Can I sell my van on finance?

You can’t sell a van on outstanding finance. Before you sell your van, you’ll need to contact the finance company and ask for a settlement figure. You’ll need to pay this in full, plus any early repayment and admin fees.

How to sell your van, fast

Take great photos

It may sound obvious - but taking good-quality photos can have a huge impact on the time it takes to sell your van. Adverts with good photos sell much faster.

Keep it snappy

Keep your vehicle description short and simple. Call out optional extras that other similar vans may not have. And don’t forget to mention full-service history if you have it.

Be honest

It's important that your vehicle description is accurate. If your van has a small scratch on it – be honest about it. It'll save time with needless viewings if buyers are aware of any faults from the get-go.
