We Buy Cars in Tooting, Wandsworth
Selling a car that does not run is usually the hardest part. For sellers in Tooting we make it simple: tell us the registration and what is wrong, we give you a price on the phone, and we collect it with our own truck free of charge.
We buy vehicles across Tooting 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 Tooting
We collect from every street in SW17 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Tooting is about 15.2 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Tooting High Street (A24) or Mitcham 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.

Local knowledge of Tooting
Most Tooting collections are from a driveway or the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks and private land — anywhere from Tooting Market to the roads off Tooting High Street (A24). No keys, flat tyres or seized brakes are not a problem.
If you stop on Tooting High Street (the A24), 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 — Tooting Market, Broadway Market, St George's Hospital and Tooting Broadway, or the stations at Tooting Broadway and Tooting — and we will find you. You can also drop us a pin from your phone's map app.
Honest pricing in Tooting
Every job in Tooting 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 Tooting — 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 Tooting?
Tooting is about 15.2 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 Tooting High Street (A24) and Mitcham 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 SW17?
Yes — every street in SW17, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Tooting Bec, Colliers Wood, Balham and South Wimbledon, 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 Tooting Broadway station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Tooting, 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 Tooting High Street — 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 Tooting?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Tooting, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
