A CLEAR NEXT STEP
Selling a car shouldn't take weeks.
Send us the year, make, model, condition and your suburb. We'll come back with an offer, and you decide whether to go ahead.
MELBOURNE · SELLING YOUR CAR
Start with the car you're selling.
You don't need a long list or a clean car. A few details are enough to get a price.
What to tell us
- Year, make, model and variant
- Kilometres, if you know them
- Whether it starts, runs and drives
- Any damage, faults or warning lights
- Whether you have the keys and registration papers
- Your pickup suburb
Photos help, especially if there's damage. Send what you have and we'll ask for anything else.
Tell us about your car02 · WHAT WE CONSIDER
Almost any car, in almost any condition.
We make offers on most makes and models, whether it's a hatchback you've outgrown, a second car nobody uses or an older car that's become more trouble than it's worth.
Utes, SUVs, 4WDs and vans are welcome too. Cars that have been in an accident, flooded or sat unused are considered, as are unregistered cars.
03 · CONDITION
Selling a car that isn't perfect.
Most cars people want to sell aren't perfect. There might be dents, a worn interior, a fault you've put up with or a repair you can't justify. None of that stops you getting an offer.
What helps is honesty. Tell us what's wrong, even if it won't show in photos, and we'll price the car you actually have.
04 · HOW A QUOTE IS REVIEWED
What your offer depends on.
Two cars of the same make and year can be worth very different amounts. Your offer depends on:
- The make, model, year and kilometres
- The condition of the body and interior
- Mechanical condition and any faults
- Damage, rust or repairs needed
- Whether the car is complete
- The market for that car, and for cars at the end of their life, the value of the parts and metal
Cleaning the car or doing small repairs rarely changes the number by much, so don't spend money before you ask. The quote is free, and there's no pressure to accept.
05 · COLLECTION
Pickup, when it suits you.
If you accept the offer, we agree a time that suits you. Free removal is included when we buy your car, so there's nothing to book or pay for.
Tell us where the car is and how to reach it. Same-day pickup is possible when our schedule and the car's location allow it, and a planned pickup on a later day is fine too.
06 · LOCAL SERVICE
Selling your car anywhere in Melbourne.
We buy cars across Melbourne. Put your suburb in the quote form and we'll confirm we can collect from you.
07 · YOUR OPTIONS
Sell privately, trade it in or sell direct.
There's no single right answer. It depends on the car and how much effort you want to put in.
- Private sale: can bring a higher price for a car in good condition, but you handle the listing, the messages, the inspections and the negotiating. Cars that are old, damaged or not running can be hard to sell this way.
- Trade-in: convenient if you're buying another car from the same dealer, but you usually get one offer, and a car in poor condition may not be taken.
- Sell direct to us: one call, one offer and one pickup. It suits cars that are old, unregistered, damaged or not worth the effort of a private sale.
Not sure which is right? Ask for a quote and compare it with your other options.
08 · PAYMENT
Paid by bank transfer.
Payment is made by bank transfer when the sale is completed. When we collect, we check the car and your photo ID, finish the paperwork and send the payment to your account. Have your bank details ready so the handover is quick.
09 · BEFORE YOU SELL
A short checklist.
A little preparation makes the handover quick:
- Have your photo ID ready
- Find something that shows you own the car, or that you can sell it for the owner
- Check whether there's finance on the car and get the payout figure from your lender
- Find the keys, and the registration papers and service records if you have them
- Empty the glovebox, boot and console, and take out your toll tag
- Check the current VicRoads requirements for notifying the sale of a vehicle
Any finance owing needs to be cleared before the sale can go ahead. If a car is missing a few parts we can still assess it. A bare shell with the engine and major components removed is the one thing we can't take.
10 · FAQS
Questions about selling your car.
Q1. How do I sell my car quickly?
Send us the details through the quote form or call 03 8580 9251. We come back with an offer, and if you accept we agree a pickup time. Same-day collection is possible when our schedule and the car's location allow it.
Q2. Do I need to fix or clean the car first?
No. Cleaning and small repairs rarely change the price much, so don't spend money before asking. Be upfront about faults and damage.
Q3. Will you buy a car that doesn't run?
Yes. A car that won't start can still be bought and collected. Tell us whether the wheels roll and the steering moves.
Q4. How is my car valued?
We look at the make, model, year, kilometres, condition, mechanical faults, damage and whether the car is complete. For cars at the end of their life, the parts and metal value counts too.
Q5. How do I get paid?
By bank transfer when the sale is completed, after we've checked the car and your photo ID and finished the paperwork.
Q6. Is there a fee to sell my car?
No. The quote is free, and free removal is included when we buy your car.
Q7. Can I sell a car that's on finance?
We can only buy a car once any finance owing has been cleared. Ask your lender for the payout figure. When it's cleared and you can show proof, call us and we'll continue.
Q8. Do I need a roadworthy certificate?
You don't need to arrange one before asking for a quote, and unregistered cars are considered. Ownership, or your authority to sell, still needs to be shown.
Q9. Can I sell a car for someone else?
Yes, if you're allowed to sell it. You'll need your own photo ID and something that shows the car belongs to them and that you can sell it for them.
Q10. Do I have to accept the offer?
No. Ask questions, compare other options and decide in your own time.
