1. Purpose of Use
1.1. Our platform is intended for users to utilise our mobile car buying service.
1.2. Users must use the platform in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
2. Valuation Process
2.1. Offers provided may not reflect the retail value of the car.
2.2. Users should understand that the offer may be less than what they might expect to see on second-hand marketplaces.
2.3. The offer includes a margin to account for the retail value.
2.4. Car Buy does not provide customers with a separate “vehicle valuation” service. Users seeking a comprehensive market value assessment should explore dedicated vehicle valuation services.
2.5. The “maximum offer” provided is contingent on the accuracy and truthfulness of the information submitted. During the final inspection, if the information provided matches the actual condition of the vehicle, no additional deductions will be made from the offer.
2.6. Car Buy reserves the right to adjust the offer if, during the final inspection, it is determined that additional expenses will be incurred to make the vehicle market-ready. This may include costs for services, new tyres, body parts replacement, or addressing any damage or maintenance issues that may affect the value of the vehicle.
2.7. Car Buy retains the right to adjust the “maximum offer” at any point during the process, based on factors such as market conditions, unforeseen expenses, or other relevant considerations.
2.8. Car Buy reserves the right to decline purchasing certain vehicles. In such cases, we will notify the vehicle owner via email that we are not interested in purchasing their vehicle.
2.9. CarBuy reserves the right to reject any vehicle at any stage of the process—before, during, or after inspection—if it does not meet our buying criteria. This may include (but is not limited to) issues related to mechanical condition, service history, ownership details, or market suitability. In some cases, a vehicle may be declined without a formal offer being made. If we choose not to proceed, we will notify you either in person or via email. You can view our full Buying Criteria here
