What price did we pay for the Honda Civic?

If you are planning to sell your Honda Civic to a wrecker, you may wonder how much you can get for it. The price is not always based on the car’s age. Its condition, kilometres, and the number of working parts can make a big difference.

Recently, we paid different prices for two Honda Civics:

The 2006 Civic was older, but we paid $1,150 for it. The reason was that it still had more usable parts. Although the transmission had failed, other components were in better condition and could be useful as replacement parts.

For the 2008 Civic, we paid $700 because fewer parts were functional. So, even though it was newer, its overall condition reduced its value as a wrecking vehicle.

When wreckers assess a vehicle, they look at the engine, transmission, body panels, interior, wheels, electrical components, and other reusable parts. Damage, missing parts, and mechanical problems can all affect the final offer.

So, if your Civic is old, damaged, or no longer running, don’t assume it has little value. The condition and usable parts can be just as important as the year. To learn how much car wreckers pay for a vehicle, contact us now.
