Lincoln is a mix of three things: a university town, a growing commuter suburb and working farmland. All three produce cars that need moving on. Students leave at the end of the year with an old hatchback that will not survive another WOF. Families upgrade and keep the old car "for now". Farms end up with a ute or two parked behind the shed for years.
We buy all of them. DEOL pays cash for cars in Lincoln in any condition, with free pickup and payment when we collect.
Leaving Lincoln? Sell the car before you go
If you are finishing at Lincoln University or moving away, the car is often the last loose end. You do not have time to list it, answer messages and meet strangers. Send us the plate and a line about its condition, and we will give you a cash figure you can plan around. We can usually collect before your move date, and we take care of the NZTA paperwork so the car is not left in your name.
Cars we take around Lincoln
- Old student cars with expired WOF or rego
- Cars with engine, gearbox or electrical faults
- Accident-damaged and written-off vehicles
- Farm utes, vans and 4WDs, running or not
- Cars that have sat unused for years
The one thing that matters is that the car is complete. A whole vehicle carries the value, even if it does not start.
Pickup in Lincoln, Springston and Tai Tapu
Lincoln is only about 22 km from the city, so collection is often the same day. We also cover Springston, Tai Tapu, Ladbrooks, Greenpark and the back roads toward Lake Ellesmere. Paddocks, sheds and gravel driveways are all fine.
How it works
- Send your plate through the quote form.
- We look the car up and call or text you with a cash offer.
- Say yes and we book a pickup, then pay you on collection.
No sign-up, no bidding, no fees. If the car has been in a crash, our wrecked car page explains what we look at.
