A car does not have to be broken for us to buy it. If yours still runs and drives but you have upgraded, it has high kilometres, or it has simply become one car too many, DEOL Car Solutions will buy it as it is. We collect it for free from anywhere in Christchurch and Canterbury and pay you on collection.
You can sell a running car without the hassle
Most of the cars we buy still go. The owner has bought something newer, the car has done a lot of kilometres, or it needs a WOF or a repair that is not worth paying for on a car you are moving on. When you sell a running car to us there is no advertising, no strangers coming to test drive it, and no waiting for the right buyer to turn up.
Running cars we buy every week
- The old car left over after buying a new one or a hybrid
- High-kilometre cars, including ones past 200,000 km and 300,000 km
- Cars that run fine but have an expired WOF
- Cars with a small fault: a warning light, a worn seatbelt, a tired suspension part
- Second cars that sit unused most of the week
- Cars you need gone quickly before a move or a trip overseas
A running car is worth more than one that does not go, so tell us it runs and drives when you ask for an offer. Kilometres, age and wear are all priced in.
How it works
- Send the plate and a line about the car through the quote form.
- We call or text you with a cash offer.
- You choose a pickup time that suits you. In Christchurch that is often the same day or the next day.
- Our driver collects the car, pays you on collection, and we complete the NZTA change of ownership.
Why sell to us instead of listing it
We are the end buyer. There is no listing fee, no success fee and no commission, and nothing is deducted for the pickup. If you already have an offer for the car, tell us the number to beat and we will see what we can do.
Questions about selling a running car
Do you only buy damaged or dead cars? No. We buy plenty of cars that run and drive well. Running, damaged or dead, the process is the same.
My car has very high kilometres. Is it still worth selling? Yes. High kilometres lower the value but do not stop us buying, especially when the car still runs.
The WOF has expired but it still drives. Can I drive it to you? You do not need to. We collect it, so it never has to go on the road without a current WOF. See how we buy cars with no WOF.
How soon will I be paid? On collection, when our driver picks the car up.
