Vauxhall Insignia specialist
The Vauxhall Insignia saloon and Sports Tourer estate, valued by a real person who knows the car. Offer in two hours, paid the same day.

The short answer
Four things shape your Insignia offer: body style, engine and emissions, licence status, and condition. The Sports Tourer estate carries the airport and chauffeur premium, while the hatch and saloon are the private-hire workhorses. A Euro 6 Mk2 (2017 onward) is ULEZ-compliant and trades stronger, but a pre-2015 diesel Mk1 is not scrap: it has real out-of-London PHV and continental export demand, and we price for those destinations rather than knock money off the way a generalist instant-quote buyer would. A live private-hire plate from Coventry, Wolverhampton, Birmingham or any council adds licensed-trade demand. Private-hire and retired chauffeur Insignias routinely run 180,000 to 280,000 miles, which is normal-shape, so service history matters more than the odometer. A real valuer checks your reg by hand and sends a firm offer within 2 hours. Free UK collection, same-day payment, no buyer fees.
What we look for
Hatch, saloon and Sports Tourer estate all bought. The estate carries the airport and chauffeur premium; hatch and saloon are the private-hire workhorses.
Mk1 2.0 CDTi diesel is the private-hire mainstay; Mk2 1.6 BiTurbo diesel and 1.5 petrol both bought. Euro 6 cars are ULEZ-compliant; older diesels priced for export.
A live private-hire plate from any UK council adds licensed-trade premium, especially the West Midlands and North-East. Lapsed plates fine.
Private-hire Insignias routinely cover 180,000 to 280,000 miles. We price on body, engine and plate status, not a mileage cap.
Generation breakdown
The PHV mainstay through the 2010s. 2.0 CDTi diesel in 130, 160, 195 bhp tunes. Hatch / saloon / Sports Tourer. Not ULEZ-compliant before 2015 (Euro 5). Strong export + out-of-London trade demand.
Typical condition: 180,000-300,000 miles. Most active PHV stock; chauffeur fleet retirement starting.
All-new platform, lighter, refreshed cabin. 1.6 BiTurbo diesel + 1.5 petrol. Euro 6 from launch so ULEZ-compliant. Discontinued 2022, supply of low-mileage examples is now finite.
Typical condition: 80,000-180,000 miles. Premium PHV stock + low-mileage chauffeur retirement.
Common questions
Yes. A retired chauffeur Insignia at 250,000 motorway miles is a normal sale. We price on body condition + service history + remaining ULEZ life, not an algorithmic cap. Chauffeur paperwork (service intervals + driver log) shapes the offer up.
Yes, a live PHV plate from Coventry, Wolverhampton, Birmingham or any council adds licensed-trade demand. If you're upgrading within the trade, the plate value stays in your favour.
No. Pre-2015 diesel Insignias have strong out-of-London PHV + continental export demand. We price for those destinations rather than treat the vehicle as scrap. Generalist instant-quote buyers tend to drop 30-40% on non-compliant; we don't.
We settle the outstanding balance direct with your lender and pay you the equity left. Bring the settlement letter on collection day. No fees, no penalty for selling under finance.
