Can You Sell an American, Canadian or Japanese Import Car in Dubai?
Yes, you can sell an American, Canadian, Japanese or European import car in Dubai. Imported cars are bought and sold every day. Their value depends on condition, mileage, service history and accident history, just like GCC cars, and some buyers may price them slightly lower if the history is unclear. Carology buys every spec, values imports fairly, completes the RTA transfer and pays you in full on the spot.
What affects the price of an import
- Accident and title history (a clean history matters most)
- Condition, mileage and service records
- How well the cooling system copes with UAE summers
- Demand for the model in the UAE
Does it need to be GCC spec to sell?
No. Plenty of buyers want imports, especially well-equipped American and Japanese models. A clear history and good condition close most of the gap with GCC cars.
How to sell it quickly
When you sell to Carology you are paid in full before you leave, by bank transfer or manager's cheque. The price we agree is the price you get, with no last-minute haggling and no "we'll transfer it next week".
