Looking to Sell?
Maximise Your Car’s Value
Deciding how, when and where to sell takes experience. At Mitchell’s, we tap into our extensive network built up over 30 years in the industry - auctions, private sales, dealer contacts - to find the best route for your vehicle. Our aim is to achieve the finest return for you while managing the process smoothly, discreetly and efficiently.
Valuation: We conduct expert, independent appraisals, considering condition, provenance, market trends and desirability.
Auction Strategy: If auction is the best option, we’ll advise on timing, location and which house will serve your goals.
Private Sale / Dealer Placement: When discretion or control is paramount, we handle negotiations, pricing, and marketing to the right audience.
Logistics & Presentation: From photography and restoration advice to transportation, storage and final preparation, we ensure your car is shown at its best.

Inspection & Valuation: We inspect candidates rigorously (mechanical, historical, cosmetic) and assess value fairly before you commit.
Negotiation & Acquisition: Whether via auction or private sale, we negotiate on your behalf, manage paperwork, ensure authenticity, condition, and oversee handover.
Ancillary Services: Transport, insurance, storage, warranty – we pull together partners so you can focus on the joy of ownership.
