Place a listing →Frequently asked questions
What is my car worth?
It depends on make, model, year, mileage, condition and equipment. Through Carnet you can get real offers from dealers, not an estimate.
Do I have to take my car to a garage?
No. Only when you accept an offer do you arrange where and when the car is inspected and collected.
Do I need a technical inspection to sell?
Selling to a private buyer requires a technical inspection, but no longer in Flanders from 1 January 2027. When you sell to a dealer, the dealer usually takes care of it.
What about my number plate?
It stays yours. After the sale you return it to the DIV or transfer it to your next car.

Selling a car in Chimay
Old age is no shame for a car in Chimay. With an average of 17.2 years, the municipality has the second oldest vehicle fleet in the province of Hainaut and the seventh oldest vehicle fleet in Belgium: 5.5 years above the Belgian average of 11.7 years. At the end of 2025, 24.2% of the 8,885 registered vehicles were over 20 years old, against 12.6% in Belgium. The fleet is older than in Couvin (16.3), Froidchapelle (16.7) and Philippeville (14.9), and only Momignies (18.1) goes further. There are also 833 agricultural vehicles, 9.4% of the total. Diesel accounts for 34.1% of passenger cars throughout Hainaut.
Chimay has its own inspection centre, and there is another nearby in Mariembourg (Rue Duc Saint Simon 17). The inspection is mandatory for a sale to a private buyer, whereas a dealer usually handles it, which is handy with an older car.
Through Carnet you request a free offer, also in sub-municipalities such as Baileux, Bourlers, Forges, Lompret, Salles and Virelles. Four garages from Chimay are on Carnet, 11 are within about 15 km, and all of them can bid on your car, just like dealers from beyond. Bidders cannot see your name or number, and within 24 hours we call you with the best offer. You decide. Rather negotiate with a private buyer yourself? Listing on the marketplace is free.
