Here are some tips for maximising your car's value
These tips will help you maximise the price you can sell your car, regardless of whether you end up selling to a dealer, private car buyer or trading it in for a new car:
• Documented service history:
Provide a comprehensive service history that demonstrates regular maintenance and care. Dealers value cars with a well-documented maintenance record.
• Professional inspection:
Consider getting a pre-sale inspection from a reputable mechanic. This can identify and address any potential issues, giving dealers confidence in the car's condition.
• Clean and detail:
Present the car in its best condition by thoroughly cleaning and detailing both the interior and exterior. A well-maintained appearance suggests a well-cared-for vehicle.
• Mileage consideration:
While you can't change the mileage, be transparent about it. If the mileage is below average for its age, highlight this as a positive aspect. Note that your car must be under 12 years of age and have less than 180,000km.
• Highlight desirable features:
Clearly communicate any premium features or upgrades your car has. Dealers might be willing to pay more for cars with desirable specifications.
• Market research:
Research the market value of your car using tools like Redbook. Having an understanding of your car's worth puts you in a better negotiating position. Click here to view our free car value calculator.
• Complete documentation:
Ensure you have all necessary paperwork, including the owner's manual, title, and any warranties. This streamlines the selling process and enhances the perceived value.
• Fix Minor issues:
If there are minor issues that you can address without significant cost, consider fixing them. This can eliminate potential bargaining points for the dealer.
• Flexible negotiation:
Be open to negotiation. Dealers often expect some level of negotiation, and flexibility on your part can contribute to a mutually beneficial deal.
• Transparent Communication:
Provide transparent and accurate information about your car. This builds trust and can lead to a smoother transaction.
