We Buy Cars in Norbury, Croydon
If a vehicle in Norbury 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 Norbury 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.
We come to you in Norbury
Our own truck does the collection in Norbury, so there is no courier and no third party involved.

The vehicle does not need to run — non-runners, no-key vehicles and flat tyres are all fine.

Local knowledge of Norbury
Most Norbury collections are from a driveway or the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks and private land — anywhere from Norbury Park to the roads off London Road (A23). No keys, flat tyres or seized brakes are not a problem.
If you stop on London Road (the A23), 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.
Landmarks we use to find people in Norbury include Norbury Park, Norbury Hall and Norwood Grove, and Norbury station. If you are lost, tell us what you can see and we will work it out together.
What it costs in Norbury
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 Norbury — 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 Norbury?
Norbury is about 13.7 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 London Road (A23) and Norbury Avenue. 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 SW16?
Yes — every street in SW16, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Streatham, Thornton Heath, Upper Norwood and West Norwood, 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 Norbury station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Norbury, 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 London 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 Norbury?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Norbury, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
