What We Buy at We Buy Cars Hexham
(and What We Try Harder On)
Most local buyers have a long "we don't buy" list. We are closer to the opposite. Any age, any mileage, any condition, we will at least make an offer. If we cannot buy directly we will try to underwrite through a trade partner. If the car is stuck somewhere awkward we will bring a winch. All we ask in return is an honest description upfront.
We always at least make an offer
Any age
From the 1950s to current registration plates. Old, modern, and everything in between.
Any mileage
From delivery-mileage to over the moon. High mileage does not scare us if the rest of the story stacks up.
Any fuel type
Petrol, diesel, hybrid, EV, LPG conversions. All considered.
Non-runners + MOT fails
Cars off the road, SORN cars, MOT failures, and major mechanical faults. Free recovery in most cases.
Accident-damaged cars
Including Category N and Category S. Treated honestly, valued fairly.
Probate vehicles
With a Grant of Representation. Calm, practical, no time pressure. Probate process here.
Finance-encumbered cars
Settlement handled on the day at collection.
Fleet and business
Multi-vehicle disposals for businesses, sole traders and small fleets. Business disposal details.
Stuck cars and difficult collections
If the car has been off the road long enough that vegetation has grown up around it, yes, we have winched cars out from under trees in the past, we will still come and get it.
Worst case we charge for the recovery time, and we tell you upfront what that looks like before we set off. There is no driveway-renegotiation game.
When we cannot buy direct, we underwrite
Some cars are too specialist for our retail book. A high-value performance car, a classic, a rebuilt or modified build, a car that sits between trade and auction better than direct buy. Direct purchase does not suit either side in those cases.
In those cases we have a network of trade partners. We can introduce you, manage the inspection flow, and shield you from time-wasters. We have helped underwrite deals on cars over £75,000 this way. You get the right buyer found by someone who knows the market. We do not get the direct margin, but we look after our network and our network looks after us.
What we ask in return
- An honest description of the car upfront, including any damage, history gaps or known faults.
- V5C in your name, or a clear reason why not. Probate, business sale, family transfer all fine if documented.
- A realistic expectation of trade value. We are not the price match against a private-sale ask.
The short version
If your car has wheels and a registration, ring us. If we can buy it directly we will. If we cannot, we will try to find someone who can. Either way you will know within a phone call where we are at.
