What do I need to have ready on the day of sale?

On the day your van is due to be collected, you’ll need to have the following items to hand:

If you’re the registered keeper:

• V5C vehicle registration document (the logbook)
• MOT certificate
• All the spare keys for the van
• Photo ID
• Proof of address (either a utility bill, bank statement, or council tax statement – this needs to match the address on the V5C document)
• Authority from your finance company, including a letter from the company confirming the final settlement figure if there’s finance outstanding
• Service record book, handbook, locking wheel nuts, radio and key codes if you have them
• Your UK bank details
• Fuel – it doesn’t need to be a full tank, but please make sure that the fuel light isn’t on

If you’re not the registered keeper of the vehicle:

• The bank details and photo ID of the registered keeper plus:
• All the above items
• Written authorisation from the registered keeper that you’re able to sell the car
