Seller Terms & Conditions
Provisional offers subject to vehicle inspection
Version: S-2026-11-10-2 · Published:
This version applies when you agree to it. Updating this page alone does not change existing contracts, offers or completed sales.
1. Who we are and how these terms apply
1.1 SellAnyCarFast provides the platform services described in these terms (we, us, our). For questions, complaints or account support, please use Contact us.
1.2 These terms govern use of our website, seller app and related account services (Platform) to introduce sellers to professional motor traders. They create the platform-services contract between you and us. Any agreement to sell your vehicle is a separate contract between you and the trader.
1.3 These terms explain the service for a person selling a vehicle to a professional motor trader. If you are selling in the course of a business or acting for someone else, disclose that accurately. Describing yourself as a private seller does not remove duties that apply to a business sale or affect rights that the law gives another party.
1.4 Read these terms before agreeing to the service. You may save or print this dated version. Our Seller Privacy Policy explains how we use personal data; agreeing to these terms is not consent to unrelated marketing.
2. Your account and authority to sell
2.1 Give accurate account and contact details and keep them up to date. Keep your login details secure, allow only authorised access and tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorised use.
2.2 Only list a vehicle you own and are legally entitled to sell, or one for which you have the owner's proper authority. Any finance, third-party ownership or restriction must be disclosed and lawfully addressed before a transfer that would otherwise breach those rights. Do not claim that possession of documents alone proves the right to sell.
2.3 You are responsible for instructions properly given by you or your authorised representative. You are not made automatically liable for our breach or for unauthorised transactions where the law places responsibility elsewhere.
3. Accurate listings and known defects
3.1 Describe the vehicle honestly and accurately, including registration and identity, mileage and any uncertainty about it, specification, condition, service information, photographs and known defects. Disclose material known damage, relevant accident/write-off history, finance and title issues, and other information necessary to avoid giving a misleading impression.
3.2 Do not hide known faults, use misleading photographs, invent service records, disguise a business sale as a private sale or describe something as checked when it has not been checked. If you do not know an answer, say so rather than guessing.
3.3 Correct material mistakes or changes promptly and tell a trader who is considering your vehicle before an appointment or final purchase agreement. Do not remove relevant information merely because an offer has been selected. Inaccurate or misleading listings may be corrected, removed or investigated under section 12.
3.4 We do not independently inspect the vehicle, verify every listing statement or guarantee its condition, value or saleability. The trader's inspection does not excuse fraud, a misleading statement or concealment of a known defect, or remove any rights that the law gives a party.
4. Receiving and selecting provisional offers
4.1 Traders make provisional offers based on the information you provide. You may compare offers from several traders and choose which, if any, you want to pursue. You need not select the highest offer and are not obliged to select an offer at all.
4.2 Choosing Offer Selected identifies the trader with whom you wish to progress an inspection and potential purchase. It does not, by itself, create a binding vehicle sale, guarantee that the trader will buy, or guarantee the provisional price after inspection.
4.3 Offer Selected and Inspection Pending describe progress towards an inspection and potential purchase. They do not, by themselves, mean the vehicle has been sold or create a binding vehicle purchase. A status label or notification does not override the parties’ actual agreement or the law.
4.4 Respond to genuine enquiries and arrangements within a reasonable time. Do not use fabricated competing offers or misleading statements to influence a trader's decision. The trader must also make genuine, considered offers rather than an attractive price intended only to obtain a visit followed by an unjustified reduction.
4.5 Offer selection alone does not settle any reservation, exclusivity or appointment arrangements. Discuss any such arrangements expressly with the other party. Tell the other party promptly if you no longer wish to proceed. Any separate agreement and applicable legal rights remain unaffected.
5. Inspection and any revised price
5.1 The trader may inspect your vehicle before committing to buy. Arrange a suitable appointment and location together. Agree any test drive or other testing separately; selection does not itself authorise driving, dismantling or invasive testing.
5.2 If the condition materially differs from your description, the trader may explain the difference, propose a revised price or decline to proceed before a binding final purchase contract is formed. Significant undisclosed damage, a materially inaccurate mileage statement or an undisclosed finance/title issue are examples; they do not create a fixed deduction tariff.
5.3 You do not have to accept a revised price. You may ask the trader to explain the reason, decline the proposal and, before a final contract exists, decide not to proceed. Before that final contract either party may decide not to proceed, but neither party is permitted to act fraudulently, misrepresent facts or engage in other unlawful conduct.
