Selling your car in Basel-Landschaft doesn’t have to mean placing listings, answering calls and inviting strangers for test drives. You enter your car’s key details in the form, upload pictures, and we quote you a binding price. If you accept, the sale is complete for you with the handover, including the registration document, plates and tax.
If you offer your car privately, you quickly notice how much is involved: a listing with good pictures, questions about features and servicing, prospective buyers who cancel at short notice, and in the end the question of whether the purchase price has really been transferred. With us, none of that applies, whether you live in the Unterbaselbiet or the Oberbaselbiet. The car itself can be very different too: from a compact city car to an all-wheel-drive vehicle with high mileage.
We welcome both. The price is fixed before the handover, payment is made by instant bank transfer (Instant Payment), and we take care of all the formalities, from the vehicle registration document to the plates.

Request an offer
Enter your vehicle details in our online form. Your advantage: with just a few details, you get a very accurate initial offer (in practice often accurate to within +/- 1’000 CHF), because we use real market data.
Send us photos of your car and your vehicle registration document conveniently online. This allows a precise assessment without you losing time on appointments.
Based on your photos, you receive a firm, guaranteed offer – conveniently online, with no on-site viewing appointments. No renegotiation, 100% transparent.
At the handover, we briefly check that everything matches your details and transfer the agreed amount to you by instant bank transfer (Instant Payment). We take care of the deregistration, including the plates, afterward.
Right at the handover, with no waiting.
We transfer the purchase price during the handover itself. The money is usually in your account within seconds, secure and traceable.
For smaller amounts, for example for export vehicles, we can also pay in cash on request.
From Allschwil to Waldenburg, we buy cars in every municipality of the Baselbiet, whether in Liestal, Pratteln, Sissach or Laufen. The way to an offer is the same everywhere: you fill in the form, send us pictures and the vehicle registration document, and we give you a fixed price that is not renegotiated at the handover. The more complete your details, the more accurate it is. Photos of the outside, the interior and the speedometer, along with known defects and a well-kept service booklet, help us with the valuation. We then arrange the date of the handover with you.
Request an offer nowAfter the handover, you have nothing more to do with the deregistration. You hand over the vehicle registration document and the BL plates to us right away, and we take care of all the formalities that follow for you. As soon as everything is complete, you get a confirmation from us.
A little preparation helps the handover go smoothly. Take personal belongings out of the glove compartment, trunk and side pockets, delete paired phones and saved addresses in the infotainment system, and have all keys and the service booklet ready. If you keep receipts, bring invoices for tires, brakes or the timing belt too; they show what was last done on the car.
You decide on the timing too. Until the agreed appointment, the plates stay on and you use your car as usual. If you’re waiting for a new vehicle, tell us the delivery date, and we’ll take it into account when we arrange the date of the handover with you.

The motor vehicle tax in the Baselbiet is based on gross weight. For passenger cars, a permanent surcharge or a temporary reduction is added, depending on the CO2 emissions according to the type approval. So a heavy car with a high CO2 figure costs its registered keeper more every year than a light, efficient one, and that can be reflected in what buyers are willing to pay for a used car.
When it comes to age, what counts most is how well a car has been looked after and when it was last inspected. An older car with the MFK due soon often puts private buyers off. We still buy such vehicles and value them as they are; older vehicles with high mileage often still find buyers through export.
The most important factors in a vehicle valuation:
Premium brands hold their value better
The lower, the more valuable
High-end features and a powerful engine increase the value
Body, engine and transmission are assessed individually

Almost nothing. Hand the car over to us as it is, with the vehicle registration document and plates; we take care of the entire deregistration and then send you the confirmation. It’s best to let your insurer know as soon as you have this confirmation.
The initial offer is based on your vehicle details and real market data. It becomes binding as soon as we have seen your photos and the vehicle registration document: that price then also applies at the handover, and there is no renegotiation.
Yes. The BL plates stay on until you hand the car over to us, and until then you use it as usual. Just make sure the condition matches your photos, and tell us about any new damage before the appointment so that we can take it into account in the offer.
No. Just state in the form which canton’s plates your car has, for example BS or SO. We take care of the deregistration for you in this case too, and nothing changes about the offer, the handover or the payment.
No. Even if your car is older or the next MFK is coming up, we’ll make you an offer. State the date of the last inspection and any known defects in your request, and they will be factored directly into the price.
Yes. Legally, a leased car belongs to the leasing company, so the lease has to be settled. We handle the communication with the leasing company and coordinate the settlement; the rest, after deducting the settlement amount, goes to you at the handover. You can find details in the guide Sell a leased car.
Whether Basel-Stadt, Aargau, Solothurn or Jura: every neighboring canton has its own page with us, with everything important about selling.
