Types of damage we consider.
A clear description helps the team review the car on its current condition rather than on assumptions.
Mechanical damage
Engine, gearbox, electrical and cooling problems are useful details for the review.
Non-running vehicles
A damaged car does not need to start before you can send its make, model and year.
Water or flood damage
Disclose any water exposure clearly so the vehicle can be considered on its actual condition.
Repair decision
Should you repair it before selling?
There is no one answer. If repair cost is high or the vehicle has several issues, requesting a valuation first can give you a more useful comparison.

Consider accident damage, hidden mechanical issues and how long the repair may take.

Damaged-car FAQs
Answers to common questions about valuing and selling a damaged vehicle in the UAE.
Can I sell a damaged car in the UAE?
Yes. Send the make, model, year and a clear description of the damage for a free valuation. The team can then discuss the practical next step with you.
Do I need to repair my damaged car before selling?
Not necessarily. Repair costs, the vehicle’s condition and current demand all matter. Request a valuation based on the car as it is before deciding whether repairs make sense.
Can I get a valuation for an accident-damaged car?
Yes. Explain the accident or body damage accurately. The more clearly the condition is described, the better the team can assess the request.
Can you consider a damaged car that will not start?
Yes. A non-running vehicle can still be submitted for valuation. Include the vehicle details and any known mechanical issue.
Is vehicle collection available for damaged cars?
Collection is available across supported UAE locations, subject to the vehicle condition, location and practical access. The team confirms what is possible after reviewing the request.
What paperwork might be needed?
Requirements depend on the vehicle and the final process. Keep the Mulkiya, Emirates ID and relevant authority or lender paperwork available, then confirm the current requirements before handover.
