Yes, you can sell your financed car, with Motorway if it’s on a Hire Purchase (HP) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement.
You don’t have to have paid off all of the finance already; but subject to your contract, there may be a minimum repayment before you have the right to sell.
If you’re ready to sell on finance, the first step is to get a settlement letter with the ‘settlement figure’ from your lender, and get a car valuation. Read more in our guide to selling your financed car.
Trading in, or part-exchanging a car, has traditionally been seen as an easy solution – you get rid of your outgoing car, in exchange for a discount on your next one. You don’t have to advertise your car first, deal with strangers on your doorstep, or take anyone on test drives. However, part exchange is often not the way to get the best price. You may be able to make more by selling it outright, such as with Motorway.
Some car finance contracts encourage part-exchanging at a certain point, especially Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) finance deals. However, what you might not know is that you actually have the right to sell your financed car, as an alternative to part-exchanging.
For more information, read our guide on how to part exchange a financed car.
