We buy cars all over Burnie

Burnie is a working port city, and the towns around it are spread along the coast and up into the hills. If you want to trade in at a big dealership, that can mean a drive to Devonport, about 50 km east, or Launceston, about 150 km away. You do not need to go anywhere. We buy cars in Burnie, from South Burnie, Wivenhoe and Cooee to Upper Burnie, Shorewell Park and Park Grove. We can buy your car in Somerset, Wynyard, Penguin and Heybridge, and out along the coast to Stanley and Smithton.

We are a licensed motor dealer (MD 077404) buying cars Australia-wide, run by a valuer who has priced cars since 1992. You get a genuine offer by phone, not an online estimate. Start with a free valuation, or read how it works first.

The cars we buy in Burnie

The North West Coast is ute country. Dairy and vegetable farms around Ridgley, Yolla and Hampshire need a tough dual-cab, and so do the mine and forestry runs inland. We buy late-model Toyota HiLux and Isuzu D-MAX utes, and any other work ute in good condition. Families here drive SUVs like the Mazda CX-5 and Kia Sportage, and we buy those too.

We are buying cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs from 2021 or newer with 100,000 km or less. Older, or more kilometres? Send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away if we can help. Got a second car sitting in the shed? Read about how to sell a car you do not use.

Selling a car in Burnie without the hassle

The coast road links a string of small towns, and each one has a small pool of private buyers. A listing can sit for weeks. Then come the lowball offers, the test drives and the payment you have to check yourself. When you sell your car to us, you skip that.

After you accept our offer, a deposit is often paid the same day. We inspect the car at a time and place that suits you, and the balance goes into your bank account. The car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared. Still owe money on it? We deal with your lender directly and pay you any equity. See selling a car under finance.

We also buy cars in Devonport and Launceston.

Paperwork in Tasmania

The seller must lodge a disposal with the Registrar of Motor Vehicles within 7 days of the sale. That can be online through the disposal portal, on the MR116 form at Service Tasmania, by post or by email. There is no automatic confirmation, so check with Service Tasmania about a week later that the car is out of your name. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork and make sure your disposal is done correctly.

You usually do not need a roadworthy to sell to a licensed dealer. The exception is a car unregistered for three months or more, which must be inspected before it can be registered to the new owner. We confirm what applies on the call. Read our guide to selling a car in Tasmania, or selling a car in Australia.

What we are buying right now

Cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs of any make, 2021 or newer, with 100,000 km or less. Finance owing is fine. Older or higher-km car? Send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away if we can help.

Selling a car in Tasmania

The practical side, so nothing catches you out. Rules change from time to time, so we confirm what applies to your car on the call.

Registration authority
Transport Tasmania (the Registrar of Motor Vehicles), with transactions through Service Tasmania
Transfer of ownership
In Tasmania, the seller must lodge a disposal with the Registrar of Motor Vehicles within 7 days of the sale: online through the disposal portal, on the MR116 form at Service Tasmania, by post or by email. There is no automatic confirmation, so check with Service Tasmania about a week later that the car is out of your name. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork and make sure your disposal is done correctly.
Roadworthy certificate
Usually not needed. Transport Tasmania lists no inspection for transferring a currently registered car, and you usually do not need a roadworthy to sell to a licensed dealer. The exception is a car that has been unregistered for three months or more, which must be inspected before it can be registered to the new owner, so we confirm what applies to your car on the call.
Good to know
Motor vehicle duty and the transfer fee are the buyer's costs in Tasmania, so you pay neither when you sell to us. The buyer has 14 days to transfer the registration into their name, but that never extends your own 7 days to lodge the disposal.

What to have ready

  • Photo ID
  • Registration papers
  • Service logbook and receipts for any recent work
  • Loan details, if the car is under finance
  • Bank account details for your payment

We prepare the sale paperwork and help with the transfer of ownership, so you do not have to chase forms.

Selling your car in Burnie: your questions

Straight answers. If yours is not here, call us and ask.

1800 73 55 73
Do you buy cars in Wynyard, Somerset and Upper Burnie?

Yes. We buy cars all over Burnie, from Upper Burnie, Shorewell Park and Hillcrest to Cooee, Havenview and Romaine. We also buy cars in Somerset, Wynyard, Penguin, Ridgley and out to Smithton and Stanley. Tell us where the car is, and after you accept our offer the inspection happens at a time and place that suits you.

How does collection work from Burnie?

You never have to drive the car to a dealer in Launceston or Hobart. We make a genuine offer by phone. Once you accept, we pay a deposit, often the same day, and inspect the car at a time and place that suits you. The balance goes into your bank account, and we arrange collection only after you confirm the funds have cleared.

Do I need a roadworthy to sell my car in Tasmania?

Usually not. Transport Tasmania lists no inspection for transferring a currently registered car, and you usually do not need a roadworthy to sell to a licensed dealer. The exception is a car that has been unregistered for three months or more, which must be inspected before it can be registered to the new owner. We confirm what applies to your car on the call.

Do you buy work utes from the farms and the West Coast mines?

Yes. We buy work utes and 4WDs from 2021 or newer with 100,000 km or less, whether they run between dairy farms around Ridgley and Yolla or out to the mines at Rosebery. Tell us about any beacons, UHF radio, canopy or tray, and anything that has come off. If the kilometres are past our limit, send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away if we can help.

What cars are you buying right now?

We are buying cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs built in 2021 or later with 100,000 km or less. Any make is welcome, and we have strong demand for European and prestige models, dual-cab utes and family SUVs. If your car sits just outside that, send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away whether we can help.

When do I get paid?

Once we agree on a price, we can often pay a deposit the same day. After an inspection, the balance is paid into your bank account by bank transfer. The car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared, so you are never left without the car and without the money.

Can I sell my car if I still owe money on it?

Yes. We deal with your lender directly to pay out the loan, then pay you any equity left over. Cars under finance usually take 2 to 3 business days to settle. If you owe more than the car is worth, the difference has to be covered before settlement, and we show you the numbers before you decide.

We can buy your car in Burnie

Free and no obligation. If your car is 2021 or newer, with 100,000 km or less, we want to hear about it.
