Breaker Value API: Turn a VIN or UK reg into a sold breaker value.

Status: Early access (v1). Docs: https://poxa.co.uk/product/breaker-value/api. OpenAPI: https://poxa.co.uk/product/breaker-value/api/openapi.json. Updated 2026-10-12.

The Breaker Value API from POXA, now in early access, turns a VIN or UK registration into a sold breaker value: what a car is worth to a breaker when its used parts are sold. For every part it returns a cautious low and an average UK sold price over the last 12 months, how many sold, and a demand rating from 1 to 10 with an estimated time to sell. It adds them up into a low and an average breaker value for the car and takes off any damaged areas you report. It is designed to use the same vehicle matching as Breaker Value search on poxa.co.uk, which is live today, but to price each part from UK sold prices only.

The Breaker Value API is in early access. We are opening it to a small number of teams first. Request access and we reply within one business day. Need a value today? Breaker Value search on the website is live, with 10 free searches a month.

At a glance

  • Input: A 17-character VIN or a UK registration. Optional: damaged areas, a minimum part value, VAT basis, your own reference.
  • Output: Every part with a cautious low and an average UK sold price, its sales count, active listing count and demand rating. Totals for the car. Damaged parts taken off.
  • Price basis: Sold prices only: what parts actually sold for in the UK in the last 12 months. Not asking prices. Not scrap value.
  • Demand: A 1 to 10 score per part, a hot, mid or low tier, and an estimated number of days to sell. Rolled up for the whole car.
  • Speed: Designed as one call per car with no polling, reading prices from tables rebuilt every night. Batch endpoint for auction lists.
  • Your data: Optional. A cross-reference with your own yard stock and sales is planned for early access teams.
  • Format: JSON over HTTPS. Prices in GBP. OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
  • Status: Early access (v1). Keys on request.

Authentication

Every request carries your API key as a bearer token. Keys are tied to your POXA account. Live keys start bv_live_.

When we issue your early access key you will also get a test key (bv_test_). It is planned to return the four example responses on this page at no cost, so you can build against the response shape first.

Keep keys on your server. Never put them in a web page or an app that runs on a customer’s device.

Field Type Required Default Description
vin string One of vin or reg - 17-character VIN. Spaces are ignored. Letters I, O and Q are not used in VINs.
reg string One of vin or reg - UK registration (number plate). Spaces are ignored. We look up the VIN for you.
damage array No [] Areas of the car that are damaged. Parts in a listed area come off the value. See Damage.
damage[].area string Yes - powertrain, front_end, doors, body, interior, wheels, rear or misc.
damage[].side string No both nearside (left), offside (right) or both. Parts that come in pairs only come off on that side.
min_part_value number No 40 Leave out parts whose average sold price is under this many pounds. 0 counts every part with sales.
vat string No inc inc returns prices as buyers paid them. ex returns them with VAT removed (divided by 1.20).
detail string No full full lists every part. summary leaves out parts and removed.
reference string No - Your stock or lot number, up to 64 characters. Returned as sent. Planned: with a connected yard system, your stock number will let us compare the valuation with what the car really makes.

Damage

Every part in a damaged area comes off the value. The response lists what came off and how much it was worth, so you can check it.

The side field takes nearside (the UK passenger side, left) or offside (the driver’s side, right). Parts that come in pairs, such as wings, headlights, doors, mirrors and rear lights, only come off on that side. Parts that span the car, such as the bonnet, bumpers and tailgate, come off whichever side you give.

Send as many areas as you need. Leave damage out, or send an empty list, for an undamaged car.

area What comes off
powertrain Engine, gearbox, turbo, alternator, starter motor, driveshafts, fuel pump, A/C compressor, exhaust and cat.
front_end Bonnet, front bumper, front wings, headlights, grille, radiator pack, slam panel and front subframe.
doors Doors, door glass, door cards, door mirrors, window regulators, locks and handles.
body Roof, sunroof, rear quarters, sills, fuel flap and parcel shelf.
interior Seats, dashboard, steering wheel, airbags, head unit or screen, instrument cluster, heater blower and controls.
wheels Alloy wheels, brakes and ABS pump, steering rack, suspension, hubs and wishbones.
rear Rear bumper, tailgate or boot lid, rear lights, rear wiper and tow bar.
misc Engine ECU, body control modules, wiper motors and sensors.

Response

Field Type Description
id string Valuation ID. Fetch it again for 30 days.
object string Always breaker_value.
created string When the valuation ran (ISO 8601, UTC).
reference string | null Your reference, as sent.
vehicle object What the VIN or reg decoded to: vin, reg, make, model, generation, variant, year, first_registered, body, fuel, engine (size_cc, power_ps, code), transmission, drive and colour.
value.lowest number Breaker value at the cautious low end: the sum of qty × lowest for every part counted.
value.average number Breaker value at the typical sold price: the sum of qty × average.
value.parts / value.pieces integer Part lines counted, and the number of pieces (a pair of headlights is one line, two pieces).
value.currency / value.vat string Always GBP. inc or ex, as requested.
value.by_sell_time array The same totals for parts expected to sell within 90, 180 and 365 days. A part showing sells_in_days 365 is expected to take a year or more and is only in the full totals.

