Probate Vehicle Valuations and Purchasing Across the UK and Europe
Chancery Valuations provides a combined probate vehicle valuation and purchasing service across the UK and throughout Europe. The service supports executors, solicitors and families managing estates that include vehicles and personalised number plates, offering clarity and reassurance throughout the probate process.

Vehicles and registrations frequently form part of an estate and need to be dealt with correctly during probate. Whether dealing with a single car in the UK or multiple vehicles located across Europe, Chancery Valuations offers a consistent, end-to-end approach that covers valuation for probate purposes and the realisation of assets as part of estate administration.

UK and Europe-Wide Probate Vehicle Valuation
and Purchasing

The service covers a wide range of assets, including cars, vans, motorhomes, campervans, motorcycles, classic and vintage vehicles, commercial and specialist vehicles, as well as private and personalised number plates.

All assets are valued at open market value as at the date of death, in line with HMRC requirements. The same valuation standards apply whether the vehicle or number plate is located in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland or elsewhere in Europe. As part of the combined service, vehicles and number plates can be purchased during probate without the need for insurance, a V5 logbook or a current MOT, allowing estates to progress without unnecessary administration.

Supporting Estate Administration Across Borders

Estates increasingly involve vehicles located outside the UK, particularly where the deceased lived abroad, owned overseas property or held vehicles in Europe. Chancery Valuations’ UK-wide and Europe-wide coverage allows probate vehicle matters to be handled consistently, regardless of location.
By combining valuation and purchasing within a single probate-focused service, estates can move forward efficiently without needing to arrange documentation, insurance or roadworthiness testing purely for the purpose of sale.

Trusted Coverage Across the UK and Europe

With nationwide coverage in the UK and the ability to support estates across Europe, Chancery Valuations provides a streamlined probate vehicle solution wherever assets are located. From initial valuation through to purchase as part of estate administration, the service offers clarity, consistency and professional support at every stage of the process.
