UNREGISTERED & NO ROADWORTHY
Sell an Unregistered Car in Sydney: No Rego, No RWC, No Problem
Rego lapsed, plates off, sitting under a cover for a year. You can't legally drive it to a buyer, so we bring the buyer to it. Free tow, full paperwork, and the car out of your name the day it leaves.

THE HONEST POSITION
Rego expired? The car didn't stop being worth money.
Rego expired months ago? Can't pass a roadworthy and can't afford the repairs to get one? In NSW you can't legally drive an unregistered car to a buyer, which is exactly why our pickup is free and our tow truck does the travelling. No rego, no RWC, no problem. We buy the car as it sits and handle the disposal paperwork so it's officially out of your name.
The longer an unregistered car sits, the less sellable it feels, but the maths barely changes for us. Whether the rego lapsed last month or three years back, the car still has the same metal, the same parts and the same repair value in our workshop. Flat tyres, seized brakes, a spider web on the mirror: we've collected worse.
Paperwork worries are usually the real blocker, and they're handled in minutes at pickup: we lodge the Notice of Disposal with you, tell you if you're owed a rego refund, and leave a written record of the sale in your hand. Request a quote for your unregistered car. It takes minutes, and there's no obligation.
No rego, no RWC, no problem. We buy the car as it sits.
NSW RULES · KNOW WHERE YOU STAND
- Selling with plates on? The seller lodges a Notice of Disposal with Service NSW. We handle it with you at pickup.
- Selling without plates, or rego cancelled? Plates go back to a service centre and no Notice of Disposal is needed. We'll tell you which applies.
- Leftover rego? You may be owed a refund when you cancel. Ask us how at pickup.
- No rego papers? Call first. We accept alternative proof of ownership and we'll tell you exactly what works.
WHY WE PAY MORE
No rego and no roadworthy don't scare a workshop. They scare traders. We buy the car as it sits, repair what's worth repairing in-house, and that difference is your payout.
As it sits
No rego, no roadworthy, no plates. Bought exactly where it sits.
Paperwork done properly

Unregistered-car questions, straight answers
Yes. Expired rego doesn't stop a sale at all. You can't legally drive the car to a buyer, which is why our pickup is free: the tow truck does the travelling. We handle the notice of disposal at pickup so it's officially out of your name, and any leftover rego refund is yours to claim.