How we value a car

  1. Identify: We decode the VIN, or look it up from the reg.
  2. Match: We work out the parts fitted to that car. Engine and gearbox parts only come from the same engine and gearbox.
  3. Price: Each part is priced from what it has actually sold for in the UK over the last 12 months. One-off highs and lows are left out.
  4. Filter: Parts with no recent sales, and parts worth less than your minimum part value (£40 unless you say otherwise), are left out.
  5. Damage: Parts in the areas you report come off.
  6. Total: What is left is added up into the breaker value of the car.
  • A breaker value is what the parts have sold for. It is not a guarantee of what you will make and not a max bid. You still have to strip, store, list and sell them, and not every part sells.
  • Coverage is not 100%. If there is not enough sold evidence to value a car, we return insufficient_data and say so, and you are not charged.

Demand rating

The score shows how quickly a part sells. Strong recent sales and little competing stock score high.

sells_in_days is our estimate of how long one takes to sell. It is capped at 365, so 365 means a year or more, and that part is not in the 365-day total. It is an estimate, not a promise.

demand.score is the score for the whole car, with valuable parts counting for more.

tier score What it means
hot 8 to 10 Strong sales against the stock listed. Usually sells within weeks.
mid 4 to 7 Steady sales against the stock listed. Usually sells within a few months.
low 1 to 3 Weak sales against the stock listed. Can sit on the shelf.

Your yard data (optional, planned)

The API works without it. Every valuation is priced from POXA’s market data whether or not you connect anything.

Planned for early access teams: with a connected yard management system, each valuation will also show which parts you already hold, which you have sold in the last 12 months and at what average price, and how much of the car’s value sits in parts you already sell. A connected online store will add the parts you already have listed.

We are also building analytics that compare each valuation with what the car really made: how much of its revenue came from the parts we valued, parts not pulled that would have sold, and parts pulled that did not sell. They will need a connected yard system and your stock number in reference. Without a connection there is nothing to compare against, so there are no analytics. The valuation itself is the same either way.

Field Type Description
connect.connected boolean false today. Planned: true once your account has a yard system or online store connected.
connect.systems array What is connected: yard_system, online_store or both.
connect.parts_in_stock integer Part lines on this car you already hold in stock.
connect.parts_sold_by_you_12m integer Part lines on this car you have sold in the last 12 months.
connect.revenue_overlap number Share of the car’s average value in part lines you have sold in the last 12 months, from 0 to 1.
connect.analytics_available boolean Planned: true when this valuation will be compared with what the car makes once it is broken. Will need a connected yard system and your stock number in reference.
parts[].yours object Per part: in_stock, sold_12m and your_average.

Worked examples

These are real VINs of scrapped cars. The figures were worked out on 12 October 2026 from POXA's UK sold parts data for cars of the same model, engine and body. Each example lists the main parts only, 17 to 22 lines per car, so its totals cover those parts only. A response from the API is matched part by part for the exact car, so its parts list and totals will differ.

Batch

For auction lists, send up to 500 cars in one request. The batch runs in the background. Poll it, or give us a webhook_url and we post the results when it finishes.

Each car in a batch takes the same fields as a single valuation. min_part_value, vat and detail at the top of the batch are the defaults for every car. Results come back with detail summary unless you ask for full. Each car valued counts as one valuation.

A batch is queued, then running, then complete. GET /v1/breaker-value/batch/{id} returns its status and a results list with one entry per car: your reference and either the valuation or an error. The webhook receives the same body once the batch is complete.

FAQ

What is a breaker value?

A breaker value is what a vehicle is worth when it is broken for parts: the money a breaker (a vehicle dismantler or ATF) can expect from selling its used parts. It is usually well above scrap value, which is priced on the weight of metal. POXA works it out from UK parts market data for comparable cars.

How do I find the breaker value of a car from its VIN or registration?

Type it into Breaker Value search on poxa.co.uk. It is live, with 10 free searches a month, and gives an expected range for the car and each part, with a demand rating. The Breaker Value API, in early access, is designed to take the same VIN or reg (POST /v1/breaker-value) and return every part with its low and average UK sold price, a demand rating and the total for the car.

Are the prices sold prices or asking prices?

The Breaker Value API, in early access, is designed to use sold prices only: what parts actually sold for in the UK in the last 12 months. One-off highs and lows are left out. Breaker Value search on the website gives an expected range instead.

How does damage change the value?

In the Breaker Value API, in early access, you tell us which areas are damaged, such as front_end, or doors on the offside. Parts in that area come off the value. With a side, parts that come in pairs, such as doors and mirrors, only come off on that side. The response lists what came off and how much it was worth. In Breaker Value search you click a damaged group off instead.

What is the demand rating?

A score from 1 to 10 for each part that shows how quickly it sells. 8 to 10 is hot, 4 to 7 is mid and 1 to 3 is low. Breaker Value search shows it today. The Breaker Value API, in early access, returns it for each part with an estimated number of days to sell, plus a score for the whole car.

Do I need to connect my database to use the Breaker Value API?

No. The Breaker Value API, in early access, values any car without it. For early access teams we are building an optional cross-reference with your own yard stock and sales, and analytics that compare each valuation with what the car really made. Those will need a connected yard system.

Is the breaker value what I should pay for the car?

No. It is what the parts sell for, not a max bid. You still have to strip, store, list and sell them, and not every part sells. Use the low figure and the demand rating to decide what to bid.

How fast is the Breaker Value API?

The Breaker Value API is in early access. It is designed as one call per car with no polling, reading prices from tables rebuilt every night rather than searching live. We will publish response times once it is live. For auction lists there is a batch endpoint.

How do I get a Breaker Value API key?

The Breaker Value API is in early access. Request access on poxa.co.uk and we reply within one business day. Pricing is agreed with each early access team.
