Sell your car with ease

Selling your car shouldn’t be stressful, time-consuming, or confusing. At Real Autotrader, we make the process simple, transparent, and tailored to you. We focus on quality, not just clicks, to help you achieve the best possible price without the hassle of endless messages, viewings, or uncertainty.

How it works – sell your car in a few simple steps

We guide you through the entire process, from initial contact to secure payment. Our approach is designed for speed, fairness, and your peace of mind, making selling your used car in the UK straightforward.

Get in touch

Contact us online or by phone with your car’s basic details. We’ll ask a few quick questions to understand the vehicle and your expectations.

Receive a fair valuation

We assess your car based on the current market, condition, and demand. You’ll receive an honest, no-obligation valuation with no pressure to proceed.

Vehicle check & confirmation

If you’re happy with the price, we’ll arrange a convenient time to view the car or complete the checks needed to confirm the final offer.

What you'll need to sell your car

To keep things quick and hassle-free, please have your vehicle registration number, current mileage, V5C logbook (registered in your name), service history (if available), MOT details and expiry date, valid photo ID, all keys (including spares), and any outstanding finance details (if applicable) ready. Having these helps us value your car accurately, avoid delays, and get you paid faster.
