Sell My Damaged Car Or Van

Sell My Broken Car Or Van

A car can be classified as damaged or broken for a variety of reasons. The three most common reasons are:
Bodywork
Engine / Parts
Interior.
Because it is usually an element that is damaged and not the entirety of the car, it means that the vehicle can often be sold as salvage and the car’s parts will be used to help repair other vehicles. For example, if you had two of the same cars in terms of make, year and model but one of them had a damaged engine and was a non-starter and one of them had a smash-damaged shell, a specialist would be able to use elements of each car to create one working vehicle. It can be time-consuming and expensive to repair a damaged car, and most people are unable to do it themselves. This is why vehicles that require a certain level of work, are often sold on as salvage vehicles. And there, we help you to sell your damaged car for cash.

    Damage Levels Of Vehicles

    Selling a broken or damaged car online can be a confusing time and you may find yourself wondering whether people will want it, especially if you need to sell an MOT Failure car , a Non-Runner car or an Insurance Write-Off car, but salvage categories have made it easier for people to understand the differences between broken and damaged vehicles.
    The salvage categories used to be classified as Category: A, B, C or D. However, the Association of British Insurers (ABI) recently re-categorised these to make them easier for the general public to understand when looking into a vehicle’s history. As the following categories will be used:

    Category A

    Strictly scrap only. The vehicle will have sustained serious structural damage and is deemed unsafe to be repaired.

    Category B

    Category B is given to vehicles which are not suitable to be repaired, however some of the vehicle’s parts may be used elsewhere.

    Category S

    The car has sustained minor to no structural damage. Until it’s repaired and inspected by authorised garages, it is not safe to drive on the road

    Category N

    Vehicles graded N have received no damage to the core structure of the vehicle. Usually the damage is purely cosmetic or to the electrical system which wasn’t economical to repair.

    Expectations When Selling Faulty Cars

    Price quotations for damaged and broken cars will vary on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis due to individual differences. Selling a damaged car can be challenging, which is why it is essential that you state its condition as accurately as possible, as this will allow us to give you a more accurate quote. Selling a salvaged car can seem a little disheartening after paying a lot for it, therefore it’s important to remember that you’re selling damaged goods.
    In many cases, damage such as an engine failure, an uninsured accident, or an MOT failure can deem a vehicle as uneconomical to repair. Scrap My Car Service specialises in damaged and broken vehicles, which means that just because part of your car has shattered doesn’t mean your hopes have to be, because due to our industry knowledge we are able to offer incredibly competitive prices. Please note that when it comes to selling damaged cars, vehicles that have been unrepaired tend to achieve higher quotes. This is because the quality or safety of vehicles that have been self-repaired cannot be guaranteed.
