Sell my LHD: common questions
Can I sell a car registered in France without registering it in the UK?
Yes. Sell it to us on its French plates. We'll tell you exactly which documents we need and handle the UK side.
What paperwork do I need for a French car?
The original registration document issued in France, proof that you own the car and photo ID. Missing something? Ask anyway, we can often still help.
Do you collect French cars anywhere in the UK?
Yes. Free collection across London, Oxford, the Home Counties and all major UK cities, at a time that suits you.
Is the car still in France?
No problem. As well as the UK, we can collect from mainland Europe, including France. Tell us where it is and we'll arrange it.
How will I be paid?
By bank transfer while our driver is with you, usually cleared in minutes. You never release the car until the money is in your account.
