We Buy Cars

Because we are a repair shop with close to seventy years of hands-on experience, we evaluate vehicles differently than a typical dealer or online buyer. We look at the whole picture, and that perspective often works in your favor.

Mileage and overall condition. Lower mileage generally means higher value, but condition matters just as much. A well-maintained 200,000-mile Mercedes turbodiesel can be worth more than a neglected car with half the miles. We look at paint, interior, undercarriage, and overall presentation.

Service history. A documented maintenance history adds real value. If you have kept records of oil changes, timing chain services, transmission flushes, or any major work, bring them along. Cars with verifiable service records from reputable shops command stronger offers because they represent lower risk and higher long-term reliability.

Mechanical soundness. Our mechanics inspect the engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, and electrical systems. A car that runs well and needs minimal work will naturally command a better offer. Even if your vehicle needs some repairs, we factor in what we can handle in-house, which often means we can still make a competitive offer where others might pass.

Market demand. Certain models are always in demand. We track current market values for European and foreign vehicles and factor that into every offer. If your car is a sought-after model, that demand is reflected in our price.
