Car buying in Creutzwald: few French towns sit closer to our dealership — from Creutzwald, it's just around 25 minutes across the border to Saarlouis. Nowhere is the road to a German dealer price shorter.

We buy vehicles of every make with a Carte Grise, offer free valuations and pay instantly. Even without a valid Contrôle Technique, with a few scratches, or with high mileage — just drop by, or fill in our form beforehand.

Good to know when selling your car in Creutzwald

Low-emission zoneNo low-emission zone – no diesel driving ban, no emissions sticker required.

Local market conditions

In the Forbach employment area, which includes Creutzwald, 22% of all workers commute across the border into Germany or Luxembourg, according to INSEE — high mileage is the norm here, not a barrier to selling.
According to service-public.gouv.fr, anyone selling their car to a motor trade professional (garage, dealership) doesn't need to provide a valid Contrôle Technique — unlike when selling to a private individual.
With the La Houve pit, which closed on 23 April 2004, Creutzwald was the last active coal-mining site in France — the ongoing economic transition in the Bassin houiller still shapes a price-conscious local used-car market today.

Tips for sellers from Creutzwald

Even with engine trouble, accident damage, or no valid Contrôle Technique, you can still sell your car: under French law, selling to a professional buyer removes the requirement to provide a valid roadworthiness test — saving you an extra appointment and the cost.
Since the Moselle prefecture stopped offering registration services at the counter back in 2017, with everything now handled online via ANTS/FranceConnect, it's a real advantage to have the buyer take care of the transfer and export paperwork entirely, rather than working through the online process yourself.
Crossing the border is well worth it: Saarlouis is easy to reach via the toll-free A320, which connects directly to the German A6, and unlike many large German cities, Saarland has no low-emission zone at all — so a missing emissions sticker never counts against you when selling.

Frequently asked questions about car buying

How does the car buying process at automobil-ankauf.de work?

You fill in our form (it takes under two minutes) and we get back to you shortly with an assessment. We then inspect your vehicle at our dealership in Saarlouis — or at your location by arrangement. If we agree, you get a fixed price, a legally sound purchase contract and instant payment on handover.

How quickly will I get my money?

Immediately on handover. We pay by real-time transfer — the money is usually in your account within seconds, before you even leave our dealership.

Do you also buy cars without a valid MOT (TÜV)?

Yes. A valid roadworthiness test (Hauptuntersuchung) is not a requirement — the vehicle's condition is simply factored into the valuation. We also buy vehicles that are no longer roadworthy, by arrangement.

Can I sell if I still have an outstanding loan or lease?

Yes. We settle the outstanding balance directly with your bank or leasing company and offset it transparently against the purchase price.
