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 Elsene
Elsene has seen its fleet shrink considerably: from 58,845 registered vehicles in 2015 to 41,244 at the end of 2025, a drop of 29.9%. The average age changed sharply too, from 9.2 to 13.5 years, 1.8 years above the Belgian average. Even so, 23.4% of vehicles are less than 3 years old, against 16.6% in Belgium. With that total, Elsene has the fifth largest vehicle fleet in the Brussels-Capital Region. Etterbeek (14.9), Sint-Gillis (16.8) and Sint-Joost-ten-Node (15.3) drive older cars, Brussels (13.4) and Schaarbeek (12.7) younger ones. Across the Brussels-Capital Region, 5.4% of passenger cars were electric, less than the 7.4% in Belgium.
If the buyer is private, the inspection is up to you; with a dealer it usually is not. Inspection centres nearby are in Haren, on Sylvain Dupuislaan in Anderlecht and on Bollinckxstraat in Vorst. Remember the low emission zone across the Brussels-Capital Region as well: more information at lez.brussels.
