We pay more for cabs
Specialist buyer network for private hire, Hackney and wheelchair-accessible vans. Generic algorithms see a Prius; we see a working cab.
Reading cab specialist
Sell your Reading cab to a specialist buyer. We know the Heathrow and Gatwick corridor and pay strongly for hybrid Galaxys, 5 Series chauffeur retirees, and wheelchair-accessible V-Class vans across RG postcodes within 24 hours.
The short answer
Your Reading cab's value comes down to the model, mileage, licence status and condition, not a one-size algorithm. A real valuer reviews your reg by hand and sends a firm offer within 2 hours, priced against live Berkshire trade demand and our own recent sales of the same vehicle. Free collection, same-day bank transfer, zero buyer fees.

Sell by vehicle type
Reading FAQ
Strong for both vehicle types. Heathrow-PHV Galaxys + Vitos hold up well because of motorway-heavy mileage; commuter executive saloons (E-Class, 5-Series, A6) command a clear premium because the chauffeur trade actively looks for these. We price both at the top of their bands when the service history shows the use pattern.
Yes, free collection across RG1-RG10 plus Wokingham, Bracknell, Slough, and the wider Thames Valley commuter belt. Reading collections slot into our weekly West-route (Reading, Swindon, Bristol). Typically 24-48h after offer acceptance.
Yes, an RBC-licensed vehicle is a normal sale for us, live or lapsed plate. The payment to you is same-day on collection.
Yes, especially given Reading commuter demand has softened slightly for pre-Euro-6 diesels following London ULEZ outer-boundary effects. We price for export and out-of-Thames-Valley resale destinations, not the local commuter market, so the offer typically beats local dealer trade-in by a meaningful margin.
