Why sell on Autoideal?

Everything you need to sell your car confidently – in one place.

Reach thousands of buyers

Your listing goes live to an audience of active, verified buyers across the UK – giving your car maximum exposure from day one.

Pay only after approval

There's no upfront cost. A listing fee is charged only after your application has been reviewed and approved.

Home delivery available

We can arrange delivery of your sold vehicle directly to the buyer anywhere in the UK – no hassle for you.

Get a fair price

Our fair price indicators help buyers understand market value, so you're more likely to attract offers close to your asking price.

Your car must pass a vehicle check before it can be listed

Before your listing goes live, we run an instant HPI check using your registration number and current mileage. This check confirms the vehicle's history and that it meets our listing criteria.

  • Instant HPI check using your registration number
  • Outstanding finance, write-off and stolen checks included
  • If the check is clear, your listing continues automatically – no waiting

Caravans, farm and plant machinery and electric bikes are not registered with the DVLA, so there is no registration check to run on them: you enter their details yourself.
