CASH FOR CARS WOLLONGONG & ILLAWARRA
Cash for Cars Wollongong: Repair-First Buyers, Real Prices
We buy cars across Wollongong and the Illawarra in any condition: running, damaged, unregistered or written-off. Quotes run from $100 for end-of-life cars to $20,000 or more for repairable late-models. Our workshop is in Kemps Creek, about 75 minutes from the Wollongong CBD, pickup is free, and you're paid by bank transfer with a receipt.
Most Wollongong buyers price your car as scrap. Our workshop prices it as a repair job, and the difference shows up in your quote.
Free quote. No obligation. The agreed offer stands at pickup*
*If the vehicle matches the information provided, the agreed offer is intended to remain unchanged at pickup.
REAL NUMBERS, NOT "UP TO" GAMES
What we pay for good cars in Wollongong right now
Nobody else publishing in the Illawarra shows you real buy prices. Here are ours, calculated by the same pricing engine as our estimator. Running and registered cars sit at the top; damaged and written-off examples of the same car still bring real money, because our workshop does the repair at trade cost.
| Model | Running & registered | Damaged / write-off | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mazda 3 | $3,700 – $5,850 | $900 – $1,450 | Mazda 3 specifics |
| CX-5 | $4,850 – $7,650 | $1,200 – $1,900 | CX-5 specifics |
| i30 | $3,200 – $5,050 | $800 – $1,250 | i30 specifics |
| Tucson | $4,300 – $6,750 | $1,050 – $1,650 | Tucson specifics |
| Cerato | $3,300 – $5,200 | $800 – $1,300 | Cerato specifics |
| Sportage | $4,100 – $6,500 | $1,000 – $1,600 | Sportage specifics |
Typical 2015-2018 examples at 100,000-200,000 km, calculated by the same engine as our online estimator. Newer, older, lower-km or different-condition cars price differently, and every car gets its own firm number before we book a truck.

WE REPAIR WHAT OTHERS SCRAP
Why Wollongong sellers get more with us
The reason we assess damaged and written-off cars properly is sitting in our Kemps Creek workshop: hoists, panel gear, and mechanics who bring cars back for a living. What a yard calls scrap, we assess as a repair job, and the difference shows up in your quote.
Yes, we drive up to 95 minutes to reach you. The tow is our cost, not yours, and it never comes out of your quote. Same or next day pickup is the standard across the Illawarra, and payment is bank transfer at your door, with a receipt.
Your Wollongong quote is one call away.
Free quote, free pickup anywhere in the Illawarra, payment by bank transfer on the spot. No obligation. If our number doesn't work for you, you've lost five minutes and nothing else.
Open 8:00–18:00, Monday–Saturday.
