AA Cars research shares that consumers are 3x more likely to buy used vehicles than new ones. But it's true that whether you want to upgrade your ride or get rid of it, selling your car can be a challenging task. To follow along with this trend, we have summarised some of the best tips when considering selling your car.

 

1. Ensure your Car is Sellable

The better the car looks overall, the more sellable it is. If you plan to sell your car, it's essential to ensure it's in a sellable condition. Ensure it's clean, well-maintained, and free from mechanical issues.

If you don’t want to spend time and money to fix your car, find a vehicle dealer that will buy your car from you, like Brazen Auto. We buy all types of vehicles whether they are running or not.

2. Clean and Prepare your Car

First impressions matter, so making your car look presentable and clean is essential. Wash your vehicle, vacuum the interior, and clean the windows. First impressions are crucial when selling a car, so thoroughly clean the interior and exterior.

If your car is damaged in any way, cleaning the vehicle automatically makes the car more aesthetically appealing.

3. Be Honest About Your Car's Condition

When writing your car's description, be honest about its condition. Mention any repairs that have been done, as well as any issues or defects.

Get the vehicle inspected and evaluated by Brazen Auto, regardless of the condition of the vehicle. Once we have inspected the vehicle, and we are interested in buying the vehicle from you, we will make you an offer and should you accept, we will facilitate a same-day payment.

4. Collect all of the Paperwork

Before selling your car, ensure you have all the necessary paperwork. When selling your car, you must notify the registering authority using the NCO form.

Below are the documents needed for the sale:

  • A Roadworthy Certificate (RWC)
  • Original proof of ownership (RC1 Certificate/Natis)
  • A sales agreement
  • Receipt of the sale price, date, and car details
  • If you’re a company, we would need a copy of the original BRNC Certificate
    • Proxy ID
  • If you are a foreigner, we would need a copy of your traffic register document, as well as your work permit and a valid passport.

5. Provide as Many Details as Possible

When selling your car, the more information you provide, the more likely buyers will be interested in purchasing your car. Provide pictures, vehicle history, damage or repair information, and additional features or upgrades that have been made to the car.

  • Pictures of the car

When selling your car, put yourself in the shoes of the buyer. A buyer will only buy from you if you have all the proof that he needs to make an informed decision. Ensure the pictures are taken from multiple angles in good lighting to prove your point.

  • Damages

Speaking of pictures, it's true that whatever damage your car has will be visible to the buyer. Try to be as open about the damage as possible.

  • Vehicle History

All buyers want to make sure that their seller is 100% transparent. Buyers want to know whether upgrades or changes have been made, whether it has any damage and if it has a service history and what exactly that history is.
