How It Works
Sell your car to Frosts
At Frosts we are happy to purchase your vehicle outright for cash or for you to use it as a Part Exchange towards the purchase of a used car or used van in stock. Our online valuation tool is free and provides you with an instant and honest valuation of your vehicle.
Selling your car privately can be time consuming, frustrating and expensive to advertise. By selling you car or van to Frosts directly, we can take the hassle and dread out of the selling process. We purchase hundreds of vehicles every year from private sellers throughout the UK, no matter what make or model car you drive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will you need to see my vehicle before purchasing it?
Close
In all instances we request to view your vehicle at your local Frosts dealership in either Chichester or Shoreham-by-Sea. This allows us to fully appraise the vehicle and road test it. In some cases, we may actually find the vehicle is worth a bit more after this.
Can I used my car towards the purchase of a used car?
Close
In short, yes you can! Once we have agreed a value, you can use your car as a part exchange towards one from our used car stock. You can either use it as a cash payment towards your next car, or as a deposit for finance agreement.
I still have outstanding finance on my car. Will you still purchase it?
Close
We often purchase vehicles with outstanding finance agreements. Although we cannot deal directly with your finance company to obtain a settlement figure, we are more than happy to help you as much as we can. Any settlement figure you provide us must be within the last 7 days.
