Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Car
What do I need to sell my car for cash?
If you are the legal owner of the car, you can sell it with no worries! All you need is the vehicle logbook (also known as the Natis document), you need to be the registered owner, a copy of your ID, proof of residence & a settlement letter — if your car is still under finance.
We’ll take care of the rest, filling out the transfer of ownership documents etc. But please ensure your car license fees are also up to date!

What price will I get offered for my car?
There are literally tens and tens of factors that influence the price a dealer or private buyer will pay for your car. Chief amongst them is the current Transunion trade & retail price on your exact year model, make & derivative. Then comes mileage and condition. A general rule of thumb is 30,000 kms per year of mileage. If you’re averaging more than that – your offer may be adjusted accordingly.
But don’t stress! Unless your car is a real shocker, we will offer you our best price up front. We buy 100’s of cars, and our secret lies in paying our customer a fair price so that we get the best cars on the market for our dealer network!

What paperwork do I need to sell my car to Ibuycarz?
You need to be the registered owner of the car. (In some cases we may request a copy of your original invoice, to avoid fraud). Then a copy of your ID document, proof of residence, bank settlement letter if your car is not fully paid out.
If you have the service manual with full service history and spare keys — this will make your final offer even more attractive!

How soon will I be paid out once I accept your offer?
After we shake hands on a price, you will receive payment the same day! If you’re on a different bank to us – we’ll email you the proof of payment. All this will be done before handing over the keys to us – so you’ll have total peace of mind.
If you need a little time to secure alternate wheels, we can adjust concluding the transaction around your schedule too.
