That's what we're here to help you with. At Swansway Motor Group, you can sell your car quicker and simpler than ever, not to mention for a great price. But we're not the only way.
With all this choice, how can you be sure you've found the best choice for you? In this guide, we're going to see who out there is buying cars so you can make an informed, confident choice.
Car dealerships
Dealerships have long been the traditional route for selling your car, whether independent, local, or franchised. Before the internet, there were few better ways to sell your car. You take the car to the dealership, and they buy the car from you.
Easy enough, right?
However, in the age of the internet, trust is paramount - not to mention a major selling point for car-buying platforms - and this is a key issue that dealerships face.
If you prefer that face-to-face interaction or the ability to negotiate price, selling your car with a dealership might be the choice for you.
Online car buying platforms
Nowadays, arguably the best way to sell your car is online, and there are many success stories that have made a major impact on today's used car market.
Car scrappage schemes
These are designed to encourage sellers to replace older, less environmentally friendly vehicles with newer, cleaner models.
If the car is eligible (depending on factors like age and emission standards), the seller can receive a fixed price. This price is generally not based on actual market value, but in some cases it can be even higher than this value.
Once the deal is finalised, the car is taken to a scrapping facility where it's dismantled and recycled in an environmentally friendly way.
