Trade-In Appraisal at Land Rover Roanoke

Our trade-in program ensures that you will not be low-balled. Our process is transparent, and every aspect is explained in detail. The following is a quick guide to our appraisal process:

• Inspecting the Vehicle. Your trade-in value is determined by the condition of your vehicle. During the multi-point inspection, our technicians ensure that none of the parts are damaged.
• Auto Diagnostics. We also use sophisticated tools to scan for potential issues and dashboard warnings during the diagnostic process. We'll also take your vehicle for a test drive.
• Background Check. Using a CARFAX vehicle history report, we confirm the vehicle's ownership and maintenance history. Furthermore, we check if the vehicle has been involved in any accidents.
• Market Analysis. To calculate your vehicle’s trade-in value, our team analyzes relevant auction and sales data from reliable sources, including Black Book and Kelley Blue Book (KBB). Using this method, we can create an accurate trade-in deal that reflects your vehicle's true market value.

‘Value Your Trade’ Tool

Before visiting the dealership, you can get a rough estimate of your vehicle’s trade-in value. On our Blue Book® Value page, you can find out how much your vehicle is worth by entering your VIN, mileage, and other details. You get an instant online estimate sourced from KBB.

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to evaluate your vehicle’s actual condition online. Hence, we always recommend visiting our dealership in person to get a final appraisal.

What Affects the Value of a Trade-In?

Several factors can impact a vehicle's appraised trade-in value. Here are some details you need to know.

• Vehicle's Specifications. The vehicle's trade-in value depends on its make, model, and year. Any optional upgrades also add to that value.
• Recorded Mileage. Another factor is the accumulated mileage on the odometer. Generally, vehicles with low mileage are worth more when traded in.
• The Vehicle's Condition. Worn-out tires, scratches, dents, and malfunctioning warning lights can decrease a vehicle's value.
• Demand. Generally, trucks and SUVs tend to sell faster than sedans and minivans. It is essential to note that stock movement also affects dealer prices.

Boost Your Vehicle's Trade-In Value

It's essential to ensure your trade-in is in good condition to maximize its value. To get started, follow these steps:

• When you visit the dealership for an appraisal, make sure your vehicle is clean.
• Be sure to address all issues, including minor ones such as scratches or burned-out bulbs.
• Bring your vehicle’s maintenance records for a more accurate appraisal.
• A trade-in may be a good idea before the warranty expires or a major repair is required.
