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. We collect from an agreed location, or you drop off at our Bethnal Green HQ, at a time arranged with you. Paid in full by bank transfer before your vehicle leaves.
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, paid in full by bank transfer before your vehicle leaves, no fees for sellers.

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.
