What drivers and fleets actually say.

I tried an online instant-quote site first. The number was disappointing. SellYourCab came back the next afternoon with a much stronger figure. Money in my account by Friday lunch. No hassle on the V5C either, they did the lot.

I had outstanding finance and was anxious about how that would work. They settled it direct with the lender and paid me the difference on the day. Did not have to chase anyone. First time selling a car has been this calm.

We have used auction houses for years. This was the first time we got a written offer on the full list inside 24 hours. Collection across three sites in two days. The valuation held to the penny.

Plate had lapsed and the cab had been sitting on the drive for six months. I thought it was scrap. They paid £2,400, collected for free, and even handed back my V5C copy for my records.

Twenty-two years on the cabs. Wanted to retire without the usual private-sale circus. The valuer understood the conversion costs and priced it fairly. Cheque on the day, kettle on by 4pm.

We needed everything off the books before quarter end. They handled documentation, multi-site collection, and the trust transfer paperwork. Calmest fleet disposal I have managed.
