Selling your car should be a smooth and transparent experience, which is exactly what we offer. Whether you’re looking for an instant valuation, a competitive offer, or the reassurance of selling to a reputable buyer, the team at Gates are here to help. Simply enter a few details online and you will be provided with an approximate price for your car. However, your valuation can change depending on the condition of your car so, our expert team will arrange to inspect your vehicle before the final price is agreed.
We recognise that your car is valuable and we'll do everything that we can to ensure that you get the best possible price based on market trends and vehicle condition. We'll provide you with your guide price valuation - subject to inspection, terms and conditions. However, when selling your car, it is important to understand that several factors can have an impact on the valuation you receive. Naturally, age and mileage will affect the price, but the overall condition and service history will also be taken into consideration. Below, we have illustrated some typical vehicle conditions that our team will look at when the time comes to sell.
Our frequently asked questions will help provide more details on the process of selling your car to Gates. But if you still have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us directly by picking up the phone or by submitting an online enquiry form.
We value each car on an individual basis, looking at its condition, specification and history, rather than the book price alone – if it's the right car, we're happy to pay more. Although we always like to talk in person, we’re happy to liaise with you on the phone or through email. In fact, we can even collect your car from anywhere within mainland UK, and once a price has been agreed and handover has been conducted, you'll be paid instantly.
If you are looking to sell your current car, you are in the right place. We'll offer a purchase price to buy it outright.
