Step 1
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Every registered vehicle we consign is inspected before it goes to market (race cars excluded) — organised entirely by us, at our partner workshop Spargs Auto Tune, or via a mobile inspection. You don't lift a finger.
Step 2
Detailing & Photography
A professional detail and a full photo set — video too on Premium and Signature — so your car shows at its best from the first impression. Social media marketing is included with Premium and Signature.
Step 3
Nationwide Listing & Marketing
Listed across TradeMe, Facebook Marketplace, Instagram, AutoTrader and more, reaching buyers across the country — we deliver nationwide, not just around Auckland. Premium and Signature packages are marketed globally too, with all logistics handled by us.
Step 4
Viewings & Finance
We manage all viewings, test drives, negotiations, finance, mechanical warranties, servicing, WOF, and more — so you don't have to deal with any of it directly.
Step 5
Negotiation & Settlement
Change of ownership and hand-over completed, with payment made to our sellers within 12 hours.

What You Could Walk Away With
A worked example on the Essential package, in the 7% commission bracket — real numbers vary by vehicle and package.
On the North Shore or close to Riverhead and keeping the car with you while it's listed? No storage fee applies, so you'd keep $32,356.35.
Two Costs We Never Mark Up
Pre-Purchase Inspection
$190+GST at cost
Required for every registered vehicle we consign (race cars excluded) — organised entirely by us, at our partner workshop, Spargs Auto Tune, or via a mobile inspection. The inspector charges $190+GST and you cover that upfront; for vehicles that sell for over $30k, we refund it once your sale completes. We add no margin either way — it protects the buyer, and it protects you.
TradeMe Listing Fee
$79–$500 at cost
A basic TradeMe listing is included with Premium and Signature, with discounted upgrades to a Standard or Premium listing. On Essential it's optional and scales with your vehicle's value. Not every car needs it — give us a call and we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth it for yours.
Commission (charged on completed sale)
Rates shown are indicative, and actual commission can vary from car to car. Every vehicle over $80k is priced individually, between 3% and 5%: on a $100,000 sale that's $3,000-$5,000.
Storage
$20/week per vehicle while it's stored with us.
On the North Shore or close to Riverhead? You're welcome to keep driving your car, or keep it stored at your place, while it's listed. No storage fee applies.

Private Sale vs Trade-In vs MV Consignment
See exactly how consignment stacks up against selling privately or trading in with a dealer.
Swipe to compare all three
| Private Sale | Trade-In | MV Consignment | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Effort Required | You handle listing, photos, and every enquiry yourself | None — the dealer takes it off your hands |
|
| Buyer Communication | You field every call, text, and time-waster directly | None — you're dealing with the dealer, not the end buyer |
|
| Viewings & Test Drives | You host strangers at your home and hand over your own keys | None required |
|
| Negotiation | One-on-one, often with the odds stacked in the buyer's favour | Fixed offer — little to no room to negotiate |
|
| Risk | Exposure to scams and time-wasters, with no safety net | Low risk, but no way to know if you left money on the table |
|
| Presentation & Marketing | Your own photos, on your own listing | Not marketed — the car isn't presented to anyone |
|
| Financial Return | You keep the full price — if it sells at a fair one | Typically well below market value |
|
| Timeline | Unpredictable — could take weeks or months | Immediate |
|
General comparison based on our own experience of consignment sales. Timeframes describe past sales and are not a guarantee — how quickly any vehicle sells depends on its price, condition and demand. We don't guarantee a sale or a particular sale price.
