About us
Auto trade made simple and rewarding MintyCar brings the best aspects of two worlds - car dealership and private trade.\n\nOver 8 million cars are traded on an annual basis in UK and the vast majority are traded privately. MintyCar has designed an unique one-stop-shop solution combining the best aspects from the two worlds - buying a car privately with the same level of security as buying from a car dealership. \n\nAn attractive price is seldom offered from a car dealership for natural reasons. Hence, most people choose to sell their car privately with the aim to obtain an optimal price. Selling a car privately can be hard work and a nerve wrecking experience, not appreciated by everyone. \n\nOn the flip-side, a person who buys a car from a private seller, wants to make a cost saving. A buyer normally demands an attractive price due to a higher risk regarding the quality of the car. Frequently a car is fraught with unknown and serious problems, not spotted at the time of sale, causing grief for the buyer. \n\nPrivately traded cars are mostly sold as seen, i.e. without a warranty, removing much needed protection for buyers. MintyCar aims to tackle fundamental issues in private transactions. The risks are minimised for both sellers and buyers by a well-defined process and a set of services, supporting transparency, quality and warranty.
