There are a lot of different ways to get extra cash out of your Citroen if you are thinking about selling. By taking just a few simple steps you will be able to squeeze a little extra money out of the buyer, giving yourself a better deal.

What’s my Citroen Worth?

Firstly, it’s heavily recommended that you clean your car properly. This will give buyers a good first impression and won’t give them an excuse to try to haggle down the overall price. Some people even choose to take their cars to a professional valet to get a ‘new car’ feeling.

Secondly, make sure that the Citroen doesn’t need any simple repairs. Things like scratches, dents and rust can drastically reduce the overall value of the car. If you can’t sort out these issues yourself, it could be worth taking the car into a garage for a clean up and service.

Thirdly, consider renewing the tax and MOT on the car. This is one of the main things people tend to look at when they are buying a second hand car. By having time left on the tax and MOT, buyers will realise that the vehicle is roadworthy. These steps will all increase your Citroen’s overall value and will allow you to squeeze a little more cash out of the buyer.

How Can I Sell my Citroen?

There are various options that a seller could take when trying to sell a Citroen. The easiest way is to part exchange the vehicle for another car. This method involves taking the car to a dealer and getting them to take it off your hands for a reduced price on a new car. Although this approach is very convenient, it doesn’t always give sellers the best value for money.

Selling a car privately is another option. This means that the seller will have to advertise the car in classified ads. It’s recommended that you should always take cash with this option. If the buyer can only pay with a cheque, you should always wait for the money to clear in the bank before handing over the car.
