selling car online australia

Selling a car online in Australia? Easy—if you treat it like a first date and a tax return at the same time.

Clean it properly, take 10–20 clear photos, and price it sensibly using recent ads as your compass (Tradingpost is a good start). Write a straight-shooting description: service history, rego status, kms, faults—yes, even that mystery rattle. Screen buyers, insist on licensed test drives, and only hand over keys after cleared funds; meet at a bank if you like your sleep untroubled. Draw up a simple receipt, keep copies of ID, and lodge the transfer promptly—check your state’s rules on rego and roadworthy so no fines come chasing you. Then cancel toll tags and insurance at the finish line, victory lap optional.
