How we’re different
Unlike other car buying services, at each of our locations is an independent car trader.
Simply put, we’ve found working with the right traders ensures the best price and experience for our customers, as they’re both more familiar with the market itself and more motivated to buy.
Each of our Approved Traders are cherry-picked individuals that closely match our brand’s values.
What causes my smart to lose value?
Cars aren’t like fine wines; they don’t age well, and you don’t want smoky tones.
The three main reasons why your smart is probably losing value are:
- Age
- Mileage
- Condition
The older your car is, the less it might be worth. Age is measured in the plates, which change every March and September.
Mileage correlates with age and is essentially how many miles your beloved smart has travelled on the road. This is also taken into account in your smart’s value.
The condition of your car also has a huge impact. If you’ve only got a few signs of wear and tear compared to a massive dent and smashed headlamps, you’ll get a bit more for your smart.

Why should I sell my smart?
Nothing lasts forever, including cars. The truth is that cars naturally depreciate over time. Suppose you’ve given your smart some tender loving care over the years. In that case, you may have mitigated some of the issues that affect your smart’s performance. The value of your smart ultimately hinges on whether you’ve looked after it and what its maintenance and life history look like.
Whilst you might love the old banger, it might be a good idea to trade it in before it loses too much value and treat yourself to an upgraded smart model.

How do I get the best price for my smart?
There are a number of ways to get the best price for your smart. It all comes down to how you’ve looked after your good old smart.
If you’ve…
- Serviced it regularly
- Not worn out the clutch by being a bad-boy racer
- Avoided using the bumper
- Time your sale – before a new plate change in March and September, keep convertibles for the summer squad
…you’re on to a winner.

I would definitely recommend The Car Buying Shop for a no hassle and easy experience.
