Scrap or Sell?
The policy of each online used car seller varies, some may be strict to only functional motor vehicles within a certain age bracket.
Most online sellers, like us here at Jamjar.com, are very competitive, but we are very flexible on what we purchase whatever the condition and also deal with scrappage.
What Information Will I Need to Provide?
General information you’ll need at hand will be:
- Registration number
- Mileage
- Service History
- Has the car passed its MOT and when?
Choosing the Best Website
When looking at websites you must make sure that the website is a legitimate company as you will be entering your personal details.
Check to make sure that they have a good reputation with customer service as you want to be able to discuss all options with them and at hand if anything urgent arises.
It’s good practice to check reviews of your chosen website and also establish how long they’ve been in the sector. For a good comparison, we’ve been trading for 18 years, with entrenched links to 300 collection operators in the UK, ensuring that wherever you are – we can collect. Our service is all about helping you to sell your car online for the best price.
