Selling a car in Reservoir
How do I sell my car in Reservoir? Enter the rego and five licensed dealers who buy in Melbourne send written offers inside 60 minutes during business hours. You compare them and take the best one, or none of them.
Established streets, mostly with driveways, though some of the older blocks are narrow. Street inspection is completely normal. Close to the northern dealer network so appointments come quickly. Payment is by bank transfer, and most Reservoir sellers who accept an offer are paid within two to three business days. There is no listing fee and no cost to you at any point.
Reservoir is one of Melbourne's larger established suburbs and the car parc is old, deep and varied. Plenty of vehicles here have been with one owner for a decade or more, and plenty have been through three.
Older cars are where the offer spread gets widest, because one buyer sees a retail car and another sees wholesale metal. The gap between those two views is frequently four figures, and it only becomes visible when they bid at the same time.
What sells well in Reservoir
Older Commodores, Falcons, Camrys and Corollas are common, along with an increasing layer of small European cars. Higher kilometre vehicles sell fine, and cars needing work are still worth submitting rather than trading in.

Which cars sell best in Reservoir?
Older Commodores, Falcons, Camrys and Corollas are common, along with an increasing layer of small European cars. Higher kilometre vehicles sell fine, and cars needing work are still worth submitting rather than trading in. That said, every vehicle is priced on its own condition and history, so a car that is not on that list is still worth submitting.
Do I need a roadworthy certificate?
Selling to a licensed dealer generally puts compliance on their side, because they have to meet it before they can retail the car. Private sale requirements differ by state and change from time to time, so confirm the current position with the VIC road authority. Your notice of disposal obligation stays with you either way.
