Deal sits a fair way from anywhere, and that’s much of the appeal until something expensive goes wrong. A specialist repair from here can mean a journey and a wait as well as a bill, and the first thing most people ask us is whether a buyer will genuinely travel this far for a Ford that doesn’t run.
We will, and it costs you nothing. We’re a Kent business, working out of Medway City Estate in Rochester, and the run down is the M2 and then the A2 towards Dover, turning off onto the A256 for the last stretch into Deal. There’s no distance surcharge and no deduction for recovery, so the figure we quote is the figure that lands in your account.
You get a valuation on the whole car, faults and all, with no obligation and nothing to put right first. Because we only buy Fords, we know what a Fiesta that’s failed on rust or a Kuga with a Powershift fault is genuinely worth, rather than pricing everything at scrap weight.

Where we collect broken Fords in Deal and the villages
We cover the town and everything around it, right out to the villages inland.
That includes Upper Deal, Mill Hill, Walmer, Kingsdown, Sholden and Great Mongeham, then Ringwould, Sandwich, Eastry and Worth, and the villages further in towards Eythorne and Aylesham.
We collect from wherever the Ford is sitting: a driveway, a narrow street near the seafront, a garage forecourt, a village lane, or the spot where it gave up. You never arrange recovery and you never pay for transport. If the car has been standing a long time and the brakes have seized so it won’t roll, say so when you book and we’ll bring the right equipment for it. That’s a common situation here rather than an awkward one.
The Ford faults we see around Deal
Two things shape what reaches us from this stretch of coast: the air, and the standing.
Salt off the Channel works its way underneath a car and stays there, going after the sills, brake lines and subframes with no warning at all until the day it turns up as a structural MOT failure. Welding is skilled, slow work, and on an older Fiesta or Ka the bill routinely passes what the car is worth. Corrosion rarely arrives alone, either: suspension and emissions faults tend to be found in the same test, and two or three together end most cheap cars outright.
The other pattern is Fords that have simply stopped moving. Batteries die, brakes seize solid, tyres perish and fluids turn, so a modest-mileage car that hasn’t been driven for a year can still need real work before it goes anywhere. Alongside those we get the faults everyone gets: wet belt failure on the 1.0 EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta, Focus and Puma, where Ford runs the belt inside the engine in oil rather than outside it and debris from a failing belt can starve the engine entirely, plus Powershift and automatic gearbox trouble in the Kuga and Focus.
Some of the most common reasons Deal owners contact us:
- Structural corrosion from salt air, usually found at MOT
- MOT failures where suspension, brake lines and emissions arrive together
- Fords that have stood unused, with flat batteries and seized brakes
- Wet belt failure on 1.0 EcoBoost Fiestas, Focuses and Pumas
- Powershift and automatic gearbox faults on the Kuga and Focus
- Accident damage, insurance write-offs and non-runners of every kind
Not sure what’s wrong? You don’t need to be. Tell us the symptoms and we’ll take it from there.
What your broken Ford is worth in Deal
More than most owners assume, and rarely just scrap money.
Model, mileage, specification, the fault and the condition of the rest of the car all count towards the figure. A Fiesta that’s failed on rust still has an engine, gearbox, interior and panels that people want. A well-kept Focus with one dead component is not a scrap car by any reading. A Ford that won’t start after months of standing sometimes needs nothing more than a battery.
Because we only buy Fords, we know what each model is genuinely worth with each fault on it, and we price what’s left in the car rather than writing it off on sight.
How selling your Ford works
- Tell us about the car: registration, model, rough mileage and what’s gone wrong. Photos help.
- We send you a free, no-obligation valuation.
- If you’re happy, we book a collection time that suits you.
- We collect the car, handle the DVLA paperwork, and pay by secure bank transfer, often the same day.
You never drive a broken car anywhere or pay for recovery first.
Rust and distance don't sink the offer
Two things usually cost a Deal owner money with a general buyer: the corrosion, and how far out the car is. One gets deducted for as damage, the other quietly thins out the number of people willing to come and get it.
Neither of them costs you here. Corrosion is expected on a car that’s lived this close to the Channel, so it goes into the valuation as one factor among several rather than ending the conversation. And the distance is our problem rather than yours, because Deal, Walmer, Sandwich and the villages between them are all on the list of places we already go.

How selling to We Buy Broken Fords Works
The repair quote isn't the only cost
Out here the repair decision has an extra cost built into it before anyone touches the fault.
A specialist job can mean getting the Ford to a garage that can actually do it, which is a recovery bill and a wait on top of the quote itself. That doesn’t change the maths so much as tilt it, and it’s worth putting in the sum honestly rather than discovering it afterwards.
The core comparison stays the same: what the repair costs, against what the Ford is worth as it stands today. If the quote is at or above that figure, selling normally wins. If it’s a sound car you’d keep for years, repairing may still be the right call, and we’ll tell you so rather than talk you out of it.
Most people already have the quote. The value is the number they’re missing, and getting it costs nothing. If you’d rather know exactly what’s wrong before you decide, our sister garage Medway Vehicle Services can diagnose it properly first.
No waiting around. No hidden fees.
No time wasters.
We make selling your broken Ford as simple as possible. Once you accept your offer, we handle everything, including collection from your door. Payment lands in your bank the same day we collect.
