Vehicle Appraisal

As part of the service we offer to our clients here at Pike+Bambridge, we understand that you may have an existing vehicle that you wish to replace through us.

We are happy to offer an advisory service to help you secure a price for your existing vehicle. We can provide you with bids from our network of used vehicle buyers all over the country, and provide a comparison to We Buy Any Car to allow you to make an informed decision about your next step with your existing vehicle.

In order for us to help with this process, the first stage is to fill in our Online Vehicle Appraisal form below. We will do all we can to secure the best value for your current vehicle, and have added guidance notes below to help you with this.

PLEASE NOTE: Bids are normally only valid for the month in which the vehicle is appraised. If you have a long lead time for your new car, we will need to ask for updated bids 4 weeks prior to delivery of your new car.
