Get a free car valuation and find out how much your car is worth in less than 30 seconds.
Our car valuation tool is fast, intuitive and completely free to use. Simply enter the vehicle’s registration and mileage and our car value checker will tell you its current value (based on real-time market data).
Knowing the value of a car can be helpful in a variety of scenarios, including:
When selling your car, knowing what it's worth can help you set the right price point.
You can also use your valuation to select a minimum and maximum price to help you negotiate with potential buyers.
Has a car listing piqued your interest? Try entering the reg plate into our car value calculator tool. Your quick valuation will indicate whether the price is competitive:
If the price (and everything else) checks out, you can buy with confidence.
If the price is higher than expected but you’re otherwise keen on the car, you may be able to use your valuation to leverage a discount.
Part exchanging can be a convenient selling option but remember that the dealer will be looking to make a profit.
Getting a quick car valuation before part exchanging can clarify whether you’re getting a fair trade-in price.
When setting up a car insurance policy, your provider will usually ask you to declare an estimated value. It’s important to answer honestly, as if you underestimate your car’s value, you could invalidate the policy.
Remember, an insurance valuation might not match what you paid for the car. You should consider the vehicle’s age and other depreciation factors.
Our car valuation tool factors in these variables for you. Enter your reg and mileage details for a quick, hassle-free valuation.

Certain models are more desirable and retain their value better than others. If you have a car that is in demand then it could be worth more than you think.
Cars with fewer previous owners are often worth more. Buyers often perceive cars with many past owners to have a higher risk of mechanical failure.
If your car has any cosmetic or mechanical damage, it will be worth less than an identical model in pristine condition. Damage such as scratches, dents, stone chips, and other wear and tear will devalue your car.
An intact manufacturer’s warranty can boost your car’s resale value, as many buyers appreciate the added reassurance.
A car with a low mileage for its age will retain more of its value than an identical model with a more miles on the clock.
Extras such as heated seats and upgraded alloys may boost your car’s value and desirability.
Cars are worth more with a full service history than if they have missing service paperwork. A complete history helps to reassure buyers that the car has been well maintained.
Market prices fluctuate based on supply and demand. We use live market data to give you an accurate price at the time of the valuation.
Providing the details you entered accurately reflect your car’s condition and history, the offer our buyer makes at your appointment will match your initial valuation. Any missing details may impact the final offer you receive.
Our valuations are based on industry standard data provided by CAP. They will constantly reassess the data to adhere to market fluctuations and ensure the valuation of your car is accurate.
Providing all of the details you’ve entered match the condition of the car, the online valuation will match what you receive at your local branch. If you fail to disclose any information such as scratches or if you enter the incorrect mileage, this may impact the final offer you receive.
Your car’s value will depend on factors such as its age, make and model, mileage, condition, and the level of market demand.
To find out how much your car is currently worth, simply enter its reg plate and mileage into our car valuation tool.
Get my car valuationGetting a valuation for your car at regular intervals can be useful even if you’re not ready to sell.
Evaluating your car periodically will show you how it depreciates over time - and help you decide whether it’s best to sell now or bide your time.
If you own a rare or collectible model, using our car valuation tool can tell you whether the vehicle is appreciating in value over time.
Before you start your online valuation, please make sure you have the following information available:
No, you don’t need any documents to get your free car valuation. The only information you need to provide is your vehicle’s reg number and mileage.
However, bear in mind that if certain key documents are missing (such as the V5C logbook and service documents) it may be difficult to sell your car.
Getting an independent valuation beforehand can help you tell whether you’re getting a fair deal – or allow you to negotiate a better price.
If you’re not happy with the dealership’s final offer, webuyanycar may be able to beat it. All our customers benefit from a guaranteed sale - and we can even transfer the money to your bank within 15 minutes if you select our ‘Immediate Payment’ option.
Part-exchange value depends on a range of factors such as the car’s age, mileage, trim, condition, and market demand. You’ll usually get slightly below market value if you sell through a part-exchange deal.
However, you could get more cash towards your next purchase by selling your car to webuyanycar. Use our free car valuation tool to find out how much your motor could be worth.
Modifications can positively or negatively affect your car’s resale value. Certain changes such as adding a modern infotainment system or sat nav technology to an older car, or replacing the tyres or brakes can boost value.
Overly personalised or aftermarket mods that radically change the specs or appearance of the car may hurt its value, unless you find a buyer that appreciates your tastes.
When you get a valuation through webuyanycar, our price guarantee protects you from market changes for 4 days. So, if your car’s market value drops during this time, your valuation will be unaffected.
However, if you’re outside the price guarantee period, your valuation may rise or fall depending on the market conditions. If your car’s market value increases within 30 days of your valuation, we’ll notify you by email.
Yes, we'll send a copy of your valuation to the email address that you provided. We may also send any price updates via email depending on the market conditions.
Your car may be worth more at certain times of the year, as the price can fluctuate due to seasonality.
For example, convertibles sell for more in spring, as the weather improves and favours top-down driving, whilst prices for 4x4s and SUVs rise in autumn, as these cars can handle wintery conditions better than most.
Macroeconomic factors such as inflation and interest rates can also affect car values.
