How a trade-⁠in price is worked out

For each model we take the price of a 2019 car with 105,000 km in good order from Baku listings, and update it once a month. Each year of age moves it by 6–9% depending on the model: a Toyota Corolla loses value slowly, premium saloons fast.

Normal mileage is 15,000 km a year. Each 10,000 km over or under moves the price by 1.5%, but by no more than 15%.

Good condition is 5% below excellent, fair 14%, and a car that needs work 28%. A minor accident, meaning panels replaced or repainted, takes another 7%; bent body geometry or deployed airbags 25%. A full dealer service book adds 3%, no book at all takes 4% off.

We pay 86–92% of the market price. The difference covers the check, the parts replaced before sale and the 12-⁠month warranty we give on the car we sell. In return you get the money, or the reduction on your new car, the same day, without listing it and waiting for a buyer.

An example: a 2019 Toyota Camry, 98,000 km, good condition, no accidents, a full book. The calculator shows ₼29,300–₼31,400. After a 40-⁠minute check at the centre we name one figure in that range; the offer holds for 14 days. Value your car.
