CarWorth gives you a fast, plain-English estimate of what a car will cost to fix and what it's worth — before you commit to buying it. Whether you're eyeing a salvage lot, a private sale or a trade-in, CarWorth turns a few basic facts into: • Repair notice — the likely repair items for the damage, with parts and labour cost ranges priced against current market listings. • Known model faults — common, model-specific issues to watch for, so you're not caught out. • Market-value estimate — an indicative resale range for the car's age, mileage and condition. • Chat — ask follow-up questions about any part of the estimate. HOW IT WORKS 1. Enter the basics — make, model, year, mileage, gearbox and damage type — or just type a UK number plate and let CarWorth pull the vehicle details and MOT history. 2. Get your repair and market-value estimate in seconds. 3. Chat with CarWorth to understand the figures. WHO IT'S FOR Car buyers, flippers, traders, dismantlers — anyone weighing up a repair-and-sell or repair-and-keep decision on a damaged or high-mileage car. IMPORTANT CarWorth gives indicative estimates to help you decide — not a formal valuation, inspection or repair quote. Costs for damaged vehicles vary widely, and a description or photo can't reveal hidden or structural damage. Always inspect a vehicle and get a professional quote before buying. CarWorth includes a number of free estimates each day.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: CarWorth at Free against Browser's $1.99. CarWorth also leads on ads (none vs shown). Browser's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and chart position (#191 vs unranked). On update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
