How selling to us works

Four steps, one visit, no obligation until the money is in your account.

What's it worth?

Reg and mileage in, a firm offer back on WhatsApp.

MM

Matthew Moore. In the motor trade since 1998, main-dealer trained. You deal with me from first message to payment.

01

Send the reg

Type it in with the mileage, or send a photo of the number plate on WhatsApp. That's all we need to start; no forms, no personal details.

02

Get your offer

Matthew replies with a number, or with two questions and a request for four photos. Usually within the hour during the day. In writing, valid for 7 days, no obligation.

03

Sold and paid

We come to the car, check it matches the photos, and you confirm the transfer has landed before we leave. We file the change of ownership the same day.

1. Sending the reg

Type it into the box with the mileage, or open WhatsApp and send a photo of the number plate. Either way it lands in the same chat with Matthew. Nothing is sent until you press send in WhatsApp, and we hold nothing about you until then.

2. The offer

If the car is common and the photos are clear you get a number straight back. If not, you get two questions and a request for four photos: front three-quarter, rear, the dashboard with the mileage showing, and one of the interior. That's enough to price most vehicles without a visit.

The number is worked out from what the same model, year and mileage is actually selling for in Ireland right now, less what it costs to prepare and resell. It's sent in writing and it's valid for 7 days. If finance is outstanding we get the settlement figure and show you the split.

3. The visit

We come to the car, anywhere in Ireland. It takes about 20 minutes: a walk round, a look underneath, a short drive if it's driveable. If the car matches the photos, the offer stands. If it doesn't, we tell you exactly what's different and what that does to the number, and you decide.

4. Payment and paperwork

Bank transfer to your account while we're with you. You see it clear before the keys change hands. We complete the dealer section of the VRC, file the change of ownership the same day, and send you confirmation. No cash, no bank drafts, no "we'll sort it next week".

Bring on the day: the VRC (logbook), the NCT cert if there is one, both keys, and photo ID matching the VRC. If the car is in someone else's name, they need to be there or to have signed.

Start with the reg.
