# Car Valuation UK

> Car Valuation UK (carvaluationuk.co.uk) is a free UK car valuation website. Drivers enter a vehicle registration (number plate) and mileage to find out what their car is worth, with no account or sign-up. The site also offers a free MOT history check and practical guides on valuing, buying, selling and taxing cars in the UK.

Key facts:

- Audience: private car owners, sellers and buyers in the United Kingdom. Prices are in GBP and content uses UK terms (reg, MOT, V5C logbook, DVLA, VED road tax).
- Valuations cover any UK-registered car, of any make, model, age or condition. They are market-based estimates, not guaranteed offers; the final sale price depends on condition, service history, specification and how the car is sold (part-exchange, private sale or instant online offer).
- Valuation requests are completed through our partner Motorway (motorway.co.uk), which can also make an offer to buy the car.
- The MOT history check uses official DVSA MOT data: test results, expiry date, recorded mileage, advisories and defects.
- All tools are free to use.
- Founded in 2025. Contact: info@carvaluationuk.co.uk
