You will need your V5C Registration document, otherwise known as a logbook.
You will need to apply for a new V5C with the DVLA, and you will need to complete a V62 form to request for a new logbook. You can get this form online, or you can get one from your post office. If you need any help with applying for a new V5C logbook, just get in touch. We should be able to still purchase your vehicle whilst you apply for a new logbook V5C, please get in touch if this applies to you.
We make our payments via immediate bank transfer securely and directly to your bank account. We can also send payments to finance companies.
Never. Collection is absolutely free, and there are no hidden costs or charges. Whatever the amount is on our email offer, is the exact amount you will receive directly to your bank account.
No chance! Some car buying services will offer a too-good-to-be-true price for your vehicle, only to make you arrange an inspection where they then scour the car for any flaw whatsoever. They will then dramatically knock their original offer down. Here at Sell Your Problem Car, we don’t inspect cars or look at them. No appointments, no inspections. You also have the money from us before we collect the vehicle. We would only adjust our price if the information supplied to us was not correct about the vehicle. (e.g. incorrect mileage, no declaration of extensive bodywork damage).
Collection is always free with us. We can collect from anywhere in the UK Mainland.
We just need the entire V5C Logbook (we do not get issued a new one in the trade) and the keys. If you have any service history for the car that would be great to have included, but it is not essential.
Yep, not a problem whatsoever. In fact, most cars we collect are from garages. You just need to let the garage or person in service at a dealership know that you are selling the vehicle to us. We can arrange the collection with the garage themselves. We would get you paid, then all you have to do is take your personal belongings from the car and leave the keys with the garage.
Not at all. We just need someone to meet our driver to hand over keys and the V5C. If the car is at a garage, this can be a member of staff there.
We specialise in buying broken vehicles. All our drivers will collect your vehicle in a recovery truck/recovery trailer set up with a winch.
We will always pay you before we collect your car, and before it goes anywhere. In the majority of cases, we will pay you the same day you go ahead with our offer.
No problem, we can pay finance companies directly to clear their interest in your car. If there is any money left over from settling your agreement, we would pay the remainder to you. You can also clear our finance in full, and we would pay you our full offer amount directly.
In this case, you would need to pay the difference to leave our offer amount as the outstanding amount owed. We would then pay the finance company directly, leaving your outstanding finance settled.
Nothing at all! We can sort everything regarding the DVLA. We will notify them you have sold your car to us, and we will sort out any remaining tax left on the car. You will get an email and a letter in the post from the DVLA themselves to confirm this has been done. If you pay your tax annually, you will get a cheque in the post from the DVLA to refund you. If you pay your tax monthly, the direct debits will automatically stop. You are also more than welcome to notify the DVLA yourself if you would prefer. If you would like to let the DVLA know yourself, it is your important responsibility that you update them correctly and in a prompt time frame once we’ve got you paid.
Not one bit. You will need to put your private number plate on retention with the DVLA or transfer it to another vehicle. Whilst this process is happening, we can still go ahead and purchase your vehicle and get it collected. You do not need to worry about creating replacement number plates with the original reg for your car, we can sort that. We just ask you to get in touch when the new logbook with the original vehicle registration on, arrives.
We try to offer our best price straight away on cars. We’re always happy to look further into a certain car. If your car has any desirable optional extras and/or is in particularly lovely condition, let us know and we’ll see what we can do. You can also provide some photos of your car for us to look at.
We do!
Don’t hesitate to get in touch! Sean, Ellie or Harvey will be more than
happy to help. Please give us a call on 01366 387967.
