| Damage type | Typical impact on offer |
|---|---|
| Structural/Frame damage | Significantly reduces retail value; higher salvage demand for parts |
| Mechanical failure (non-running) | Moderate to large impact depending on engine/transmission condition |
| Flood or water damage | Offers often reflect corrosion and electrical risk; documentation matters |
| Minor cosmetic damage | Smaller impact; higher offers if mechanicals are sound |
We base offers on make/model/year, mileage, photos and the salvage market demand. To start, upload vehicle details and receive a fast, obligation-free quote. For more on what we buy and the process, see our Sell Damaged Cars page and our How it works overview.
If you operate a small fleet in Gauteng, we can handle multiple vehicles - submit each vehicle online and we'll coordinate collections. Learn more about selling non-running vehicles on our Sell Non-Running Car page.
Same-day payment is achievable when three conditions are met: you accept the offer, your identity and ownership documents are verified, and collection or handover occurs during banking hours. Where full verification is completed and collection happens before the bank cutoff, funds can be transferred the same day. If any verification requires additional checks (for example, vehicles under finance), payment will follow promptly once clearance is confirmed.
