Ford Fiesta owners could make over £20,000 on their used car according to exclusive data.

The second-hand car market is currently booming, with around 2 million sales in the first three months of 2025 alone - and it turns out a serious amount of money could be up for grabs.

LADbible spoke to Webuyanycar who gave us the lowdown on how much yours could be worth - and it's fair say you might be pleasantly surprised by the results.

According to the automotive experts, the value of a second-hand car depends on a huge number of factors, from age and mileage to condition and service history.

In fact, once a car leaves the showroom it quickly begins to lose value, typically between 15% to 35% in the first year, which then shoots up to 60% by year five.

So, how can you make sure you get the biggest possible payout for your car, and how much could it go for? Scroll down now to find out everything you need to know.

How much could your car be worth?

As stats show, the most a Ford Fiesta has sold for on the site is a whopping £20,315. Meanwhile, one Ford Focus came in at an impressive £27,711 and a Volkswagen Polo sold for £21,500.

The most expensive model to date? Webuyanycar spent an incredible £42,790 on a one-year-old BMW 3 Series. For price comparison, the car company valued a 24-year-old VW Polo at only £50.

It's worth noting that these are generally vehicles in tip-top condition which are no more than a couple of years old - age, damage and mileage will obviously knock a few quid off the valuation.

In order to keep your car in decent shape, experts recommend repairing dents and scratches early, and keeping your mileage at a sensible figure.

As for the lowest prices? Well, for all of the models above the lowest sold price was a measly £50 - but it's worth noting many of these were over 20 years old and had 'significant damage'.

How to sell your second-hand car

If you're looking to get some cash for your old vehicle, you have a few options. Generally, all you need to do is enter the vehicle's registration number and mileage, and the retailer's car value checker should tell you the car's current value based on the most recent market data. Here are a few of the most popular car resale sites in the UK:

  • Webuyanycar: A quick and convenient option, you'll sell your car to the company directly, no haggling with private sellers or dealers. The downside is you might get a lower price as they take a margin to sell your car. Charges a transaction fee of between £49.99 and £124.99.
  • Carwow: If you don't fancy the hassle of a private sale, with Carwow you submit your car details and the site lists it to their network of trusted dealers, who then bid on it. It's completely free to use.
  • Autotrader: You'll have an option to sell privately or via an auction, and will have full control over how your car is presented and priced. You'll deal with potential buyers directly, and there's usually a listing fee from around £18.95 to £49.95 for cars.
