We price the car, not the postcode

Your year, make, model and mileage go against live trade auction results and current retail adverts for the same spec.

A named buyer signs off every figure. Nothing here is a teaser number designed to get you on the phone, and nothing is generated by an algorithm alone.

Ordinary cars are our bread and butter — Fiestas, Astras, Golfs, Qashqais. High mileage doesn't scare us and neither does a failed NCT.

Hold us to: a firm figure, not a range.

The assumptions are printed next to the price

You get the offer in writing alongside everything it assumes: mileage band, NCT status, condition grade, accident history and service records.

If one of those assumptions is wrong, we would far rather know now than argue on your driveway. Correct it and we re-price in minutes.

The offer stands for seven days. There is one follow-up call. Say no and you will not hear from us again.

Hold us to: seven days, no pressure, no chasing.

A ten-minute walkaround, done in front of you

We come to your home or work, seven days a week, anywhere in Ireland. Non-runners are recovered on a transporter at no cost.

The appraisal confirms the car matches what you told us. Anything we find is shown to you and explained on the spot — no clipboard disappearing round the back of the car.

96% of our collections complete at the original figure. When a price does change, it is because the car is materially different to the description, and we show you why.

Hold us to: nothing inspected out of your sight.

Money confirmed before the keys move

Cash counted in front of you, or a faster payment sent from our account while we are still standing with you.

You check your banking app and confirm receipt. Only then do the keys and the V5C change hands.

Outstanding finance is settled directly with your lender and the balance is sent to you the same day, with the settlement letter attached to your confirmation email.

Hold us to: paid first, keys second.

Closed off the same day

We handle the change of ownership immediately so liability transfers away from you, and issue a signed sale receipt on the spot.

Your confirmation email carries the sale record, the change of ownership reference and any finance settlement letter. Keep it, or ask us to delete your data — either is fine.

Insurance and road tax refunds are yours to claim, and we include the exact dates you need to do it.

Hold us to: written confirmation before midnight.
