What we buy in Manchester
We buy Manchester City Council Hackneys (the angled plate), TfL cabs that have moved north and private hire across every Greater Manchester council. Live plate, lapsed or never re-plated, we buy them all.
These run the Manchester private hire trade. Gen 3, Gen 4 and Gen 5 Prius, Corolla Hybrid hatch and Touring Sports, Auris Hybrid, we buy the lot. High mileage is normal. We price on service history and battery health, not the odometer.
We check the HV pack on every Manchester hybrid with an OBD2 diagnostic at collection. A healthy battery at 200,000 miles beats a tired one at 80,000. We price the actual condition.
Free collection across all M postcodes plus the boroughs: Bolton, Bury, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford, Wigan. 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 Manchester 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.
Sell by vehicle type
Common questions
Yes. Free collection across M1-M99 and all the Greater Manchester boroughs. We also reach the outer ring: Macclesfield, Warrington, Preston and the wider North West. We collect from an agreed location at a time arranged with you, or drop yours off at Bethnal Green E2 if you're passing through.
No. We buy high-mileage private hire Prius every week. A Toyota at 200k or 250k with a healthy battery and a consistent service record is worth real money to our trade buyers. We check the HV pack at collection with OBD2. We price on battery health, service stamps and condition, not the odometer alone.
It's a normal sale for us. We handle the logbook transfer in-house. If the cab still carries a Manchester City Council badge we'll need confirmation of surrender, and we help you sort that after collection. Either way, you are paid in full by bank transfer before your vehicle leaves.
Paid in full by bank transfer before your vehicle leaves. Once the vehicle and paperwork checks are done we send the Faster Payment, and you watch it land on your banking app before we move the vehicle. Outstanding finance settled direct with your lender the same day. No 'bank transfer in 3 to 5 days' nonsense.
