What Ford cars do you buy?

We accept all models, no matter the age or mileage! As long as your Ford is roadworthy, hasn’t previously been a service vehicle (such as a taxi) or an insurance write-off, we should be able to help you sell it. We can also buy your Ford if it still has outstanding finance - you'll just need to provide a settlement letter from your finance company.

The top three most sold Ford models on Carwow* currently are: Ford Fiesta, Ford Focus, Ford Kuga.

How can I get the best price for my Ford?

  • Carry out repairs

    The better shape that your Ford is in, the more it will be worth. Don’t worry about every minor scratch, but if your car has any larger scuffs or damage, then it's worth getting these fixed.

  • Give an honest and accurate description

    Provide as much information as you can, calling out any notable features and equipment. Failing to mention any issues with your Ford could affect how much you'll get.

  • Keep a full service history

    Include any details of your Ford’s service history, repair work, and remaining time on its MOT certificate so buyers know your car has been looked after.

  • Give it a good clean

    Clean your Ford thoroughly both inside and out, then photograph it from multiple angles when it’s looking its best.

Sell my Ford FAQs

Glad you asked. Once you’ve entered your reg for a quick valuation, we’ll just need a few more details about your Ford and some photos. Once we’ve got them our team will be in touch to help you set a ‘reserve price’ - this is the amount you’d be happy to sell your car for, many customers get more!

Then we’ll do EVERYTHING else. As you go about your day your car will be advertised in our online auctions and our network of 5,500+ trusted nationwide dealers can bid on it. When the auction’s over we’ll let you know the result and the winning dealer will be in touch to arrange a free collection and your payment.

It’s completely free! No hidden costs or admin fees, all you need to think about is what you’ll do with the money and which car you’re choosing next!
Once your listing is approved:

  • We’ll get your car into one of our daily auctions - the speed of offers depends on the demand for your specific model. If it doesn’t sell at auction we’ll showcase your Ford for two additional days to give you a second chance to sell it.
  • Once you accept an offer you love, we or the dealer will be in touch within 48 hours to sort out the next steps. 
  • Make sure you have your documents ready to avoid any delays - our dealers will pick up your car on a day that works for both of you. 

So it’s pretty smooth sailing… or should that be smooth cruising?

We’ll need your registration, some photos and a few basic details - such as your car’s current mileage and any service history you have.

On collection day you’ll need the following to hand:
Yes, you can sell your financed car.

Many of our dealers buy cars that are on finance. You’ll need to provide a settlement letter from your finance company. If the sale price exceeds the settlement figure, you'll get the extra cash, which is known as positive equity. 

But if the car's value is less, you'll need to cover the difference, called negative equity.

Just remember, the process for settling your outstanding finance may vary depending on your finance contract.

We connect you with a network of over 5,500 trusted dealerships, including franchised dealers, independent dealers, and specialist buyers. You'll receive competitive offers based on your car's details, helping you get a great price.
Most payments arrive on the same day as your car is collected, but some dealers have their own policies. Rest assured, we only work with trusted dealers to give you a secure and hassle-free experience.
