Buying and selling Vehicles in Oxshott and Stoke D'Abernon, Kingston upon Thames

Buying or selling vehicles on Adsquare in Oxshott and Stoke D'Abernon, Kingston upon Thames? A little care up front saves a lot of hassle later.

Most private vehicle sales go smoothly, and a few minutes of checking protects both sides. Sellers benefit just as much as buyers from being upfront about a vehicle's history and condition - it avoids disputes later and tends to close a sale faster, not slower.

• Run an HPI or similar vehicle history check to rule out outstanding finance or write-offs.
• Check the MOT history online (free on GOV.UK) against the mileage shown to spot inconsistencies.
• Meet in a well-lit, public place for cash exchanges, or use a bank transfer with the seller present.
• Get anything agreed verbally - price, included extras, condition - confirmed in writing before you pay.
