A proper Northern Ireland car-selling page.
PureCar connects private sellers with people browsing vehicles across Northern Ireland. Your advert sits alongside cars already being searched and compared on the marketplace.
Advertise my car →If you are searching for somewhere to sell your car in Northern Ireland, you have several choices. You can part-exchange it, approach a car buying service, sell directly to a dealer or advertise it privately.
A private advert gives you the opportunity to set your own asking price, present the vehicle properly and speak directly with potential buyers. PureCar provides a Northern Ireland marketplace where private adverts can appear alongside dealer stock being browsed by car shoppers.
How much does it cost to sell a car on PureCar?
A qualifying PureCar private seller advert costs £19.99 as a one-off payment. There is no monthly advertising subscription and no recurring renewal charge while the advert remains live until the vehicle sells.
Who is this for?
The service is designed for private owners advertising their own vehicle. Whether you are selling a small first car, family SUV, performance car, electric vehicle, classic or everyday runabout, the aim is the same: create a clear advert and make it easy for interested buyers to understand exactly what you are selling.
Can people across Northern Ireland see my advert?
Yes. PureCar is built around the Northern Ireland car market. Your vehicle is not limited to buyers in your own town. Someone searching from Belfast, Derry/Londonderry, Lisburn, Newry, Bangor, Ballymena, Omagh or elsewhere in Northern Ireland may be interested in the right car.
How it works
From your driveway to a live advert.
You do not need to turn selling a car into a project. Have the vehicle details and a good set of photographs ready and work through the PureCar advert journey.
Set your price
Decide the amount you want to advertise the vehicle for and make the asking price clear.
Add good photos
Show the exterior, interior, wheels, boot, dashboard and any details a genuine buyer will want to see.
Publish
Complete your £19.99 payment and put your advert onto PureCar for buyers to discover.
Before you advertise
Make the advert worth clicking.
Buyers make decisions quickly. A clean vehicle, sensible asking price and honest advert normally make a much stronger first impression than a rushed listing with poor photographs.
- Clean the car before taking photographs
- Photograph it in daylight where possible
- Include exterior and interior images
- Check the current mileage
- Have service-history information available
- Describe known faults honestly
- Research similar cars before choosing a price
Sell a car anywhere in Northern Ireland.
PureCar is not restricted to one city. Private sellers can advertise from towns and cities across Northern Ireland and reach people searching beyond their immediate local area.

Private seller guide
Getting your car ready to sell.
The advert gets the enquiry, but the vehicle and the information you provide are what eventually make the sale happen.
Choose a realistic asking price
Compare vehicles of the same model, similar age, mileage, engine, trim and condition. A rare specification can justify a difference, but simply choosing the highest advert you can find does not automatically make your own car worth the same.
Take photographs buyers can actually use
Include front, rear, both sides, wheels, dashboard, seats, boot and relevant details. Avoid dark images, screenshots and photographs where the vehicle occupies only a tiny part of the frame.
Write like the owner, not an advert generator
Mention ownership, service history, recent maintenance, specification, tyre condition and anything else that helps a buyer understand the car. Clear information is more useful than exaggerated sales language.
Prepare for genuine enquiries
Buyers may ask about MOT history, servicing, keys, finance, previous damage, tyres and why you are selling. Having those answers ready makes the process much easier.
Be careful with payment
Do not hand over the vehicle because somebody shows you a screenshot claiming payment has been made. Confirm cleared funds through your own bank or payment provider and keep a clear record of the transaction.
Keep your paperwork organised
Gather the documents and records relevant to the vehicle before the viewing. The exact administrative steps can depend on the circumstances of the sale, so use the current official guidance when completing ownership formalities.
Your options
Private sale or sell directly to the motor trade?
Neither route is automatically right for every owner. They solve different problems.
Private advert
You control the advert and asking price.
Selling privately can suit an owner who is prepared to create the advert, answer enquiries and arrange viewings in exchange for having greater control over how the car is presented and what price they are prepared to accept.
Dealer / buying service
Potentially quicker, but a different type of transaction.
Selling directly to a dealer or buying service can reduce the amount of work involved for the owner. The trade buyer, however, is purchasing the vehicle as a business rather than advertising it privately to another end user.
Questions
Selling a car on PureCar.
How much does it cost to advertise my car on PureCar?
A qualifying private seller advert costs £19.99 as a
one-off payment. There is no monthly advertising fee or
recurring renewal charge while that advert remains live
until sold.
Is PureCar for sellers throughout Northern Ireland?
Yes. PureCar serves the Northern Ireland car market, so you
can create a private advert whether you are in Belfast,
Derry/Londonderry, Lisburn, Newry, Bangor, Ballymena, Omagh
or elsewhere in Northern Ireland.
Do I have to pay every month?
No. The private seller advert is based on a £19.99 one-off
payment rather than a monthly advertising subscription.
What photographs should I add?
Show all sides of the vehicle as well as the interior,
dashboard, wheels, boot and important specification or
condition details. Bright, clear and recent photographs give
potential buyers a much better idea of the actual car.
How should I decide what my car is worth?
Compare similar examples by age, mileage, engine,
specification, condition and history. Asking prices are not
necessarily achieved selling prices, so use comparable cars
as evidence rather than relying on one unusually expensive
advert.
Can I start my advert now?
Yes. Use the Start Advert button on this page to enter the
normal PureCar private seller journey and begin creating
your advert.
