Practical considerations specific to flood-damaged SUVs

• Electrical systems exposed to water often create progressive faults - disclose any known issues to improve accuracy of the offer.
• If the SUV is under finance, inform your lender; we can work with you to manage settlement and transfer in line with legal requirements.
• Avoid attempting DIY repairs that may complicate salvage assessment; document the vehicle’s current state with clear photos instead.

What to expect at collection and payment

Once you accept the offer we confirm the collection slot in Johannesburg, arrange free towing, and finalise the transfer paperwork. After the vehicle is collected and identity checks are complete, we release fast payment to the account you specify.
