 'What's My Car Worth?' was set up to enable people in the UK to get an approximate valuation for any car, without having to know a bonnet from a boot. As the old adage goes, knowledge is power and this is certainly true when it comes to buying a second hand car as cheaply as possible, or selling your used car at the best price. To get a valuation, simply input a number plate into the form to the left, or select a vehicle make from the form at the bottom of the left hand side of the site to get started. We then take the data that was provided, and compare it against a database with tens of thousands of car values. Then, within a few moments your vehicle valuation is completed. We don't ask for your email address or any other personal information.
Having an instant car valuation can be beneficial to people interested in both selling and buying a vehicle. For more information, read on...
Benefits for Buyers
As a potential used car buyer, knowing in advance the value of a car you are considering places you in a favourable position for negotiating effectively with a second hand car vendor, and can also serve as your best bargaining tool when buying privately. Unless a buyer is an expert in used car prices, they really have no room to negotiate. How can they? They don't know if they are getting a deal or if they are paying too much. Buyers can make strong offers on the vehicles that they are interested in because they know with accuracy what the value of the car is. As long as they stick to their guns, they will definitely protect themselves of being taken advantage of. Clearly the seller wishes to obtain the greatest profit possible while your aim is getting the car you want at the most favourable price. Checking the value of the vehicle (or a similar one) using our service beforehand is a simple and free means of obtaining this vital information, which can help in many matters, such as arranging car insurance.
 Benefits for Sellers
Online car auctions are a popular method these days of affecting the private sale of used cars, given that they are a convenient and relatively cheap means of advertising second hand cars to large numbers of potential buyers in the UK. Although many men and women are 'car people' that have a good understanding about the vehicle valuation process, many people are not. The last thing a seller wants to do is grossly under-price the car and leave money on the table. An online car valuation can make sellers more confident in the sales price they are asking for. This also holds true for sellers looking to part exchange when buying another vehicle from a dealership. The car valuation will ensure that sellers get the most trade-in value as they should.
Since the car is priced fairly, it will sell in the quickest time frame possible. Although sellers may be tempted to get a sales price greater than the value of their vehicle, the fact is that buyers are too smart these days. A car for sale that is priced too high will just sit there for a long time. Sellers that want to sell their vehicles in the least amount of time need to price their car at the fairest price.
