If you are thinking, “How do I sell my car without the hassle?”, you are in the right place. At Newbarn Car Sales, we buy quality used cars and make the process simple for local drivers across Bognor Regis and the surrounding West Sussex area. We’ve been part of the local motoring community for over 26 years and we’re proud of our background as a former KIA main dealer.
You will find us on Aldwick Road, just moments from the beach. You can visit us in person and speak directly with our team instead of dealing with an anonymous online service. Our address is 65 Aldwick Road, Aldwick, Bognor Regis, West Sussex, PO21 2NW.
Why sell your car to a local Bognor Regis dealer?
Selling privately often means taking photos, answering messages, arranging viewings and test drives, and negotiating with strangers. This process can take time and feel uncertain.
Selling to a trusted local dealer is often a calmer and more reliable option. If you want a clear process, honest communication and a straightforward sale, working with an established dealership can make things easier.
At Newbarn Car Sales, we actively look for used vehicles. We aim to make the process smooth from your first enquiry through to the final handover.
How our vehicle valuation works
The quickest way to begin is to complete the vehicle valuation form at the bottom of this page. The form gives us the key information we need to provide a fair and accurate estimate.
You will be asked for your registration number and mileage, along with details such as make, model, engine, fuel type and gearbox - so it’s useful to have these details to hand. We also ask about the number of previous owners, MOT expiry date and service history.
There is space to add notes about your vehicle’s condition and background. You can tell us if it has been used as a taxi, if animals have been transported, or if the vehicle has been smoked in. Honest details help us give you the most accurate valuation.
You can upload up to 10 images if you wish. Clear photos of the exterior, interior, dashboard and tyres allow us to assess the vehicle more precisely.
Once we receive your information, a member of our team will contact you to discuss the next steps.
Next steps: inspection, offer and collection
All valuations are based on the information provided and the vehicle’s actual condition. After we inspect the car, we confirm a final offer.
If you prefer not to travel, we can agree a suitable time and place to collect your vehicle. This makes the process even more convenient if you are busy or unable to visit us.
If you are planning to change your vehicle, you can also choose to part exchange against one of our cars in stock.
What affects the value of your car?
Every vehicle is different, but condition and overall presentation play a major role in value. Buyers want a car that is easy to own, maintain and enjoy.
To help us assess your vehicle accurately, provide clear details about the condition inside and out, the mileage, service history and remaining MOT. Please mention any warning lights, damage or previous repairs. Open and accurate information helps avoid delays later in the process.
If your vehicle has optional extras, recently fitted tyres or brakes, or recent maintenance work, include this in the additional details section. A quick clean and removing personal belongings can also make inspection easier and present the car in its best light.
Paperwork and handy tips for selling your car
When you sell a vehicle, there are a few important administrative steps to complete. GOV.UK explains that you must inform the DVLA when you sell or transfer a vehicle. Once the DVLA is notified, vehicle tax is cancelled.
If there are full months of tax remaining, you will usually receive a refund after cancellation.
If your vehicle has a private registration plate, you may need to remove or retain it before the sale. GOV.UK provides clear guidance on how to do this.
If you are unsure about any paperwork, our team will guide you through the process and answer your questions.
Selling a car with outstanding finance
If your car is on finance, such as HP or PCP, you can still sell it. The key step is to obtain a settlement figure from your finance provider and compare this with your valuation.
Industry guidance confirms that selling a car with outstanding finance is possible, but the finance must be settled correctly. If your vehicle is on finance, let us know when you complete the form or when we speak. We will explain the next steps and discuss the best way forward.
