Brighton's electric taxi mandate is retiring diesel Hackneys fast. Get trade value before local prices fall further. Real offer in 2 hours, free collection across BN postcodes.
What we buy in Brighton
Brighton and Hove Council's electric taxi mandate is pushing diesel Hackneys out of the fleet. We buy retiring diesel Hackneys at trade value for export and out-of-Brighton licensing. We also buy compliant EV and hybrid Hackneys. Any plate status, we buy it.
LEVC TX electric Hackneys, Toyota Mirai hydrogen cabs, retiring diesel TX4s and private hire across the BN postcode area. Any mileage, any plate status. We check the battery on every hybrid and EV at collection with an OBD2 diagnostic.
Retired diesel Hackneys still trade for export and out-of-Brighton licensing. The council programme keeps supply steady and export buyers active. We pay trade value, typically above a local dealer, because we sell straight to those buyers.
Free collection across BN postcodes: Brighton, Hove, Lewes, Newhaven and the surrounding area. Our South Coast route runs weekly from the London HQ. Usually 24 to 48 hours after you accept.
The short answer
It comes down to the model, mileage, licence status and condition, not a computer. A real valuer checks your reg by hand and sends a firm offer within 2 hours, priced against live Brighton trade demand and what we paid for the same vehicle last week. Free collection, same-day bank transfer, no buyer fees.

Common questions
It helps, in most cases. Retired diesel Hackneys still have export and out-of-Brighton licensing demand, and we price for it. Drivers moving to EV or hydrogen Hackneys get offers that typically beat a local dealer trade-in, because we sell straight to export buyers with no forecourt taking a cut.
Yes. Free collection across BN1-BN3 plus the Lewes and Newhaven area. Our South Coast route runs weekly, and we can schedule a dedicated collection outside that window if you need it sooner.
Brighton and Hove Council needs plate-surrender confirmation from BHCC Licensing before settlement. We handle the paperwork for you after collection. Add 5 to 7 working days for the council side. Your payment is still same-day on collection.
Same day, within 90 seconds of the driver triggering the transfer. You watch it land on your banking app before the keys change hands. Outstanding finance settled direct with your lender on the day.
