Called them about my old car that failed its MOT and they collected it the same afternoon. Fair price, no messing about, and payment was instant.
My car wouldn't start and I had no idea what to do with it. They sorted the recovery and paid me on the spot — didn't even need the logbook.
Crashed my car and just wanted it gone. They picked it up the next day, no hassle, and gave me a better price than two other places I called.

In most cases we can arrange same-day or next-day collection across Manchester and the surrounding areas, depending on your location and availability.
No V5? No problem. We can still collect and pay for your vehicle even if you don't have the logbook — just get in touch and we'll walk you through it.