5.4 Tell the trader promptly if you cannot attend or no longer wish to pursue an inspection. If you believe a trader used a misleading offer, invented defects or pressured you to accept less, report the facts through support. A genuine inspection-based decision not to buy is different from dishonest conduct; we cannot guarantee a particular investigation outcome.
6. When a vehicle sale becomes binding
6.1 Under this model, a vehicle purchase becomes binding after inspection, when the identified seller and trader have agreed the final purchase price and any other terms either has made a condition of agreement, and have clearly communicated their agreement to enter a binding vehicle purchase contract. The vehicle and parties must be identifiable. Record any remaining conditions and the agreed payment and handover arrangements; do not assume that leaving a detail unrecorded necessarily prevents a contract arising. If the parties expressly make their agreement subject to a further condition, its legal effect depends on that condition and their agreement.
6.2 A final agreement may be recorded in a signed purchase document or a clear exchange of messages. An oral agreement or conduct can also have legal effect under applicable law. Do not assume that a contract can arise only when payment clears or keys change hands. We recommend a dated written record so both parties know what has been agreed.
6.3 Platform submission, selection, an inspection appointment, a drop-off invitation or an Inspection Pending status does not itself meet section 6.1. The relevant act must be distinguished from a later express agreement to buy and sell following inspection.
6.4 Once a binding final purchase contract has formed, its terms and the law govern both parties' obligations and remedies. These terms do not create a general right to withdraw from that contract without consequences, authorise misrepresentation, or remove legal rights relating to defects, title, payment or breach.
6.5 These Platform terms do not determine the governing law or all terms of a separate vehicle purchase agreement. Nothing in them overrides the legal effect of a separate agreement the parties actually make.
7. Optional drop-off, collection and appointments
7.1 You and the trader must agree the location, appointment and whether the vehicle will be collected or brought to the trader's dealership. Seller drop-off is optional, never compulsory merely because you use the Platform or select an offer.
7.2 A trader may explain that a particular provisional offer depends on an agreed drop-off arrangement. You can choose whether to agree to that arrangement or pursue a different trader. An invitation to bring your vehicle to a dealership is an invitation to inspection and discussion, not a guaranteed purchase offer.
7.3 Agree any transport or other separately arranged cost in advance. Neither selection nor a dealership invitation automatically creates a right to travel reimbursement or an inspection, cancellation, storage or no-show charge. Do not assume the journey will be paid for if a purchase does not follow.
7.4 Do not leave keys, documents or the vehicle at premises on the assumption that a sale is guaranteed. Agree the basis of any temporary possession, storage or testing separately. Ordinary duties imposed by law are unaffected.
8. Payment and completing the sale
8.1 The trader and you arrange the final vehicle payment directly. SellAnyCarFast does not collect or hold the vehicle purchase money as part of this model. Agree the payment method, recipient and timing, as well as keys, documents and handover, before completing the transaction.
8.2 Check payment instructions and receipt carefully. If finance or another person's rights affect the vehicle, agree and document the lawful settlement and transfer process. Do not assume that the V5C alone establishes ownership or that a message or screenshot proves cleared payment.
8.3 Transfer of title, risk and possession is governed by the final purchase contract and applicable law; none occurs merely because the Platform shows an offer-selection or inspection status. Tell the trader and update the Platform when the transaction has actually completed. A label alone does not establish completion.
9. Platform charges and trader offer fees
9.1 Listing your vehicle on the Platform is free. These terms do not introduce a seller success fee, completion fee or deduction from the agreed vehicle purchase price.
9.2 Trader registration is free, and the offer service has no monthly trader subscription fee. Traders pay a value-based platform fee for each offer submitted, including an unsuccessful offer. The applicable fee must be displayed to them before submission. There is no additional SellAnyCarFast platform success fee when an offer is selected or the eventual vehicle purchase completes.
9.3 The trader's offer fee is separate from the proposed vehicle price. These terms do not make you responsible for that fee or allow an unagreed deduction from a final purchase price. A trader's decision to pay a submission fee does not compel you to sell.
9.4 Questions about a trader’s offer-fee refund are dealt with under the Trader Terms and applicable law. These seller terms do not promise a trader a refund, make you responsible for the trader’s platform fee or remove rights relating to misrepresentation or breach.
9.5 No additional paid seller service, deposit, cancellation charge or waiver of consumer rights is introduced by these terms. Any separately offered paid service would require its own clear price and terms, together with any information and cancellation rights required by law.
