Common questions
How do I get a quote for my car?
Enter your car's make, model, year, mileage and condition into the calculator above and you'll get an instant quote in seconds — no sign-up and no phone call required. If you want a firm number, leave your details and we'll call you the same day with a confirmed offer.
Can I get an instant quote for my car online?
Yes — the calculator on this page gives you an instant online quote based on real market data for your make, model and year, adjusted for mileage and condition. It's a genuine ballpark, not a lowball opening offer, and it takes under a minute.
How much is my car worth in NZ?
It depends on the make, model, year, mileage and condition — plus what similar cars are actually selling for right now, not just their original price. Use the calculator above for an instant indicative range, or read our full guide to how much your car is worth in NZ for a deeper breakdown of how dealers and private buyers actually price a car.
Do you buy any car?
We buy most makes and models, including cars that need work — our baseline pricing above covers everything from daily Corollas to European performance cars. If your car is a genuine write-off or has major unresolved issues, we'll tell you honestly on the call rather than wasting your time.
Is the online estimate legally binding?
No — it's an indicative range based on typical market pricing for your make, model, year and condition, not a firm offer. We confirm a real number after a quick look at the car, and that's the figure you're actually paid if you decide to sell.
What happens after I submit my details?
We call you the same day to confirm the details and give you a firm offer. There's no pressure to accept — if the number works for you, we can complete the sale and pay on the spot; if not, you're free to walk away. If you're selling to upgrade, our guide to buying a car in NZ covers what to check before you buy the next one.
Can I sell a car that still has finance owing on it?
Yes. Tell us the payout figure from your lender when we call and we settle it directly as part of the sale — you get the difference (if any) rather than having to clear the loan yourself first. Our car finance guide covers how payout figures work if you're not sure what yours is.
Do you buy cars that don't run or have mechanical issues?
Often, yes — just note it in the "notes" field when you get your quote so the number already accounts for it. Non-running or high-repair-cost cars usually land at the lower end of the range rather than being turned away outright.
What documents do I need to sell my car in NZ?
Your vehicle's registration papers, photo ID, and if it's financed, your payout figure from the lender. If there are two registered owners, both need to be present or provide written authorisation to sell.
How long is my quote valid for?
Your online estimate is locked for 7 days or 300km of extra driving, whichever comes first — if your circumstances haven't changed, the number holds when we call.
Can I trade in my car instead of selling for cash?
Yes — tell us on the call and we'll apply your car's value as credit toward anything in our collection instead of paying out cash.
Do you buy modified or performance cars?
Yes — it's a lot of what we deal in. Mention any modifications (turbo, suspension, exhaust, wrap, etc.) in the notes field; well-documented, well-installed mods can add value rather than subtract it, especially on the platforms we specialise in.
What if my car's actual condition doesn't match what I entered?
No issue — the online number is always indicative. We confirm the real figure after a quick look at the car, and you're never obligated to accept a revised offer if the in-person number comes in different from the estimate.
How do I get paid when I sell my car?
Bank transfer on the day, once we've agreed a final number and you've signed the sale paperwork. No waiting on a private-sale buyer's finance to come through.
Do you charge any fees to sell my car?
No — no admin fees, no listing fees, nothing deducted from your quote. The number we agree on is the number you're paid.
