Whether your car is ready to scrap or it has still got some miles left in it, CarTakeBack buys any faulty car. Simply tell us your registration and postcode to see how much you can sell your faulty car for. Our buyers in your local area compete to offer you the best deal for your vehicle, meaning you get the highest price for your faulty car.

We won’t haggle. When you get a quote, simply answer a few questions about the condition of your car in advance and if you’ve given us accurate info, you’ll get an accurate quote, no chipping the price for things like scratches, or missing trim.

It’s completely free and there’s no obligation. Plus, we’ll even save your quote for seven days.

Free car collection

Some car buying companies need you to drop your car off when you sell it – that’s not always possible, especially if your car is faulty. However, CarTakeBack offer free car collection – we’ll contact you to arrange a time and place that’s best for you. Get your car collected from work, home, a garage, or any place that suits you throughout the UK!

Official paperwork sorted

Whether your faulty car needs to be scrapped or not, we’ll help you to sort the necessary DVLA paperwork and avoid any potential fines. It’s vital that you ensure you’re free of responsibility of your old car. If you’re selling your faulty car to us, your local branch will help you to correctly inform the DVLA using your registration certificate.

If your car needs to be scrapped, we will provide you with an official DVLA Certificate of Destruction, proving you’re no longer responsible for the car.

Choosing to sell your vehicle with CarTakeBack means you can rest assured that everything legal will be sorted, hassle-free.

I was expecting lots of faff a messing but I couldn’t have been more wrong. They booked to arrange collection. Turned up when they said. Took the car. Paid the money shortly afterwards. Sent certificate of destruction later on.

AMAZING!

Very kind and polite. Helped so much and made it very easy with a contactless pickup which worked around my job. Recommended to my sister who will also use this service soon.

Great service. They did what they said they would do.

They did everything they said they would do. No messing with the price. The driver even collected the car from a busy dual-carriageway and handled the situation safely and professionally. Would recommend!

Expectations fully met.

Excellent service with not one complication. Ross came to pick up car at the exact time and was so informative. The next day my payment was in my account and a week later I received a cheque from DVLA refunding my road tax. Well impressed and grateful.

Does What it Says on the Tin

CarTakeBack does what it says on the tin. I needed my car gone, contacted CarTakeBack and the operation was swift and hassle free. My car was collected and the money was in the bank that very morning. Lovely staff too.

Easy arrangement

Straight forward, didn’t need to view the vehicle and organised a local recycler to collect it. Payment was in my bank from the local recycler same day as collection.

Perfect solution

I sold my car to car take back. I rang in the afternoon and they come on the same day which was really good. The man that came to my house was so nice, he explained everything that I needed to do with D. V. A. I was paid the same day to. Bolton

4 stars

Excellent Service

The process was very smooth and quickly organised. The vehicle was picked up at the time arranged and the driver could not have been more helpful. We were kept up to date each step of the way. The certificate arrived quickly afterwards. Would recommend and use again.

Excellent service. Don't hesitate to use.

Everything was straight forward the staff are very helpful and answered all my questions. I normally just trade my car in so have never had to deal with DVLA. Their guide to completing the online form was excellent.
