How Much Is My Car Worth in Hampshire?

Wondering what your car is worth? Whether you're planning to sell, trade in, or scrap your vehicle in Hampshire, understanding its value is the first step.

Factors That Determine Your Car's Value

For Running Vehicles

  • Make, model, and year — Popular models hold value better
  • Mileage — Lower mileage generally means higher value
  • Service history — A full history adds confidence and value
  • Condition — Both mechanical and cosmetic condition matter
  • MOT status — A long MOT adds value

For Non-Running/Scrap Vehicles

  • Vehicle weight — More metal = higher scrap value
  • Salvageable parts — Engines, gearboxes, and body panels have value
  • Catalytic converter — These contain precious metals
  • Current scrap metal prices — These change regularly
