If you haven’t been through the process of selling a car before, it can feel a bit daunting and you might be unclear on where to start. 

Do you try selling your car privately and deal with strangers visiting your home and haggling?

Or do you go with a car buying service, knowing that the high initial valuations are likely to plummet after your car has been inspected at your Northampton home? 

You might even be thinking about part-exchanging your car as the simplest option – but you know that this often means accepting a much lower price that you deserve. 

Imagine there was a way of effortlessly selling your car in Northampton at a fair and competitive price – without dealing with tyre kickers, hagglers, frustrating knockdowns in prices, or settling for a lower part-exchange value. 

That’s what we offer at Flipit. 

Yes, we’re a car buying service, but with a big difference. Instead of keeping you guessing about the price we’re willing to pay, we collect all the necessary information before providing our quote. This way, we provide you with an accurate, competitive offer that we fully intend to honour, reducing the possibility of any unwelcome price “knockdowns” on collection day.

Our team covers all of Northamptonshire, including Kettering, Corby, Wellingborough, Towcester and Daventry – so whether you’re in the town of Northampton or in the surrounding areas, we’re able to provide you with an easy way to sell your car.

Planning to use Northampton’s public transport network? 

There’s a lot to be said for using public transport – it’s a better choice for the environment and can often be more cost effective than the fuel, parking charges and insurance associated with driving.

Looking for a new car to suit changing circumstances?

Maybe you’re selling a diesel car that was great for your long motorway commutes, but now you’ve changed jobs you need something more suitable for driving around the city

Whatever your motivations, there are a large number of used car supermarkets and car dealerships in the Northampton area – so once you’ve got your deposit from selling your car to Flipit, there’s plenty of options for you to find the perfect new vehicle. 

Planning to embrace an electric vehicle?

With the sale of new petrol and diesel cars set to come to an end in 2030, we’re currently seeing a rapid take up of electric vehicles on UK roads. Northampton is no exception, with more than 3,247 fully electric vehicles being registered in the town in 2021. 

If you’re selling your car to join the rising number of electric vehicle owners, you might find Chargemap’s list of public EV charging stations in Northampton useful.

While the town might not currently have as many charging points as other UK towns and cities, Northampton has seen a recent £3.25 million grant from the Government to upgrade its electric vehicle infrastructure.
