Free used car valuation

About free valuations

  • How to use our valuations

    Our free valuations are for cars up to eight years old and are revised every month by a team of researchers with years of experience, so you know they can be relied on. When you get a valuation you will see five sets of figures:

  • Part exchange price

    This is the value of a car when trading it in for a newer vehicle at a franchised or reputable independent dealer.

  • Dealer price

    This is the selling price asked by established independent dealers. This price will include VAT and a profit margin for the dealer.

  • Trade price

    What private buyers will get by selling their car direct to a trader or dealership in a cash deal wtih no part-exchange.

  • Private price

    What private buyers should expect to pay for a car seen in the classified advertisements of a newspaper or magazine, or shown in a used car publication.

  • Cost new

    The most recent manufacturer's on-the-road price for a brand new car.
