Cars

For your car to be listed on our platform it must meet the following criteria:

  • it must be under 15 years old 

  • it can only be up to insurance group 31

  • have a current value of under £40,000

  • it can have a maximum of 7 seats

This allows us to facilitate the majority of cars apart from commercial vehicles such as vans, classic cars and super cars.

Morever, we have identified a group of cars with low marketability due to our insurance costs, therefore cars that are:

  • Make: BMW, Mercedez-Benz, Mercedes, Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover

  • AND Insurance group >= 18

  • AND Fuel type : Petrol, Diesel

  • AND Body type: 5 door hatchback, 4 door saloon, sports

Will not be listable on Hiyacar.

Cat N/S cars are also fine as long as:

  1. They have been repaired correctly

  2. The vehicle is registered as such with the DVLA

  3. Where applicable an MOT has been issued

Vans

For your van to be listed on our platform it must meet the following criteria:

  • it must be under 20 years old

  • it can only be up to insurance group 20

  • have a current value of under £40,000

  • have a weight of no more than 3.5 tonnes

  • it can have a maximum of 5 seats
