Backed by experience
Sister to SEQ Car Brokers
Built on the same local car know-how.
What we buy
Cars, utes, SUVs, vans, 4x4s, and daily drivers.
We look at the make, model, kilometres, condition, history, finance owing, and what the market wants right now. Then we give you a number you can act on. No trade-in games, no lowball after an inspection.
We buy
Any condition, any age
Late-model and tidy, or high-kilometre, unregistered, or sitting with a dead battery in the driveway. Hail dents, a blown head gasket, written-off and rebuildable, or simply not worth fixing. We still want to see it.
Straight answers, no pressure
We explain how we reached the price and what happens next. Take it, think it over, or walk. Your call, every time.
How it works
Four steps from details to decision.
Tell us the car
Rego or VIN, kilometres, condition, photos, location and your timing.
We check demand
We compare your car against SEQ buyer demand and the resale path it fits.
Review the offer
You see the number, and we explain what moved it up or down.
Pickup and payment
We confirm payment and pickup with you before any transfer happens.
Your options
Choose the path that matches your timing.
Both routes are valid. The right one comes down to how much time you have and how much certainty you want before the car leaves your driveway.

Where we buy
Rooted in South East Queensland. Reaching up the coast to Mackay.
We are an SEQ buyer first — Brisbane, the Gold and Sunshine Coasts, Ipswich, Logan and Toowoomba are home turf. When the car is worth the trip we head further north, up the coast as far as Rockhampton and Mackay. Either way the offer comes from someone who works your patch, not a national call centre.

Questions
Before you request an offer.
A few things owners ask most. If your situation is not covered here, send it through and we will give you a straight answer.
Do you buy cars with finance owing?
Yes. The payout just needs to be handled clearly, so tell us the lender and an estimated payout figure. We sort the balance as part of the sale and you keep anything left over.
Do I need a roadworthy certificate?
It depends on the sale path and the vehicle. Send us the rego and an honest description of the condition first, and we will tell you whether a roadworthy is needed before anything is locked in.
Can you buy damaged cars?
Often, yes. A few clear photos and honest notes on the damage let us assess it quickly and give you a realistic figure rather than a number we walk back later.
How fast can I get paid?
It depends on the inspection, your finance status and pickup timing. Once those line up we aim to keep the next step same-day where possible, so you are not left waiting on us.
Is it free, or are there any fees?
It is free and there is no obligation. Getting an offer costs nothing, pickup across our coverage area is free, and there are no fees skimmed off the price — the figure we agree on is the figure you get.
How and when do you pay me?
By bank transfer or cash on collection, whichever suits you. Once you accept the offer we arrange free pickup and pay you on the spot when we collect the car, at a time that works for you.
Which areas do you cover?
All six South East Queensland metros — Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Logan and Toowoomba — plus extended reach up the coast to Hervey Bay, Bundaberg, Gladstone, Rockhampton and Mackay. Not sure if you are in range? Ask and we will tell you straight.
Do you buy unregistered or non-running cars?
Often, yes. Unregistered, mechanically faulty and non-running cars are all worth asking about. Send a few honest photos and notes and we will let you know whether we can buy it and what it is worth.

The offer is free and you are never locked in. We handle the enquiries and paperwork that a private sale would leave on you.
