How We Value LHD Cars
Our valuation process is meticulous and considers the unique aspects of the LHD market, allowing us to offer competitive prices:
- Brand and Model Popularity: The inherent desirability and market demand for a specific brand and model play a significant role.
- Mileage: Lower mileage typically correlates with higher value, though we consider the overall condition relative to the mileage.
- Condition (Interior, Exterior, Mechanical): A thorough assessment of the car’s aesthetic and functional state is crucial. This includes bodywork, interior wear, engine performance, and any known mechanical issues.
- EU Spec Compliance & Features: We understand that LHD cars often come with different specifications, engines, and features designed for the European market.
Condition Doesn’t Matter – We Still Buy
Unlike many buyers who only want pristine vehicles, we understand that not every car is in showroom condition.
- Damaged, Non-Runners, or High-Mileage? We are prepared to give an honest, fair offer for LHD cars with accident damage, mechanical faults (non-runners), or those that have accumulated high mileage.
- We Handle Logistics Even for Difficult Pickups: Whether your car is stranded due to a mechanical issue or located in a challenging-to-access area, our logistics team is equipped to handle complex pickups across the UK and Western Europe.

Regardless of whether you drive a practical family car like a Fiat 500 or a high-performance Ferrari, if it’s Left Hand Drive, we are ready to make you a competitive offer. Our comprehensive approach to valuation, understanding of the unique LHD market dynamics, and commitment to purchasing vehicles in any condition truly makes us the number one choice.