10. Conduct, communications and personal data
10.1 Use the Platform lawfully. Do not submit false listings, impersonate someone, use abusive or deceptive communications, facilitate stolen-vehicle transactions or money laundering, or disrupt the service or other users.
10.2 Use another user's contact details only for the relevant enquiry, inspection and transaction and other purposes lawfully authorised. An introduction does not permit harassment or unrelated marketing. Personal data we process is handled as described in the Seller Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection law.
10.3 Answer enquiries honestly and communicate material changes. Neither the provisional model nor inspection authorises misrepresentation, fraudulent withdrawal tactics or avoidance of duties arising from an agreed final sale.
11. Content and intellectual property
11.1 We and our licensors retain rights in Platform software, branding and material we own. You retain rights you hold in your own listing, photographs and messages. Do not upload content you lack the right to use or misuse someone else's protected content.
11.2 You authorise us to host, display and transmit your content as needed to operate your listing and related offer/inspection communications. This does not transfer ownership to us or allow unrelated exploitation.
12. Listing removal, restrictions and account closure
12.1 We may remove unlawful content or restrict, suspend or close an account where reasonably necessary to address a material breach, fraud, misuse, legal requirement or security risk. Urgent risks may require immediate action; otherwise we will explain the reason and give an appropriate opportunity to respond where lawful and practicable. Contact us if you believe a decision is mistaken.
12.2 We will not treat the mere refusal of an unselected provisional offer, or a genuine decision not to agree a final purchase after inspection, as a breach of an existing final sale. Deception and failure to honour an already binding final contract are separate matters.
12.3 You may request account closure through support. Closure does not cancel an already formed vehicle sale contract, an accrued claim or a payment/refund right. Information is retained or deleted according to applicable law and the Privacy Policy.
13. Our responsibilities and liability
13.1 We will provide our platform services with reasonable care and skill. We cannot guarantee a particular offer, successful sale, uninterrupted availability, another user's performance or the condition of a vehicle we have not inspected. This does not exclude responsibility for our own breach, negligence or misleading statements.
13.2 Nothing in these terms excludes or restricts liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted. Your applicable statutory rights and remedies, including protections concerning our services and unfair terms, remain intact.
13.3 If we breach our obligations, our responsibility for loss is determined under applicable law, including applicable rules about foreseeable loss and consumer remedies. The fact that a dispute involves a trader or a collection does not automatically exclude our responsibility for our own acts or omissions. We do not seek through these terms to exclude all direct loss, cap our liability at a fee a free-service user has not paid, or require you to indemnify us for our own wrongdoing.
13.4 These Platform terms do not remove rights or obligations arising under the final seller–trader purchase contract. Selling privately to a business is not automatically the same legal transaction as a consumer buying a car from a dealer; obtain advice about the relevant rights if a dispute arises.
14. Changes, notice and transactions already in progress
14.1 We may propose changes to reflect changes in law, security needs, our services or clearly disclosed pricing. This does not give us an unrestricted right to rewrite an existing contract retrospectively.
14.2 Before applying a material change to an existing contract, we will provide the revised dated terms and a clear summary directly, explain the proposed start date and give a reasonable opportunity to consider the change. We will seek express agreement to a material change in the offer model rather than relying only on publication of a replacement web page.
14.3 Publication of these terms does not by itself change an existing contract. If you do not agree to a proposed change, contact us before using the affected new service. You may stop using the service and request account closure without giving up accrued claims, money rights or rights under an existing vehicle purchase contract.
14.4 These terms do not retrospectively turn an existing binding vehicle purchase into a provisional offer. Earlier offers, selected offers and completed sales retain their legal effect under the terms and agreements applicable to them. A change affecting an existing arrangement requires the agreement or other legal basis needed for that change.
15. Complaints, governing law and courts
15.1 Use our Contact us page to raise a complaint, identifying the relevant vehicle, offer or charge and explaining the issue. We will consider the information and explain our response. These terms do not require paid or compulsory arbitration, prevent you from seeking independent advice or remove rights to use the courts or other remedies available by law.
15.2 The law of England and Wales governs the platform-services contract. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of any mandatory protection that applies in the part of the UK where you live or restrict court rights that cannot lawfully be restricted.
15.3 The courts of England and Wales may hear disputes about that contract, subject to your applicable right to bring a claim in the courts where you live and the rules governing where we may bring proceedings against you. This is not an exclusive English-courts requirement imposed on consumers in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
15.4 This section does not select the law or court for a separate vehicle purchase contract. Rights and court rules that apply in Scotland or Northern Ireland are not excluded or assumed to be identical to those in England and Wales.
