How to Trade in a Car
If you are in the market for your next vehicle and want to part ways with your current ride, then you're probably wondering how to trade in a car. At Andy Mohr Volkswagen, we are here to break down everything you need to know to make the trade-in process simple and rewarding near Indianapolis, Avon, and Plainfield, IN.
How to Boost Your Trade-In Value
Regular routine maintenance is essential for boosting your car's market value. By sticking to the maintenance schedules outlined in your owner's manual and promptly addressing any necessary repairs, you can ensure that your vehicle remains in top condition.
Take the time to fix noticeable dents, dings, or scratches. These minor repairs can enhance the general outlook of your car, making it even more attractive to potential buyers or even the dealership itself.
Keeping a full-service record of your car is also very important. Though some of that information may come up on a CARFAX® report, having records of when you changed your fluids, rotated your tires, serviced your engine, and so on shows how much time and effort you have put into maintaining your vehicle.
These steps can make a big difference when it comes to maximizing your trade-in value. A little extra effort now can translate into better trade-in offers, giving you more value to put toward your next car. If you're ready to take the next step, bring your car to us for a quick and fair trade-in evaluation—we'll help you get the best possible return on your investment.
Find Out How Much Your Current Car Is Worth
Our Value Your Trade tool is a great way to understand your vehicle's market value better. This easy-to-use online tool allows you to enter specifics about the make, model, year, mileage, and condition of your current vehicle and get an estimate of its value.
By being specific with this information, you might get a little closer to what you could get when trading in your car. Remember, the more you can tell us, the more accurate your trade-in value estimate will be.

When trading your car, you’ll need to bring the model to the dealer to have it assessed. One of our team members will look over your model to check its condition and do some research into its history and market value to determine its worth.
While we handle that, you can look through our vehicle inventory to find something that suits your needs. Whether you’re looking for a new or used model, you’ll have plenty of excellent vehicles to choose from.
