Good to know when selling your car in St. Wendel

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

Local market conditions

  • With just 240 commuters to Luxembourg (2.2% of all Saarland's cross-border commuters, 2023 figures), the St. Wendel district has by far the lowest commuter rate in Saarland — well below Merzig-Wadern (66.5%) or Saarlouis (19.7%).
  • St. Wendel has been the founding location and, to this day, the headquarters of the Globus retail group since 1828, one of the region's biggest employers — a sign of comparatively stable local purchasing power.
  • According to the Federal Environment Agency, there is not a single low-emission zone anywhere in Saarland — unlike in many towns in North Rhine-Westphalia or Hesse, an older diesel from St. Wendel doesn't automatically lose value as a result.

Tips for sellers from St. Wendel

  • The St. Wendel registration office operates strictly by appointment, often with a wait of several weeks — selling to a buyer who handles the deregistration directly means you can skip this trip to the authorities altogether.
  • Saarlouis is just under 50 minutes from St. Wendel (B41/A1) — for a car that's no longer roadworthy, say with engine trouble or without a valid MOT, free on-site collection makes more sense than driving there yourself.
  • Cars from St. Wendel statistically have fewer of the extreme commuter mileages seen on cars from Saarlouis or Merzig-Wadern, while also benefiting from the region's lack of a low-emission zone — both are fair selling points worth mentioning, without talking the price up unrealistically.

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.
