Trusted guides, tips, and insights for Australia's used car buyers and businesses.
· REGO & Legal
Buying a used car in Australia? You usually need to transfer the vehicle registration (“rego”) within 14 days. This guide breaks down the official transfer steps for NSW, VIC and QLD, including what documents you need, when inspections/certificates apply (Pink Slip / RWC / Safety Certificate), typical fees and stamp duty rules, plus practical AUCN tips to avoid common mistakes and scams.
· History & Risk
Odometer fraud hasn’t disappeared in Australia — it’s evolved. This guide explains the most common causes of odometer inconsistencies (including cluster swaps and interstate moves), the strongest real-world warning signs (sudden drops, low km for age, service gaps, mismatched wear), and practical checks buyers can do. It also outlines how an AUCN report can flag patterns that a standard PPSR/REVS certificate won’t show.
· History & Risk
Many Aussie buyers assume a REVS/PPSR check will reveal accident history — but in most cases it won’t. This article explains why only written-off vehicles typically appear on official registers, how cars can still have major crash, hail or flood repairs while passing PPSR, and what buyers should do instead: combine a PPSR/REVS check with full history insights, market price comparisons, and a pre-purchase inspection to uncover hidden damage.
· History & Risk
This guide explains Australia’s Written-Off Vehicle Register (WOVR) in plain English — what it is, how cars end up listed, and the key difference between Statutory Write-Offs (never re-registrable) and Repairable Write-Offs (can return to the road after inspection). It also breaks down common WOVR damage codes (collision, hail, water, fire, theft), what WOVR/PPSR doesn’t show, and AUCN’s buyer checklist for assessing risk, repair quality, and true market value before purchasing.
· Valuation
Used car pricing in Australia is heavily shaped by three signals: kilometres, overall condition, and service record completeness. This article explains how buyers interpret each factor (km relative to age, cosmetic vs mechanical condition, and service history gaps), why these signals change buyer confidence and negotiation power, and how AUCN valuation uses real market patterns to provide a more realistic value range.
· Market Insights
Some cars in Australia lose value far faster than others — often due to high running costs, complex repairs, oversupply after lease cycles, or shrinking buyer demand. This guide breaks down the 10 vehicle categories that typically depreciate the quickest (from large European luxury sedans to early-generation EVs and people movers) and gives practical steps buyers can use to avoid “cheap upfront, expensive long-term” purchases.
