Selling My Car During a Pandemic

Jul 2021

We have been facing a global health crisis for nearly two years now but that doesn’t change the fact that there are still day-to-day tasks that need to be completed. One of the tasks you might have at the top of your to-do list is to “sell my car”. It might seem like an overwhelming task but at Citton Cars, not only do we buy used cars, we give you an accurate market-related price for your used car.

There are many reasons you may want to sell your car during a pandemic:

• You are potentially strapped for cash.
• The pandemic has disrupted your immediate plans.
• You simply want to buy a new car for yourself.

Whatever the reason may be, selling a car during a pandemic can be exceptionally difficult and overwhelming. How do you find the right buyer? Will you get your preferred price?

Luckily, when you approach the team at Citton Cars, we can supply you with an estimate that is purely based on the value of your car.  

At Citton Cars, we guarantee that we can beat any written offer you may receive for your car, pandemic or no pandemic! Simply register your car on our website and book it for a speedy, yet thorough valuation.

We remain open throughout the various lockdown levels so you can bring your car into one of our Pretoria car dealerships, located in Gezina or Menlyn, to receive a thorough valuation. Once you are happy with our offer, we guarantee a 100% risk-free sale. All you have to do is follow four simple steps:

Gather the necessary documentation

To sell your car with us, we will need proof of identity, ownership documents, and registration papers. Without these documents, we will be unable to process the sale.

Complete the online form

The online form requires you to fill in basic information about the car, including the make, model, fuel type, transmission, and condition. We will then require information like your name and cellphone number and additional information about your needs, like when you want to sell the car and what your price estimation is. You can include a photo of the car for a more accurate online valuation.

When selling your car to Citton Cars it is important to be aware of our selling criteria:

• The car shouldn’t be older than 8 years.
• The car’s kilometre reading should be less than 130 000 km.
• The car must be accident-free and without any damage.

At Citton Cars, we pride ourselves on the quality of our used cars and that’s why we want to ensure the best used cars available. Even if you are in a pinch during this pandemic, we are more than happy to do business with you, should you meet the requirements.

Visit our showroom

You can get an accurate and expert valuation that is valid for 7 days. Once you have the valuation, we like to close our deals as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Get your money

The final and most exciting step: once you have provided the necessary information and received the valuation, it is time to close the deal. We buy quickly and pay instantly.

Citton Cars also facilitates private-to-private sales to ensure that all parties are safely and smoothly closing a deal without any risks or unpleasant surprises.

So, don’t sleep on it. Check “sell my car” off your to-do list and walk out of Citton Cars with money in your pocket. We do immediate transfers, so you don’t have to worry about any delays.

We look forward to seeing you!
