WHY PEOPLE SELL TO US
Most vehicles we buy were never going to sell privately.
A car that has failed its WOF, been in a crash or stopped starting is hard to advertise. Buyers want to test drive it, haggle over the price, or simply never turn up. Getting it towed to a yard costs money before you have been paid anything.
We take that whole job off your hands. You tell us what the vehicle is and where it is, we make an offer, and if you accept we bring the truck to you.
- The car failed its WOF and the repair costs more than it is worth
- It was damaged in an accident and the insurer has not taken it
- You have upgraded and the old vehicle is sitting in the driveway
- You are sorting out a family member’s estate or moving house
- A work ute or van has done its last job
COMPARE YOUR OPTIONS
Private sale or a vehicle buyer?
Private sales can return more for a tidy, running vehicle. For anything else, the trade-offs look different.
| Selling privately | Selling to us | |
|---|---|---|
| Non-running or damaged | Very few buyers | Considered as standard |
| Advertising and viewings | Your time and effort | Not needed |
| Getting it to the buyer | Buyer arranges, or you pay a tow | Free removal when we buy |
| No WOF or registration | Hard to sell | Can be considered, subject to legal requirements |
| Timing | Unpredictable | Agreed with you once you accept |
FREE REMOVAL AND PAYMENT
Removal is free. Choose how you are paid.
There is no towing fee, call-out charge or deduction from the offer for collecting the vehicle. Our own truck does the pickup, whether the vehicle is in a driveway, a paddock or a work yard.
Choose cash on arrival or a bank transfer, whichever suits you. Once ownership is checked and the paperwork is signed, you are paid and the vehicle leaves with us.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Know where you stand.
How do I sell my car for cash?+
Send us the make, model, pickup address and photos using the quote form, or call 021 125 4974. We contact you with an offer. If you accept, we collect the vehicle and pay you at collection.
Do you buy damaged cars?+
Yes. We consider vehicles with body damage, mechanical faults and other problems. Describe the damage and add photos so the offer reflects it.
Do you buy cars that don’t run?+
Yes. Non-running vehicles can be loaded onto our flatbed truck. Let us know whether the wheels turn and the steering moves.
Do you buy cars without a WOF?+
Yes. A WOF is not required for us to buy a vehicle, as long as ownership is clear.
Do you buy cars without registration?+
Yes, unregistered vehicles can be considered where they can legally be sold. Because the vehicle is collected on our truck, it does not need to be driven on the road.
Do you buy old cars?+
Yes. Age alone does not rule a vehicle out. Older vehicles are usually valued on parts and materials.
Do you buy accident-damaged cars?+
Yes, including vehicles an insurer has not taken. If the insurer has an interest in the vehicle, we will need to confirm who has the right to sell it.
Do you buy utes, vans and trucks?+
Yes. We consider utes, vans, 4WDs, SUVs, trucks and light commercial vehicles as well as cars.
