How long does a vehicle sale take?

As a guide, allow two to four weeks from instruction to collection, depending on the number of vehicles, the paperwork and buyer payment. That covers cataloguing, marketing, a viewing day, the sale and the collection window. Urgent cases can be quicker if the vehicles and paperwork are ready. The longest delays come from missing V5Cs, unsettled finance and vehicles that cannot be accessed for photographs, so deal with those first.
