Value My Car

Get an instant, accurate valuation for your vehicle

WheelsAI gives a free UK car valuation by registration in under 60 seconds. Enter your reg plate and mileage to see private-sale, dealer-forecourt, trade and part-exchange values, derived from live UK market listings and recent sold prices. Valuations are free with a WheelsAI account — a single sign-in covers all your saved valuations and price-drop alerts. The valuation is indicative — final price depends on condition, demand and location — but it is the fastest way to anchor a realistic asking or trade-in figure.

We'll match your reg against live DVLA + UK market data — free with a WheelsAI account.

Read straight from the dashboard. Mileage swings the valuation by 4–6% per 10,000 miles, so accuracy matters.

Valuations require a free WheelsAI account. Your VRM and mileage stay with you across sign-in.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the WheelsAI valuation?

We blend multiple data sources and live UK market listings to produce a value band for your vehicle across private-sale, dealer forecourt and part-exchange scenarios. Final market price always depends on condition, demand and location.

Do I need a WheelsAI account to run a valuation?

Yes — valuations call a paid third-party data feed, so they require a free WheelsAI account. MOT history and tax checks remain no-signup. Your reg plate and mileage stay with you across sign-in, so the form pre-fills the moment you return.

How much is my car worth by reg in the UK?

Enter your registration and current mileage on this page. The result shows multiple valuation bands so you can see what your car is worth in each selling channel — private clean, private average, dealer forecourt, trade retail, trade average, part-exchange and auction.

How does part-exchange value differ from private sale?

Part-exchange (PX) value is what a dealer pays you against a new purchase — typically 10–20% below private-sale because the dealer needs margin to recondition and resell. Private sale takes longer but nets more. The valuation shows both so you can decide which trade-off fits your timeline.

What does the valuation cover?

You get multiple valuation bands — private clean, private average, dealer forecourt, trade retail, trade average, part-exchange and auction — so you can see what your car is worth in each selling channel.

Why do I need to enter my mileage?

Mileage is one of the strongest signals of depreciation. Two otherwise-identical cars with different mileages can have valuations thousands of pounds apart, so the checker asks for it up front.

Can I value my car for trade-in only?

Yes. The trade-in / part-exchange band is shown alongside the private-sale figures. Use that band as the floor when negotiating with a dealer — anything below it is a low offer.

Will WheelsAI contact me about selling?

Only if you register an account and opt in. A valuation alone does not sign you up to any newsletter or dealer contact.

Is the valuation legally binding?

No. The valuation is indicative and intended to help you price, negotiate or decide whether to sell. Any actual sale price is between you and the buyer.
