Carvendo

Anyone who has ever looked for a car online knows it: you open Marktplaats and at first it seems like the perfect place. Thousands of cars, endless options, something for everyone. But you soon notice that it is often a completely different story. You start scrolling and before you know it, you're lost in a maze of ads. Old cars sit next to almost new ones, private individuals alongside professional dealers, offers that seem almost too good to be true, and descriptions that raise questions rather than provide answers. It feels overwhelming, like walking through a busy market where everyone shouts something at the same time. Where do you start? And, more importantly, what can you actually trust?

Carvendo is about trust

That feeling is exactly why Carvendo was born. Because buying a car is not an ordinary purchase, like a pair of shoes or groceries. It's one of the biggest purchases of your life. It's not just about money, but above all about trust, peace of mind, and the certainty that the choice you make will keep you driving safely and comfortably in the coming years. Too many people had to figure everything out for themselves, tried to separate the good from the bad, and bore all the risks themselves. Carvendo thought: there must be a better way to do this.

Carvendo was built with that idea: making car buying easy, safe and human. Instead of overloading you with thousands of random ads, we carefully select each car. Age, mileage, maintenance history, everything counts. If a car does not meet our strict requirements, it will not enter the platform. And because we know that trust goes beyond beautiful photos and descriptions, every car comes with a warranty and a maintenance-free period. This way, you won't be faced with expensive surprises right after your purchase.

At Carvendo, you don't buy blindly

But perhaps the biggest difference is this: at Carvendo, you don't buy blindly. On Marktplaats, you only have photos and texts, and you have to hope that the seller is honest. At Carvendo, you only buy after a test drive. You can test drive at the dealer or usually at your home. Only when you have driven the car, experienced it and are completely satisfied will the purchase become final. A fair and transparent process, just as it should be.

In addition, we know that a car is more than just a vehicle. Financing, insurance, paperwork, you normally have to arrange all these things yourself. On Marktplaats, that means endless calls and emails with banks, insurers and brokers. At Carvendo, you can arrange everything directly via our platform, in one place. It's faster, safer and saves you a lot of hassle.

And then there is the convenience. On Marktplaats, buying a car often means taking a long trip across the country just to see if the car is really what you're looking for. At Carvendo, you choose: do you pick up the car at the dealer, or do you just have it delivered to your home? Imagine opening your front door and there is not a package, but your new car. That's what we mean by a great experience.

So the difference with Marktplaats is not only in the functions, but mainly in how you feel during the process. At Marktplaats, you have to puzzle, weigh doubts and assess risks. At Carvendo, you get peace, clarity and support from the first moment to long after you've driven away. So you can focus on what really matters: finding the car that's right for you, while we take care of the rest.

Buying a car should never feel like gambling. It should be an experience you can look back on with confidence and joy. That's exactly why Carvendo exists: not just a website with cars, but a partner who understands that your purchase is about more than just metal and wheels. It's about trust, freedom and the adventures to come.

5 reasons why Carvendo is different from Marktplaats:

‍Selective offerings instead of chaos‍

Everything is mixed up on Marktplaats: top used cars, but also cars without a maintenance history, with questionable mileage or no warranty. At Carvendo, we make a conscious selection: cars up to 15 years old, up to 175,000 km and with a 12-month warranty. This way, you know that you are always looking for a reliable offer.

Not only buying, also financing and insuring

On Marktplaats, you only buy the car. Financing or insurance? You have to arrange that yourself. At Carvendo, everything is possible at once. Within 10 minutes, you can arrange financing and insurance, so you can get on the road faster and carefree.

No complicated return procedures

Are you buying on Marktplaats? Then there is no “no good, money back”. At Carvendo, you only buy after a test drive, at the dealer or at your home. Honest, simple and hassle-free.

Transparency in everything

On Marktplaats, you often have to ask: has the car been maintained, is the mileage correct, what is covered by warranty? At Carvendo, you can see everything immediately: available maintenance history, options, photos and warranty conditions. In addition, each car is checked according to our own checklist.

Delivery where you want

On Marktplaats, buying usually means picking it up yourself, often miles away. At Carvendo, you choose: pick up at the car company or delivered to your home. Just as easy as a package, but a very special package.

‍

Conclusion

Buying a car doesn't have to be a stressful quest. It should be an experience you can look back on with confidence and joy. That's what Carvendo offers: a platform that looks further, understands you and gives you certainty. That is the difference with Marktplaats.
