How car valuation works in Ireland
Most valuation tools quote from periodically-updated guide books. Autoza is different: every estimate is computed from live asking prices on active Irish dealer listings, refreshed daily. That means the number reflects what the market is doing this week — not last quarter. Start with the free valuation tool, then cross-check against the Autoza Used-Car Price Index, which publishes median prices per model.
What affects your car's value
Four factors move an Irish used-car valuation most:
- Mileage — the biggest single driver, with steeper drops past 100,000 km and 150,000 km.
- NCT status — a long NCT adds value; an expired or near-due test is a negotiating lever.
- Service history — a full, stamped history can lift value by several percent.
- Local demand — the same car can be worth more in a higher-demand county. Browse used cars by county to see local pricing.

Car valuation Ireland — FAQs
How do I find out what my car is worth in Ireland?
Use Autoza’s free car valuation tool: enter your make, model, year and mileage for an instant estimate based on live asking prices from active Irish dealer listings. Then compare against what similar cars are actually listed for today — not a stale guide-book figure.
Is Autoza’s car valuation free?
Yes. The Autoza valuation tool is completely free, with no sign-up required for an estimate. It is powered by first-party price data refreshed daily from real verified-dealer listings across Ireland.
How accurate are Autoza valuations?
Autoza values cars using live, first-party data from active Irish dealer listings, refreshed daily, rather than out-of-date guide books. Accuracy is strongest for common makes and models with many comparable listings; rarer cars rely on a smaller sample, so treat those as a guide.
Does mileage affect my car’s value in Ireland?
Yes, significantly. Higher mileage lowers value, with the steepest drops around the 100,000 km and 150,000 km marks. NCT status, full service history and demand for that model in your county also move the figure up or down.
How do I value an imported car?
For an imported car, first check its Irish market value with the Autoza valuation tool, then calculate the Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) you will owe using the free VRT calculator. VRT is based on the car’s Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) and CO₂ emissions, so it must be added on top of the purchase price.
How often does Autoza update car values?
Autoza recomputes values daily from live verified-dealer listings. The figures on this page and in the valuation tool reflect the Irish market as of 23 June 2026.
