What our customers say

Reviews via Trustpilot

“Great quote, over £100 more than other competitors. Simple online process, van collected soon after, money straight in the bank. Recovery driver very helpful with my non runner van that wasn't in the easiest position to take away. Highly recommend.”

Ford Transit: what it's worth

The Ford Transit is the UK's best-selling large van and has been for decades, which means a deep, liquid second-hand and salvage market for every generation. Mk6, Mk7, and the 2014-on Mk8 are all actively priced by our network. High mileage is the norm on Transits; our offer is based on salvage value of working components (engines, gearboxes, axles, body panels) not the service history.

What affects the offer on your Transit

The Mk7 and Mk8 Transit's 2.0 TDCi and 2.0 EcoBlue engines are the most in-demand units in our salvage network. Known weak points, EGR valve fouling, DPF blockages on stop-start use, timing chain wear on high-mileage 2.4 TDCi, are priced into our component valuation, not used as grounds to reduce the offer. A Transit with a seized EGR valve or a DPF warning light is not a deal-breaker; the rest of the drivetrain may still be worth significantly more than straight scrap.

Key facts on the Transit

  • Mk8 2.0 EcoBlue (2019-on) is the most in-demand Transit engine in our salvage network, clean units attract the strongest bids
  • Body panels are interchangeable across many Mk8 variants, a straight-bodied high-roof feeds the same salvage pool as an LWB
  • 200,000+ mile examples are normal, our offer is based on component condition, not the odometer
  • All wheelbases and roof heights priced individually: SWB/MWB/LWB/XLWB, low/medium/high roof
Production years
1965–present
Configurations
SWB, MWB, LWB, XLWB, low, medium and high roof
Typical operators
Tradespeople, couriers, removals operators, NHS and public sector fleet

What you get when you sell to us

  • One offer in 30 seconds, based on live salvage and used-market pricing, not a generic lookup.
  • Free collection anywhere in 90% of UK postcodes.
  • Same-day bank transfer once the driver confirms collection.
  • V5 and finance settlement handled on our side.

Selling your Ford Transit, common questions

What's a high-mileage Mk8 Transit worth in rough numbers?

+

A 2018 350 LWB high-roof 2.0 EcoBlue with 200,000 miles and a working drivetrain typically comes back as a salvage offer in the £1,200–£2,000 range depending on body condition. Scrap-only floor on a non-runner is roughly £180–£300.

Does the 2.4 TDCi timing chain problem on Mk7 Transits reduce the offer significantly?

+

Only if the engine has actually failed. A running 2.4 TDCi, even with high mileage, still has value as a salvage item for the gearbox, axles, and body. A seized engine reduces the engine-specific portion of the offer, not everything else.

Which Transit wheelbase and roof height gets the best offer?

+

LWB high-roof (H2/H3) typically yields the best offer, more body panels and a larger load floor to salvage. XLWB dropside and flatbed variants can equal or exceed this depending on condition.

My Transit was in a front-end accident, is there still a salvage value?

+

Often yes. Front-end damage typically leaves the rear body and drivetrain intact, and on a Transit, that's where most of the value is. Enter the reg and describe the damage in the notes.

Will you collect a Transit that hasn't moved in 18 months?

+

Yes, non-running and dormant Transits are collected by flatbed recovery. We need to know the location and any access restrictions.
