Car buying for Luxembourg: from the Grand Duchy, the A13/A8 brings you to us in Saarlouis in around an hour. We buy vehicles with Luxembourg registration — from the commuter's diesel to the premium SUV.

As a German dealership close to the border, we handle the entire process, export formalities included. You get a firm offer and your money the moment you hand the car over. We're happy to advise in German, French or English.

Good to know when selling your car in Luxemburg

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

Local market conditions

  • With around 681 to 698 cars per 1,000 residents, Luxembourg has the highest car ownership density in the EU (Eurostat/ACEA) — a huge automotive market, shaped in large part by company and lease vehicles.
  • Since the 2025 tax reform (a flat 2% benefit-in-kind rate for non-fully-electric company cars), new company-car registrations have fallen by 4.7% while private new registrations have risen by 5.7% — more and more people in Luxembourg are now buying their car privately rather than through their employer.
  • When selling or exporting a vehicle registered in Luxembourg, the SNCA must be notified within 5 working days, and a separate export plate must also be requested from the SNCA for any permanent departure abroad.

Tips for sellers from Luxemburg

  • For a sale abroad, you'll need an export plate from the SNCA — let the buyer take this errand off your hands rather than queuing at the SNCA counter yourself (tel. 26 626-400, Mon-Fri 7.30am-4.30pm).
  • If your car's SNCT inspection (Luxembourg's equivalent of the MOT) has expired, you're no longer allowed to drive it freely — only directly to the test centre. A collection service isn't just convenient in that case, it's often the only legal way to get the car to the buyer in Saarlouis.
  • Luxembourg currently has no low-emission zone and no diesel driving ban, but older diesels or cars without a valid inspection are still hard to sell on the tight local market — on the German buying market, often geared towards export, they frequently still fetch a fair price.

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 you also buy vehicles from France or Luxembourg?

Yes. We buy vehicles registered with a French Carte Grise or a Luxembourg registration and handle the entire export paperwork. A valid Contrôle Technique is not required to sell to us. Advice available in French on request.
