We Buy Cars in Battersea, Wandsworth
If a vehicle in Battersea 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.
We buy vehicles across Battersea 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.
Free collection across SW11
We collect from every street in SW11 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Battersea is about 14.7 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Battersea Park Road (A3205) or Queenstown Road (A3216), 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.

Local knowledge of Battersea
We collect sold cars from every part of Battersea, at a time that suits you. If it is somewhere awkward — a tight close, an underground car park, a garage forecourt — tell us and we will bring the right equipment.
If you stop on Battersea Park Road (the A3205), 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.
Not sure of the exact address? Give us a nearby reference point — Battersea Power Station, Battersea Park and Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, or the stations at Battersea Park, Battersea Power Station and Queenstown Road — and we will find you. You can also drop us a pin from your phone's map app.
Fixed price, agreed before we start
Every job in Battersea is priced on its own merits rather than from a list. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Tell us, and you get a fixed figure on the phone with no obligation. That figure is the price you pay. We take card and bank transfer.

We Buy Cars in Battersea — 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 Battersea?
Battersea is about 14.7 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 Battersea Park Road (A3205) and Queenstown Road (A3216). 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 SW11?
Yes — every street in SW11, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Clapham Junction, Wandsworth Town, Clapham and Fulham, 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 Battersea Park station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Battersea, 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 Battersea Park 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 Battersea?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Battersea, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
