There are several reliable estimating methods available to vehicle owners. One of the most common methods is to use online estimating tools.
These tools allow owners to fill in their license plate (which will be decoded by the site), or directly enter detailed information about their car, such as make, model, year of manufacture, mileage, general condition and additional options.
Based on this data, the tool (or a human, as with our estimates) generates a rough estimate of the car's value. Although these tools can give a general idea of the selling price, it's important to bear in mind that they don't always take into account all relevant factors, such as maintenance history, mechanical problems or body defects .
Another estimation method is to consult the Argus (very unreliable) used car price guides. These guides provide price ranges based on the model, year and mileage of the vehicle. However, they do not take into account the individual characteristics of each car, which can make estimates less precise.
A more precise approach is to have your car professionally appraised. This step follows our online estimates.
Automotive appraisers are trained to evaluate vehicles based on condition, maintenance history, mileage and other criteria. They can provide a more accurate and personalized estimate of your car's value, which can help you set a realistic and competitive selling price .
If you would like an accurate estimate of your car's value, we encourage you to use our online form. By providing us with detailed information about your vehicle, we'll be able to offer you a fair and accurate estimate. What's more, if you're planning to sell your car quickly and safely, we recommend that you discover our tailor-made depot-sale method . By entrusting us with the sale of your vehicle, you'll benefit from our expertise, our network of contacts and our assistance throughout the entire sales process.

Selling a car means setting a realistic price to attract buyers without the risk of undervaluing the vehicle. Online valuation platforms such as Côte Argus, Vendezvotrevoiture.fr and Autobiz have become increasingly popular, offering quick estimates based on a variety of criteria. However, it's essential to understand their advantages and limitations before relying on them completely.
Reliability of online estimates
Online platforms use algorithms that take into account parameters such as age, mileage, make, model, options and general condition of the vehicle. These estimates, calculated on the basis of past sales and current market trends, are generally close to reality. However, they may lack precision in certain cases, such as whenthe exact condition of the vehicle needs to be assessed . Estimates only take into account a "standard" condition, and do not take into account any damage or repairs carried out.
Advantages of online estimates
Online estimates enable sellers to obtain a price in a matter of minutes.
They give a global idea of market prices, particularly for recent and popular models.
An online estimate can be used as a reference when negotiating with buyers.
Limitations of online estimates
It's important to complement an online estimate with a physical appraisal at a professional dealership, especially if the vehicle has specific features(modifications, extra equipment, unusual wear and tear). As the algorithms are based on general data, the online estimate remains a starting point to be refined.
Côte Argus is a long-standing benchmark in the French automotive market for used car appraisals. Created in 1927, it offers a reliable estimate based on solid criteria. Here's how to use the Côte Argus effectively to estimate the sale price of your car.
1. Enter your vehicle details: On the Argus website, enter your car's main characteristics: make, model, year on the road, and mileage.
2. Refine the valuation: Specify additional options, general condition, and the car's history to obtain a more detailed estimate...
Interpreting the Côte Argus
The Côte Argus provides an estimate reflecting the price that professional buyers would accept. It has traditionally been used by dealers to buy or trade used vehicles. However, the price you'll get in a private sale can vary. Private individuals may pay less for a well-maintained, popular model.
The Côte Argus and depreciation
The Côte Argus takes into account the depreciation of vehicles, which is often marked in the first few years of use. For example, a new car loses an average of 15% to 30% of its value in the first year, then the depreciation slows down after the first three years. Using the Côte Argus allows you to calculate a realistic value, taking into account the vehicle's natural wear and tear.
The reputation of the Côte Argus is based on a proven methodology and decades of experience in car valuation. Nevertheless, although the Côte Argus is generally considered a benchmark, it does have certain limitations when it comes to private sales.
Advantages of Côte Argus for sellers
Based on transparent criteria, Côte Argus uses real transaction data, adjusted according to the vehicle's condition, age and mileage.
Used by professionals, Côte Argus is a recognized benchmark for defending your selling price.
Côte Argus adjusts its values according to market trends, offering up-to-date estimates adapted to the economic context.
Limitations of the Côte Argus
Price differences between private individuals and professionals: The Côte Argus price is often higher than prices quoted between private individuals, as it reflects a theoretical price.
Impact of market trends: The Côte Argus cannot always anticipate rapid or temporary market trends, such as a sudden rise in demand for a particular model.
Complement the Côte Argus with other valuations
For an optimum final price, it's advisable to compare the Côte Argus with other sources such as online valuations and prices posted in similar ads. For example, for a highly sought-after car or one with specific options, private demand may differ greatly from the Argus value.
In short, to obtain the best selling price, a wise seller will take into account current market trends on Leboncoin and supplement this estimate with other sources, such as valuations on specialized sites and prices observed among competitors on selling platforms.
To determine how much to sell your car for, it's essential to understand the many factors that influence its price on the used car market.
First of all, the general condition of the vehicle is crucial. Potential buyers will be attentive to the car's exterior appearance, its interior, the condition of the bodywork and any signs of wear or damage. A well-maintained vehicle in good condition will sell for a higher price.
Mileage is another determining factor. As a general rule, the lower the mileage, the more the car retains its value. Additional features and options can also have an impact on the selling price. For example, a car equipped with top-of-the-range features such as an upgraded hi-fi system, panoramic sunroof or leather seats will sell for more than a basic model.
The vehicle's maintenance history is also important. Buyers will be reassured by a complete history of regular, professionally performed maintenance.
In addition, external factors such as market demand, seasonality and geographic location can also influence the selling price.
By understanding these different factors and taking each of them into account when valuing your car, you'll be better prepared to set a fair and competitive price on the used car market.

When considering selling your car, it's important to understand the difference between the trade-in price and the market price. The trade-in price is the price offered by an automotive professional to buy your car, far below its market value, because he or she has to allow for reconditioning and resale costs, and must also earn money from the sale.
On the other hand, the market price is the price at which your car could be sold on the second-hand market between private individuals.
With our depot-sale solution, we help you get the best price(very close to the market price) for your car by delegating the sale to us. You'll benefit from 100% secure payment, at an attractive price: 20% higher than a trade-in.
