Step 1
Evaluate the profitability of your plans. Study the average market value of your model and car brand using the Internet, paying attention to the equipment and defects of your sample, due to which the price of the car can vary significantly. If your old car has any value for collectors, consider this too. In the event that you have a pile of scrap metal in your garage or in the yard rather than a car, but everything is in order with its documents, then you should seriously think about participating in the recycling program for old cars. Of course, this option is only acceptable if your plans include buying another car and your budget allows you to consider buying a new car.
Step 2
Remove the vehicle from the register. If, nevertheless, you are determined to sell your old car, then make sure that the new owner does not have any problems with the traffic police. The obvious legal purity of the future transaction will significantly affect the number of potential buyers.
If your vehicle is not on the move, it does not have a technical inspection pass or insurance, then it is best to travel to the traffic police and back either with the help of a tow truck or with the support of a friend who will take you to the inspection and home in tow. This option is only acceptable if your old car has functional brakes and alarms. Savings are great, but you need to think about safety first.
Step 3
Post ads for the sale. Any communication channels with a potential buyer will be useful here. If you are a lucky owner of retro classics, post an announcement on the auto antique lovers forum. In all other cases, you will have at your disposal popular online auctions, electronic message boards, car forums and print publications, which, despite the rapid development of high technology, still remain an important source of information for many people.
Step 4
If you find a buyer for your old car, then make a deal by yourself drawing up a purchase and sale agreement in a simple written form, or use the services of a thrift store. If, nevertheless, there is no buyer, and you are planning to buy a new car, try using the services of a car dealership. At the moment, almost any dealer can buy out an old car, offering for it, however, a fairly low price, or accept it as a set-off for buying a new car. In the latter case, its value will be significantly higher, since the car dealership will immediately receive a buyer for its product. Call the dealers in your city and find out what they can offer you.
Step 5
In the event that it was not possible to sell your old car, and you do not plan to buy a new one, then there is only one way to get rid of it - to hand over the car to the scrap as scrap metal. Of course, this will not bring a fabulous profit, and you will have to spend money on its delivery to the scrap collection point, but let your soul be warmed by the realization that you have done a very good deed for the environment by sending your old car for recycling.
