We buy cars all over the Mornington Peninsula

From Mount Eliza and Mornington on the bay side to Flinders and Cape Schanck on the ocean, we buy cars across the whole Peninsula. We are a licensed motor dealer (NSW MD 077404, Autohaus Australia Pty Ltd) buying cars Australia-wide, and the business is run by a valuer who has priced cars since 1992.

Call 1800 73 55 73 or fill in the form for a genuine offer by phone, not an online estimate. Accept it and we pay a deposit, often the same day. We inspect the car at a time and place that suits you, from a driveway in Mount Martha to a beach house in Blairgowrie. The balance goes into your bank account, and the car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared. See how it works.

The cars we buy on the Peninsula

Utes and 4WDs tow boats to the ramps and caravans to the foreshore campgrounds. We can buy your Toyota HiLux or Ford Ranger. Around Mount Eliza, Mount Martha and Sorrento there are plenty of European and prestige cars, and we buy those too, from the Mercedes-Benz GLC to the Audi Q5.

Families in Somerville, Hastings and Rosebud drive SUVs and people movers. See what we look for in SUVs. Salt air, sand and stone chips come with coastal life, so tell us about them on the call and we will make an offer on the car you actually have.

We are buying cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs from 2021 or newer with 100,000 km or less. Older or higher kilometres? Send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away if we can help.

Selling a car on the Peninsula without the hassle

A private sale here can be slow outside the summer crowds. You list it, answer scam messages and meet strangers for test drives. A trade-in means negotiating with the dealer selling you the next car. Sell your car to us instead: the valuation is free, there is no obligation and no fees come out of the offer.

Car sitting idle at the holiday house? Read about how to sell a car you don’t use. Still paying it off? We deal with your lender directly and pay you any equity, as explained in selling a car under finance. We also buy cars in Frankston and, across the bay, in Geelong.

Paperwork in Victoria

In Victoria you let VicRoads know within 14 days of the sale, most easily through the notice of disposal in myVicRoads. VicRoads emails to confirm the car is out of your name. Keep a copy of the transfer form. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork, help with the transfer and make sure your notice to VicRoads is done correctly.

On a private sale of a registered car, the seller has to give the buyer a roadworthy certificate (RWC) less than 30 days old. VicRoads’ transfer rules do not require one when a private owner sells to a dealer. We hold a NSW dealer licence, so we confirm what applies to your car on the call. Read our guides to selling a car in Victoria and 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 Victoria

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
VicRoads
Transfer of ownership
In Victoria you let VicRoads know within 14 days of the sale, most easily by completing the notice of disposal in myVicRoads, and VicRoads emails to confirm the car is out of your name. Keep a copy of the transfer form. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork, help with the transfer and make sure your notice to VicRoads is done correctly.
Roadworthy certificate
Usually not when you sell to us. On a private sale of a registered car in Victoria, the seller has to give the buyer a roadworthy certificate (RWC) less than 30 days old. VicRoads' transfer rules do not require one when a private owner sells to a dealer. We hold a NSW dealer licence, so we confirm what applies to your Victorian car on the call.
Good to know
In Victoria the new owner pays the transfer fee and any motor vehicle duty, so neither comes out of your sale, and we take no fees out of our offer. Cancel any rego direct debit before the sale. If you want to keep custom plates, remove them and transfer or store them before the sale, otherwise the buyer is presumed to take the plate rights with the car.

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 Mornington Peninsula: your questions

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

1800 73 55 73
Do you buy cars in Rosebud, Rye and Sorrento?

Yes. We buy cars all over the Peninsula, including Mornington, Mount Martha, Dromana, Rosebud, Rye, Sorrento, Hastings, Somerville and Red Hill. Call 1800 73 55 73 or fill in the form and you get a genuine offer by phone, not an online estimate.

How does collection work from the Mornington Peninsula?

Once you accept our offer, we inspect the car at a time and place that suits you, anywhere from Mount Eliza to Portsea. The balance is paid into your bank account, and we arrange collection only after you confirm the funds have cleared. You do not have to drive up Peninsula Link to a dealer.

How do I tell VicRoads I have sold my car?

In Victoria you let VicRoads know within 14 days of the sale. The easiest way is the notice of disposal in myVicRoads, and VicRoads emails to confirm the car is out of your name. Keep a copy of the transfer form. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork, help with the transfer and make sure your notice to VicRoads is done correctly.

Can I sell a car that sits at our holiday house?

Yes. Plenty of Peninsula cars spend most of the year in the garage of a holiday house in Rye, Blairgowrie or Sorrento. We can buy your car wherever it is parked. The inspection happens at a time and place that suits you, and the car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared. Tell us on the call about any salt, sand or marks from life near the beach.

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 Mornington Peninsula

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