We Buy Cars in Addiscombe, Croydon
We buy vehicles across Addiscombe every week, often ones other buyers will not touch. Payment goes to you before the car is loaded, and we handle the DVLA notification so you are not left liable.
If a vehicle in Addiscombe has stopped being worth repairing, we will buy it from you. Engine and gearbox failures, accident damage, MOT failures with a big bill attached, cars that have sat on the drive for years — all of it.
Collection from anywhere in Addiscombe
We collect from every street in CR0 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Addiscombe is about 12.8 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Addiscombe Road (A222) or Lower Addiscombe Road, so same-day and next-day collections are normally easy to arrange. The vehicle does not need to run — non-runners, no-key vehicles and flat tyres are all fine.

Around Addiscombe: roads, landmarks and stations
Most Addiscombe collections are from a driveway or the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks and private land — anywhere from Ashburton Park to the roads off Addiscombe Road (A222). No keys, flat tyres or seized brakes are not a problem.
If you stop on Addiscombe Road (the A222), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Ashburton Park, Addiscombe Railway Park and Lloyd Park, or the stations at Addiscombe tram stop and East Croydon. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
Fixed price, agreed before we start
You will know the cost before we commit to anything. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Once we have agreed a figure, that is what you pay — nothing is added afterwards. We take card and bank transfer.

We Buy Cars in Addiscombe — FAQs
How do you work out the price for my car?
From the make, model, age, mileage and what is wrong with it. Give us the registration and an honest description and we will give you a price on the phone. If the car matches the description, that is what we pay.
How quickly can you reach me in Addiscombe?
Addiscombe is about 12.8 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Addiscombe Road (A222) and Lower Addiscombe Road. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
Do you buy cars that do not run?
Yes — non-runners, engine and gearbox failures, flood damage, no keys, flat tyres. That is most of what we buy.
Do you cover all of CR0?
Yes — every street in CR0, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of East Croydon, Croydon, Selhurst and Shirley, Croydon, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
How and when do I get paid?
By bank transfer before we load the car, so you never hand it over unpaid.
My car won't start at Addiscombe tram stop station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Addiscombe, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
What paperwork do I need?
Ideally the V5C logbook and proof of ID. We notify the DVLA of the sale for you, so you are no longer responsible for the vehicle.
I have broken down on Addiscombe Road — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Is collection really free?
Yes. We collect with our own truck at no charge, from a driveway, the street, a garage or a car park.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Addiscombe?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Addiscombe, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
