The used car market in Gijón
Gijón is the most populated city in Asturias and has an active second-hand car market, fuelled by a diversified economy spanning industry, services, and tourism. The city has a strong industrial heritage and an established vehicle culture: private cars remain the primary mode of transport for most of the population.
The profile of the Gijón buyer is pragmatic: utility cars and family saloons have good turnover, and compact SUVs have gained presence in recent years. The proximity to Oviedo, the regional capital, creates a certain complementarity between the two markets, with buyers searching in both cities simultaneously.
Before listing, the first step is to know precisely how much your car is worth in the current market.
A key difference compared to other cities in the plan: the Gijón LEZ (Low Emission Zone) has a restriction model very different from most. It does not ban access based on emissions stickers permanently, but rather activates restrictions according to air pollution levels. This has direct implications for the value of cars without a sticker.
The Gijón LEZ: current situation and what it implies for your sale
The Gijón LEZ is one of the most peculiar in Spain due to its operating model. Unlike cities like Bilbao, Vitoria, or Córdoba, where cars without stickers are permanently banned from access, Gijón has opted for a system of dynamic restrictions linked to the Action Protocol for Air Pollution Episodes in the West Zone.
How it works is as follows: all vehicles with an environmental sticker (B, C, ECO, and zero emissions) can access the LEZ after registering on the municipal platform. Vehicles without a sticker can also access if they are registered on that platform, on the condition that their access is blocked when the pollution protocol is activated at level 2 (alarm). In levels 0 and 1 (preventive and advisory), all registered vehicles can circulate.
The key nuance: as of June 2026, the municipal vehicle registration platform for Gijón is still not fully operational. This means that, in practice, fines for unauthorised access are not being issued. The LEZ formally exists, but its real impact on traffic is still very limited.
Additionally, any vehicle can access the LEZ if it belongs to a registered resident, a user with a garage space, or someone whose workplace is within the zone, regardless of the sticker.
What this means for anyone selling in Gijón: the impact of the LEZ on the value of cars without a sticker is currently minimal. The registration platform is not operational, fines are not being issued, and the dynamic restriction model is less strict than in other cities. For a local buyer, the environmental sticker matters less in Gijón than in Vitoria, Bilbao, or Córdoba.
This situation may change once the municipal platform is fully operational and the system begins to function normally. It is advisable to follow updates on the Gijón City Council municipal website to know the definitive activation schedule.
ITP in Asturias: how much the buyer pays
The ITP (Property Transfer Tax) in the Principality of Asturias for second-hand vehicles has a general rate of 4% on the fiscal value of the car for most passenger vehicles. For passenger cars and off-road vehicles exceeding 15 fiscal horsepower (CVF), the rate increases to 8%.
Most standard passenger cars on the market fall below 15 fiscal horsepower, so the 4% rate is the most common in private sales in Gijón. For higher-powered cars, the 8% rate may be a factor that the buyer considers when negotiating.
The process is managed through the Tax Administration of the Principality of Asturias (Tributas), and the form to be submitted is Model 620. The deadline is 30 business days from the signing of the sale contract.
To give you an idea of the actual cost: if your car's fiscal value is 10,000 euros and it is under 15 fiscal horsepower, the buyer will pay 400 euros. If it exceeds 15 fiscal horsepower, they will pay 800 euros.
Options for selling your car in Gijón
Classified portals. Wallapop, Coches.net, Milanuncios, and AutoScout24 allow you to reach private buyers in Gijón and the surrounding Asturias area. Since the LEZ restrictions are largely non-operational, the environmental sticker is not a deal-breaker for most local buyers.
Local dealerships and traders. Gijón has an active offer of direct purchase points, with the presence of national networks and local businesses in the municipality and in industrial estates on the outskirts. The advantage is immediacy; the disadvantage is that the price deducts the resale margin.
National direct purchase platforms. Companies like Compramostucoche, Flexicar, or Clicars have a presence in the area or in Oviedo. Before accepting any offer, it is wise to fully understand what is behind the process.
Dealcar. Your car goes out to compete among more than 1,000 verified professional dealerships across Spain. Free for the seller, home collection, and payment before the car is handed over.
Selling on portals from Gijón: what to expect
Listing from Gijón has the advantage of a market with effectively no active LEZ restrictions in practice: any car can be advertised without real driving constraints at the moment. For cars with a sticker, advertising is simpler. For cars without a sticker, there is no need to warn about active restrictions.
When signing the contract between private individuals, it is mandatory to do so in duplicate. If you need a template, the Dealcar sales contract template is available for free.
Dealerships and used-car dealers in Gijón
Gijón has an established offer of used-car dealerships. Before accepting any offer, ask for valuations in more than one place: receiving multiple offers always improves the final price. Bring the car clean, with a valid MOT (ITV), and with all the documentation ready.
Specific procedures in Gijón
The ITP is handled by the buyer through Tributas (Tax Administration of the Principality of Asturias). The form to be settled is Model 620, within 30 business days from the signing of the contract. This is not your responsibility as a seller, but it is useful to explain it to the buyer to avoid delays in the ownership transfer.
The change of ownership is processed at the DGT. The Provincial Traffic Headquarters of Asturias covers Gijón and is located in Oviedo, on Calle General Elorza. It can also be managed online or through a local agency (gestoría), avoiding the trip to the capital.
Notify the DGT of the sale. As a seller, you are obliged to report the transfer of the vehicle to prevent future fines from arriving in your name. For a complete review of all the steps, the article on procedures for selling a car covers every process in detail.
