Frequently asked questions
How quickly can I sell my car in Essex?
You can sell your car in as little as 30 minutes. Get an instant online valuation, book a same-day appointment at our Colchester or Braintree centre, and walk away with the cash before you leave.
How does same-day payment work?
Once you arrive at our centre and we’ve completed a quick visual check on your vehicle, we transfer the agreed amount directly to your bank account. The funds typically clear within minutes via Faster Payments. Cash is also available on request.
Will the price drop when I get to your centre?
No. The price you receive online is the price we pay, provided the car matches the details you've given us (mileage, condition, history). Unlike some buyers, we don’t inflate online quotes to reduce them at collection.
What documents do I need to bring?
You’ll need your V5C logbook, two forms of ID (one photo ID like a passport or driving licence, plus a recent utility bill or bank statement), and all sets of keys. If your car has outstanding finance, bring a recent settlement letter from your finance provider.
Do you buy cars with outstanding finance?
Yes. We can settle outstanding finance on your behalf as part of the sale. Bring your finance settlement letter and we’ll deduct the settlement figure from your sale price, paying the lender directly and the balance to you.
Where in Essex are your centres?
We have two collection centres in Essex: one at Church Farm, Marks Tey, Colchester (CO6 1LW) and one at Lower Chapel Hill, Braintree (CM7 3QU). Both are easy to reach from across Essex, Suffolk, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire.
