Get your car from Homburg valued now

Selling your car in Homburg: from the university and Michelin town, the A8/A620 takes you straight to our dealership in Saarlouis in around 40 minutes. For higher-value cars, the trip pays off twice over — we specialise in well-kept used cars and premium models, though we're happy to buy any car, no exceptions.

Many Homburg residents sell us their second car, an ex-lease return, or a diesel due for its next MOT. You'll get a firm offer, immediate payment and a clean contract with proof of deregistration.

Good to know when selling your car in Homburg

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

Local market conditions

  • Homburg sits in the only German state with no low-emission zone at all — older diesels without a green sticker don't lose value here through looming driving bans the way they do in many other cities.
  • As the county town of the Saarpfalz district, which borders the French département of Moselle directly (the Saargemünd/Sarreguemines area), Homburg is home to one of the region's biggest employers in the Saarland University Hospital (UKS, around 5,500 staff).
  • Michelin is ending new truck-tyre production at its Homburg site (1,323 employees) by the end of 2024, and semi-finished goods production by the end of 2025, affecting 843 jobs — a noticeable industrial shake-up locally that could bring extra company and private vehicles onto the used-car market.

Tips for sellers from Homburg

  • The registration office is right there in Homburg (Am Forum 1) — but you don't need to go yourself: Automobil-Galerie-SLS in Saarlouis takes care of the deregistration and export paperwork entirely, sparing you the trip to the authorities.
  • Since no low-emission zone applies in Saarland, selling your diesel without a green sticker is entirely normal here — unlike in cities with restricted driving zones, you needn't fear a price cut on that account.
  • Homburg to Saarlouis is around 40 minutes (58 km) via the A6/A8 — for cars without a valid MOT, or with accident or engine damage that you're not comfortable driving yourself, our free on-site collection beats driving it there yourself.

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.

Do I need to deregister my car beforehand?

No. You can drive to us with the car still registered — we take care of deregistering it with the licensing authority after the purchase, and you'll receive confirmation of deregistration.
