★★★★★
“Dealt with Stephen on the sale of a couple of vehicles this year who provided a comprehensive end-to-end service — advice, valuation, vehicle prep and sale.
Extremely quick remittance too. Very thoroughly recommend.”

★★★★★
“We used EAMA to sell our mother’s VW Golf, which although 24 years old, had only covered 49,000 miles.
A well known internet car buying service offered £450 - the car sold at EAMA’s Classic and Retro Auction for £1750. A great result!”
– Mark
★★★★★
“Very pleased with service I received, the process was explained in great detail, and it was as simple as filling out an entry form, dropping the car off and they did the rest. It was effortless and such a smooth transition from my first email to get an evaluation to it being sold. Definitely would recommend to anyone trying to sell your vehicle.”

Are valuations free?

It’s important to remember that many car-buying sites will give you a valuation on what they want to buy your vehicle for. We offer a realistic guide on what your vehicle is worth.
Can I set a Reserve on my vehicle?

If your vehicle doesn't quite make its Reserve, we'll give you a call and advise you on your best options moving forward.
