Will CarBrain Buy My Volkswagen if It Has Engine Problems?

Your Volkswagen has run well for years, but its specialized parts and sophisticated engine have always been more expensive to fix compared to other makes. Now that it isn't running as it should, the estimates you got from the mechanic are near astronomical.

It might be time to consider selling your broken Volkswagen for cash. But what's the best way to get cash for your damaged car? Find out why selling your broken Volkswagen online is the best option for you. 

CarBrain helps sellers like you dispose of unwanted, crashed and old clunkers every day. Discover your car's value in less than 90 seconds!

Did You Know

The best way to sell a Volkswagen that isn't in perfect condition isn't through a dealership or private seller. These individuals will want a running car and will negotiate its price down to near nothing or not buy it at all.

The best way to sell your car online is through CarBrain. We make fair market offers instantly, and pick up your vehicle from your home or office for free! Get your offer now

Should I Fix Or Sell My Volkswagen With Problems?

It can be hard to decide when to let go of a vehicle that's served you well over the years. You might be tempted to believe that if you just repair enough parts in a car, it can keep going forever — but that's just not true.

Even if you completely replace the mechanical system and outside parts, a vehicle cannot last forever. Eventually, the frame and body will begin to rust away. It doesn't make financial sense to continue repairing a vehicle that is falling apart.

A good, easy rule of thumb for deciding when it's time to replace your vehicle is the following: if the cost of repairing the car equals 50 percent or more of the total value of the vehicle, it's time to junk it and find a replacement.

However, there are still other factors to consider. For instance, how much have you spent trying to maintain the car up to now? If the cost of repairing the vehicle only totals 30 percent, but you know other parts will soon need maintenance or replacement, you might ultimately be looking at a clunker.

CarBrain will make a fast and fair offer on all cars in less-than-perfect condition. Find out how much you can get for your car — and then sell it in days. There's no fuss, no haggling and no fees.

Get Paid Quickly For A Totaled Volkswagen

Your inoperable Volkswagen is actually still useful for its good parts. But learning where to sell Volkswagen parts can be time-consuming and tedious. This also won't solve your question of how to sell a Volkswagen fast as you'll need to have a certain know-how to scrap your car safely.

Selling Volkswagens part by part can take months to complete. Additionally, if key pieces of your car like your engine and transmission are damaged, you may not even make a greater profit selling it with this method. In that case, it's a better idea to sell your mechanically damaged car whole. The best way to sell your car quickly, easily and for a fair price is to go online.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is The Fair Market Quote For My Non-Running Volkswagen?

The best way to figure out your damaged Volkswagen's current market value is to get quotes from nearby junk yards and purchasers. Its value depends on where it's currently located, its current condition, its model, year, mileage, accident history and more.

The worth of a non-starting Volkswagen can be anything from a couple hundred to several thousand dollars. A newer vehicle with mechanical problems will be worth more than an old, total loss car. Some vehicles can be rebuilt, while others can only be melted down and reused for their parts.

CarBrain can produce an offer for your damaged Volkswagen in any condition in less than 2 minutes. All offers include FREE pick-up and title transfer across the country. Find out what your Volkswagen with problems is worth today.

How Will I Be Sure That I Wouldn't Be Held Liable For A Car After Selling It?

You can find plenty of five-star reviews for CarBrain.com online with TrustPilot Reviews, Google, Facebook.com, BBB.org and more. Feel free to read them to learn more about us!

CarBrain has had the opportunity to work with a great number of people throughout the country every single month. Because of our extremely quick pick-up and ease of use, we have earned a reputation for being a trusted and reliable company for getting money for damaged cars online.

To prove that we've purchased old Volkswagens legally, we will need your title for transfer of ownership — so make sure to have it handy during the process. After we receive the Volkswagen, we will send you a Bill of Sale documenting our purchase.

Will CarBrain.com Buy A Car That Was Written Off As Totaled?

CarBrain.com has no problem buying uninsured Volkswagens or Volkswagens declared a total loss. Insurance coverage does not affect our evaluations. If you have insurance and your insurer declared your Volkswagen a total loss, you can ask to retain the salvage title.

By doing this, your insurance company will send you both a check for your Volkswagen's pre-accident value — minus the deductible and their expected profit from selling your totaled Volkswagen — and its title. Then, you can contact CarBrain.com and get a second check for your Volkswagen!
