Q: How much is my car worth?

You can easily find out how much your car is worth by simply entering your car details into our free valuation tool. This is an up-to-date valuation using real market data which analyses several factors, such as: 5 Factors that can affect your car’s value 1. Modifications Some added features can increase your car’s value such as, alloy wheels, new tyres, and infotainment systems. However, many modifications can negatively impact your car’s value as these original parts are made to fit correctly in your car, so modifying these impacts the design integrity 2. Condition If your vehicle is in good condition with no damage, this will seriously add value to your car. Even cars with slight wear and tear that is relative to the car’s age will have a decent value. On the other hand, though, if the car has significant damage then this will decrease value. 3. Previous Owners Generally, vehicles with a smaller number of previous owners, should have a more consistent level of care and maintenance. Whereas vehicles with more owners can be subject to various conditions of upkeep. This is why it’s advised to regularly service and maintain your car as this can add value to your vehicle. 4. Seasonality Interestingly, cars can go up or down in value depending on the season due to market demand. For example, SUVs are more valuable in winter as these cars are suited to icy conditions. Whereas convertibles are worth more in the summer months. 5. Mileage Mileage is a key indication of how much wear and tear the vehicle has suffered. And any extensive wear and tear lowers the value of a car because it’s likely the car will need repairs now, or in the future. Hence, why low mileage vehicles sell for much more than a comparable vehicle with high mileage.

Low mileage generally means the car has endured less wear and tear because it hasn’t been driven as much. This means the car should have more longevity and will sell for 20-30% more than a similar vehicle with high mileage.
