Selling an Older Car (8 Years+): Why Consignment is Better Than Auction or Scrap
1. Avoiding the Auction Trap
Auctions often undervalue older cars, especially if they have high mileage. Consignment allows us to showcase the car’s service history and appeal to a specific retail buyer, not a wholesale bidder.
2. Focus on Service History, Not Just Age
For older cars, **a complete service record (rekod servis)** is priceless. We use your meticulous maintenance history as a key selling point to justify a higher price.
3. Buyer Financing for Older Vehicles
Older cars often require specific financing arrangements. We work with specialized financing institutions that approve loans for older vehicles, making your car accessible to more buyers than a private sale could.
4. Transparency in Preparation
We recommend small, targeted repairs that significantly increase selling price. We agree on these upfront, ensuring your investment is efficient and targeted for maximum return.
