How to sell my car

If you would like to see how the process works, this short video walks through the main options and explains how AutoFlip helps sellers choose the easiest way to sell their car.

To sell your car, start by checking its current market value, gathering key details like kilometres, service history and registration, then deciding how you want to manage enquiries, inspections, paperwork and payment.

A private sale may suit some sellers, but it can take time to compare offers, meet buyers and handle each step yourself. AutoFlip gives you another option by helping you sell your car online through a simple enquiry, buyer competition and support from experienced appraisers.

Sell Privately or Sell My Car Online: Which One is Better?

Selling privately can look like the best way to get more for your car, especially when you see similar models listed online for strong prices. The challenge is that listing price and final sale price are not always the same thing.

You may need to take photos, write the ad, respond to messages, filter out low offers, arrange inspections, manage test drives and handle paperwork. Some buyers are serious. Others disappear faster than a parking spot at the shops on a Saturday morning.

For many sellers, the real question is not only, "How much can I get?" It is also how much time, admin and uncertainty they want to take on before the car is sold.

Need to sell your car fast?

AutoFlip is built for speed. Sellers can receive a same-day offer from our network of licensed buyers. From there, things move quickly. A fast inspection means there's no lengthy back-and-forth, and with everything confirmed, you can get quick payment straight into your account. We also arrange fast collection to avoid waiting to move on with your day.

What do I need when selling a car online?

Selling your car online is easier when you know what information to prepare ahead of time. Having these details ready helps buyers understand your car quickly and supports a smoother selling process.

Start with the basics buyers expect to see when reviewing a listing.

These details give buyers an immediate snapshot of your vehicle and help them decide if it suits their needs.

Photos play a big role in attracting interest and setting expectations.

Clear, well-lit images help buyers assess condition without needing in-person inspections. If you are unsure how to take photos, AutoFlip’s guided camera can help you capture the right angles.

Being open about your car’s condition helps build trust and supports fair pricing.

You can also include optional details such as registration status and tyre condition to give buyers extra confidence.

A short description helps add context beyond the technical details.

This is a good place to mention driving comfort, fuel efficiency or features that make your car practical for everyday use. Clear descriptions help buyers submit more confident offers.

Preparing this information in advance makes it easier to list your car and move through the selling process with clarity.
