Selling to us
- Free quote, with no obligation to sell
- Paid in cash when we collect your car
- Free collection from most of South East Queensland (we confirm it for your location)
After a collision the question is often whether the car is worth repairing at all. If the answer is no, or you'd rather move on, you can ask us for a quote on the car in its damaged state.
How the accident happened, whether airbags went off and whether the car is still safe to drive all affect what we can offer, so include as much as you know.
Sound familiar?
The repair bill is close to the car's value
When the cost of fixing a car approaches what it's worth, many owners look at selling it as-is.
You're waiting on your insurer
If your claim is still open or you've been offered a settlement, tell us where things stand so we understand the situation.
Airbags went off
Airbag deployment usually means significant repair cost. Let us know so the quote reflects it.
The frame or structure is affected
Structural damage is the hardest to repair economically. Photos underneath and around the damaged area help.

- When the accident happened and roughly how

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to repair my car before getting a quote?
No. Tell us what's wrong with it and we'll assess it as it is. There's no need to spend money on repairs first.
What information do you need for a quote?
The make, model, year, where the car is, and what condition it's in. Photos help us give you a more accurate figure but are optional.
Is there any obligation once I ask for a quote?
Asking for a quote doesn't commit you to selling. You decide whether the offer suits you.
Can I sell a car that's been in an accident?
Often yes. The outcome depends on the vehicle and its status. Tell us what happened and we'll advise what we can and can't purchase.
What if my insurer has written the car off?
Tell us, and say whether you know the write-off type. Some written-off vehicles can be purchased, subject to Queensland requirements. See our written-off vehicles page for general information.
