Frequently Asked Questions
We will make you an offer for your car regardless of whether or not you buy one of ours. There are two ways you can get an offer for your vehicle.
Visit us in person
Visit one of our locations and we will carry out a fast, free, no-obligation valuation on your car. Our team will look over your vehicle, take photographs of your car recording the mileage, the condition inside and out , including the tyre depth. The process will take about 30 minutes, and we can provide you with a printed cash offer for your car, which is valid for five days
Online
Log on to our website from your smartphone and fill in the form using our online appraisal system. The process is very quick. You just need to take six pictures of your car using your Android or Apple phone and answer a few questions regarding the mileage, condition and service history of your car. We will then get back to you in writing within 1 hour during store opening hours with an offer which is subject to inspection at one of our locations - Audi North Dublin, Audi Limerick or Audi Approved: plus Drogheda.
Factors that influence the valuations include age, condition, mileage and the current market value for the vehicle. You don't have to be buying a car from us in order to recieve a valuation. All valuations will be given in writing and are valid for five days, so you have time to decide if it's right for you.
- The Car's registration document (as well as proof of purchase if requested by us)
- The service history for the car(if any);
- The NCT certificate (if any); and
- The user manuals (if any)
Here are a few items you will need if you are selling or part-exchanging a car to us, which are needed for us to purchase the vehicle.
- A valid and current vehicle registration document. In order to confirm ownership
- A valid NCT test and all service history applicable to the vehicle
- A valid photo ID and Passport

*This information is required for a final offer to be made
If you have finance outstanding on the vehicle, we will need to contact your finance provider to get an up to date settlement figure. If your vehicle has had finance that is now settled, we need confirmation in writing from the finance company that all outstanding finance is cleared. Should the payment for the finance be more than the offer for the car, the difference is called negative equity, and this difference needs to be paid to ourselves in advance.
All offers that we make to purchase cars can only be made on our our App and website. The offer needs to be accepted together with the final inspection. We also need all paperwork, keys (we will deduct €250 from the price if only one key is provided), proof of title, and confirmation that the car has no outstanding finance. We will then ask you to sign a change of ownership form, copy of our purchase agreement to confirm that the car has not been stolen or subject to an insurance or total loss claim, all outstanding taxes have been paid and is actually your property. Payment will be made to you directly into your bank account or we can offset the payment if you are buying a car from us.
