The offer people make is nothing more than I guide. Just to win the auction. They paid nowhere near that.
Best price received
Very efficient. Helpful staff and the system was pretty straight forward
Better price than any other web site
Fantastic easy experience selling my…
Fantastic easy experience selling my car through Carwow , got a great price and the whole process was made super easy with very little hassle . Carwow found a brilliant buyer who made the whole sale very unstressful and would definitely recommend Carwow without hesitation if you’re looking to sell your car with ease .
Good with communication
Could have been great
Overall listing the car was quite easy.
The downside came when I accepted my first offer on the car and then buyer did not respond at all which was a fun experience to then go and re-list the car.
After that the second offer I accepted took a long time for communication between the buyer and myself as car wow did not update my phone number with any great pace (2 weeks). Email response times from the sales team was glacier slow at best unless they need me to upload a document then the responses were prompt.
Overall glad to get the car sold but wasn't a great experience at all.
Outstanding service from Sarah and the Johnsons team! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Outstanding service from Sarah and the Johnsons team! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently bought my new Hyundai Ioniq 3 from Johnsons Hyundai Slough through Carwow, and the experience was flawless from start to finish.
Sarah, the dedicated leader of the Carwow team at Johnsons, was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire buying process. She guided me through everything, from putting together a personalised quotation to arranging my test drive. What stood out most was her communication—she kept me constantly updated and messaged me at every single stage of the journey so I was never left wondering.
When it came to the test drive, Sarah coordinated everything perfectly and made sure Idrees at the branch was fully briefed to look after me. The teamwork and dedication to customer service here are exceptional. If you are buying through Carwow, you are in very safe hands with Sarah and the team at Johnsons Slough. Highly recommended!

Great service
Great service very helpful in negotiating difficult pathway to buying a new car
The overall experience was very good
The overall experience was very good. It was a simple process to add the vehicle images and details to the listing.
It’s great that the listing has no fee.
A dealer bid on my car the first time I listed it but then pulled out of the purchase a few days later, which was annoying as at the time, I didn’t realise both parties could still pull out of the deal pretty much all the way through the process. After speaking to Carwow about this, they explained the process that both parties are within their rights to pull out of the deal at any time.
My vehicle was then relisted the following day and a stronger offer was made from a different dealer that went through and the car was collected with good communication throughout the process.
If you’re looking to sell your car with little hassle, this is a great way to do it!
Extremely Disappointing Valuation
Extremely Disappointing Valuation – Far Below Expectations
I am very disappointed with my experience with Carwow. I listed my Audi A4 expecting a fair and competitive market valuation, but the highest offer received was just £6,000, which I consider significantly below the vehicle’s actual market value.
I spent time preparing the vehicle, providing the requested details and going through the auction process, only to receive an offer that was nowhere near what I expected.
I understand that dealers need to make a profit, but such a low valuation makes the entire process feel disappointing and a waste of time.
I expected a much more realistic and competitive offer from a well-established platform like Carwow.
Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would hesitate to recommend Carwow to anyone looking to sell their vehicle for a fair price.
I had a lot of communication from car…
I had a lot of communication from car wow asking if the buyer had been in touch and chasing them up for a date to collect my car , great service
Nice and straight forward
I found the experience to be very positive. It was easy to upload the photos and my car was in the auction the following day, the car sold and it was picked up within the week. All in all it was very good.
Process was effortless
Process was effortless, simply provide car details and add pictures, and the car is in auction. Process visibility was also good, I could see the status at anytime.
Poor
Poor. Will not recommend or use again. Car didn't make the reserve. Communication after was poor. Once car was collected there was no information and I had to chase the dealer for 4 days for payment to be made.
I wanted to sell my car without the tyre kicking brigade getting involved
I wanted to sell my car without the usual tyre kicker brigade turning up at my door. Searched around and Carwow looked the best option, and as it turned out, it was. Quick and easy, took a few photographs, submitted them and two days later it was sold, slightly less than I hoped for but nevertheless sold.
