Part exchange at carverse

Part exchanging your current car is the easiest way to help pay for your new car because you’re putting some of the money from your old car towards your new one. We can often offer you more for your current car than through a private sale and it may help you to have lower monthly payments on this new car.


How part exchange works

1. Choose the car you'd like to buy from our range of high quality vehicles. To complete your purchase, either visit us at our dealership or complete your purchase from the comfort of your home.

2. Our expert team will provide you with a valuation upon inspection at our dealership. Alternatively, use our online valuation tool and provide us with some information about your car and we’ll provide a valuation instantly.

3. If you are happy with your quote, the price of your part exchange will be deducted from the overall cost of the car you are purchasing.

4. When your new car is collected/delivered from carverse, we will take your current car off your hands - a smooth switch.
