.
Once a valuation and purchase has been agreed we will arrange payment directly and securely into your chosen bank account within 3 days with no charge. It is possible to pay funds the same day for your car; however there may be a small additional charge for this. Our friendly experts will be happy to discuss this with you.
