When it's time to sell your Toyota, two common routes stand out: visiting a traditional dealership or using an online selling platform like ExchangeMyCar. Each option works differently and suits different priorities, depending on convenience, speed, and how you wish to sell your Toyota car.
Selling your Toyota to a dealership usually means driving to a local franchise or an independent dealer for a vehicle appraisal. The dealer inspects the car, checks its history and mileage, and makes an offer based on their stock needs. Negotiation is often face to face, and the offer may be linked to part-exchange rather than a straight sale. Payment is typically quick, but the price can be influenced by the dealer's stocking requirements for your specific Toyota model.
Face-to-face process Immediate valuation Same-day sale possible No online setup needed Part-exchange option
Limited price comparison Offer tied to stock needs In-person visits required Negotiation pressure May not accept Toyota in all conditions
On the other hand, if you sell through an online platform, you simply need to enter your vehicle details to receive offers remotely. Your car can be matched with multiple specialist buyers looking for specific Toyota models. ExchangeMyCar, for instance, uses its Seller-Buyer MatchmakingTM algorithm to connect you with buyers best placed to make winning offers based on their purchase history and desired stock. No restrictions on age, mileage, or condition, either.
Free online valuation No dealership visits Multiple buyers compete Many platforms accept a wide range of models Specialist Toyota demand Home-based process Nationwide reach Limited part-exchange offers Car collection timing may vary by region
So, which option should you choose?
It depends on your priorities. The key difference is choice and reach. Dealerships offer a familiar, local route but usually the price can be influenced by the dealer's stocking requirements for your specific Toyota model. Online platforms open your Toyota up to a wider market of specialist buyers, creating competition rather than relying on a single dealer's needs. With ExchangeMyCar, the process focuses on matching your Toyota to buyers who actively want it, helping sellers compare options confidently and sell on their own terms.
You can sell a wide range of petrol, diesel, hybrid, and older Toyota models through ExchangeMyCar. Specialist buyers are available for many of the most popular Toyota vehicles in the UK, including:
Toyota cars are generally known for holding their value well in the UK used-car market, largely due to their strong reputation and demand. Popular Toyota models like Yaris may retain up to 79.8% of their original value after three years on the road.
Your Toyota's current value depends on factors such as model, year, mileage, condition, service history, and market demand. To find out what your Toyota is worth right now, use ExchangeMyCar's free car value calculator and compare offers from specialist buyers.

From its first UK arrival in the 1960s to becoming one of the country's most trusted car brands, Toyota's growth has been shaped by affordability, efficiency, and long-term value.
Toyota entered the UK market in 1965 with the introduction of the Crown. British drivers were drawn to its affordability and fuel efficiency. During the 70s & 80s, Toyota expanded rapidly, launching models such as the Corolla, Carina, and Celica, which built a reputation for everyday practicality across the UK.
In 1992, Toyota strengthened its presence by opening the Burnaston plant in Derbyshire. The facility began producing models like the Avensis and Corolla. This marked Toyota as the second Japanese manufacturer to build cars in the UK, following Nissan, and reinforced its long-term commitment to the UK.
Toyota has become synonymous with reliability and affordability. Models like the Corolla and Yaris perform strongly in surveys, with Toyota consistently named the most reliable brand for many years. Strong resale values, supported by consistent servicing, help keep Toyota a trusted choice on UK roads.
