Vehicles have a harder life out here than the odometer suggests. A Ford that’s spent years on farm tracks, rutted lanes and muddy yards can be in worse shape at sixty thousand miles than a motorway car at twice that, and the two wear out in completely different places.
Our base is Medway City Estate in Rochester, at the far end of the county from you. Getting down to Tenterden means the A228 to the M20, along towards Ashford and then the A28 south-west into the town, and the villages beyond it are no further out of our way than the town itself.
You get a valuation on the whole vehicle, whatever state it’s in, with no obligation and nothing to put right first. Because we only buy Fords, we know what a worked-out Ranger, a Transit that’s stopped earning or a barn-stored Fiesta is genuinely worth, rather than pricing everything at scrap weight.

We collect from farms, tracks and yards around Tenterden
The question we get most from this part of Kent is whether we’ll actually come out, and whether we can reach the vehicle once we do. Yes to both.
We collect from farms, smallholdings, barns, field edges, private tracks and village yards, not just driveways, and there is no surcharge for the distance and no deduction for recovery. We cover Tenterden and the Weald around it, including St Michaels, Rolvenden, Benenden, Biddenden, High Halden, Woodchurch, Appledore, Wittersham, Hawkhurst, Cranbrook and Headcorn, along with the farms and hamlets in between.
What does help is knowing the access before we set off. If the Ford is up a rutted track, boxed in behind other vehicles, sitting on grass, or hasn’t moved in years and won’t roll, tell us when you enquire. We’ll bring the right transport and the right kit rather than turning up and finding we can’t shift it. Photographs of the approach are worth more than a description.
What goes wrong to Fords around Tenterden
The vehicle mix out here is unlike anywhere else in Kent, and so is the way things fail.
Rangers and Transits used on farms and sites take a beating that mileage never captures. Clutches, gearboxes, turbos and suspension go long before the same parts would on a road car, because the work is heavy, the surfaces are rough and a lot of it involves towing. The Ranger in particular reaches us more often from this corner of the county than from anywhere else we cover.
Then there’s what the lanes do underneath. Country roads get heavily salted through winter, and mud packed into the underside of a vehicle holds that moisture against the metal for months rather than washing off. Sills, subframes and brake lines suffer quietly and it usually surfaces with no warning at all, as a structural MOT failure. The other category is the Fords that simply stopped: parked in a barn, a yard or a field edge, batteries flat, brakes seized solid, tyres perished. Owners are often surprised those are worth anything. They generally are.
Some of the most common reasons Tenterden owners contact us:
- Rangers and working pickups worn out by farm and site use
- Transits with clutch, gearbox, turbo or EcoBlue diesel failure
- Structural corrosion from salted lanes and mud packed underneath
- Fords parked up for years with flat batteries, seized brakes and perished tyres
- Wet belt failure on 1.0 EcoBoost Fiestas, Focuses and Pumas
- Powershift gearbox faults, accident damage and non-runners
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 around Tenterden
More than most owners out here assume, and rarely just scrap money.
Model, mileage, condition, the fault and how the vehicle has been used all count. A Ranger or a Transit that’s been worked hard but maintained properly is worth considerably more than a neglected one with fewer miles on it. A Fiesta condemned on corrosion is still carrying an engine, a gearbox, an interior and a set of panels that somebody needs. And a Ford that’s been sitting in a barn for five years is very often worth more than the owner expects, because demand for parts doesn’t disappear just because a vehicle has stopped moving.
We only buy Fords, so we know what each model is genuinely worth with each fault on it, and we price what’s left in the vehicle 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.
We buy the ones nobody else will
A Ford that hasn’t started since before last winter, sitting on grass behind a gate, is exactly the vehicle most buyers quietly decline. Some won’t take a pickup at all; others take one look at the address and stop replying.
None of it is unusual to us. Cars, vans and pickups all come through here, and a good share of them haven’t turned a wheel in years, so a seized, mud-caked Ranger at the back of a yard is an ordinary job rather than an awkward favour. Tenterden and the Weald around it are covered as standard, and there is nothing extra to pay for reaching them.

How selling to We Buy Broken Fords Works
On a working Ford, downtime costs money too
Repair decisions work differently when the vehicle is part of how you earn.
Out here the invoice is only part of it. The specialist who can actually do the job may be a fair distance away, which means recovery and a wait before a penny goes on the fault itself, and every day a Ranger or a Transit sits waiting is a day of work it isn’t doing. That standstill is a real cost and it belongs in the sum.
The comparison itself stays simple: 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, and on a hard-worked vehicle it very often is, because one major failure can outrun the whole thing’s value. If it’s a sound vehicle with years of work left in it, repairing may still be the right call, and we’ll say so.
Get a valuation on it exactly as it is and put the two numbers side by side before you commit. Our sister garage Medway Vehicle Services can diagnose the fault properly first if you’d rather know precisely what you’re dealing with.
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.
