VALUATION TOOL AND CAR PURCHASE Any valuation generated by the Valuation Tool (an "Online Valuation") is based on the information you tell us about your car (the "Car") and on the following general assumptions we make about your Car (the "Assumptions"): it has over 6 months MOT; it is not an import, i.e. it is a right-hand drive vehicle with UK registration plates; it has not ever been subject to an insurance write off or used for private hire, rental, driving tuition or as a police vehicle; there are no major mechanical faults with the car; it does not have a personalised registration plate, or, if the vehicle has a personalised registration plate it will remain with the Car and no value is assigned to it; it has no damage, including interior and mechanical; it has an engine which starts and it can idle on its own, i.e. it is not a "non-runner"; you have two sets of keys for the car. You have the option at the Online Valuation presentation page to amend any of the Assumptions and provide us with some further detail about your Car. The minimum Online Valuation is £50.00. An Online Valuation is not an offer by us to purchase the Car. It is simply a tool to enable you to estimate the value of your car and the price which we may be willing to pay for it. We always carry out a physical inspection of the Car before we agree to buy it. After you have received an Online Valuation, you may book an appointment for an inspection at one of our branches (an "Appointment"). If, on inspection of the Car at the Appointment, we consider that the value of the Car is affected by any aspect of its history or condition, including any unusual feature or customisation or anything which affects or limits the Assumptions we made about the Car, which was not apparent to us when we gave the Online Valuation, the price that we may be willing to pay for it following an inspection (the "Price") is likely to differ from the Online Valuation. We are not obliged to purchase any Car brought to an Appointment (in particular we reserve the right to turn you away from an Appointment if you are selling the Car for commercial purposes, e.g. in the course of a motor trade business) and neither are you obliged to sell any car brought to an Appointment. Price Guarantee Subject to our inspection of the Car (as explained further above) and any material change in the market value if your car, the Online Valuation is guaranteed for 4 days from the date and time which you receive your valuation on the Website. If there is a change in the market value of your car resulting in a reduced valuation, we will use reasonable endeavours to contact you before your Appointment to let you know the new valuation and so that you have an opportunity to cancel your Appointment if you wish to do so. Hand-over Requirements At the time of making the Purchase Contract, we will expect you to provide us with: all copies of the Car's keys you have; the Car's registration document (together with appropriate proof of purchase if requested by us); the Car's service history (if any); the Car's MOT certificate (if any); the Car's user manuals (if any); and any accessories there may be such as a locking wheel nut, radio fascia or remote controls. We will also expect you to remove any personal possessions from the Car once the Purchase Contract has been concluded. We will not be responsible for any personal items lost once the Car is in our possession. In the event that you fail to comply with these hand-over requirements, you agree that we have the right to withdraw any offer to buy the Car with immediate effect, to rescind or terminate any Purchase Contract with immediate effect, and/or to indicate a revised Price at which we will be prepared to purchase the Car. If we elect to rescind the Purchase Contract, we will return the Car to you, and you will refund the Price to us. Transaction Fees The following transaction fees apply to our purchase of a Car: There is no transaction fee applicable for cars valued below £99.99 (subject to minimum valuation of £50) A transaction fee of £49.99 is applicable for vehicles valued at £100.00 to £3,999.99 A transaction fee of £59.99 is applicable for vehicles valued at £4,000.00 to £4,999.99 Where the Price is £5,000 or more, the transaction fee is £74.99 Payment Options: Our standard payment terms are four working days after the day on which you sell the Car to us. Next Working Day Payment For an additional fee of £24.75, we can arrange for you to receive payment on the next working day after the day on which you sell the Car to us. It is possible that events beyond our control may delay payment, and if that happens we will not have any liability to you for the delay, save that we will refund the payment fee if it has been paid, or deducted from the Price, for the enhanced payment speed if the payment is not made within the timescales quoted on the invoice. Premier Payment For an additional fee of £29.75, eligible customers selling their vehicle can choose to have the payment made by Faster Payment to your account, at the point you agree to sell your vehicle to us. This payment will leave our account shortly after completion of purchase, please be aware that it may take your bank or building society up to 2 hours to process a Faster Payment. To qualify for this payment, you must be the registered keeper and have all required documentation to complete the sale. We may not be able to offer Premier Payment where further validation checks may be required. Examples include; You are settling finance (or where your finance company still has a registered financial interest) You are selling a vehicle on behalf of someone else, or for a business If HPI identified any discrepancies with the vehicle specification, or where HPI identifies any Category markers If you have owned the vehicle for a short period and we require documents to confirm this If you wish to find out more about this part of our service, please contact our Customer Service team at talktousnow@webuyanycar.com 10.
