If your vehicle won't start, has severe mechanical faults or is an accident write-off, selling it as a non-runner removes storage, repair and logistics headaches. Our service buys non-running cars in any condition, arranges free towing across South Africa and handles the admin so you don’t have to. This is ideal for owners in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and surrounding areas who need a straightforward way to convert an immobile vehicle into cash quickly.
We provide a simple online valuation, a competitive cash offer based on condition and market demand, free towing from your location, and handling of required paperwork (including deregistration steps). You keep control: review the offer and accept only if you’re satisfied. For more detail on selling a non-running vehicle, see the Sell Non-Running Car page for step-by-step guidance.
Offers reflect the vehicle’s make, model, year, mileage, visible damage, mechanical status and salvage market demand in South Africa. While each case is different, our pricing approach is transparent: we explain the main factors that influence the offer so you can make an informed decision without hidden fees.
