Buying A Car With A
Guaranteed Buy Back
If you are looking a good quality car but want to keep the costs to a minimum, don't hire it - buy it. We sell you a car and, if you want, when you are ready to leave you sell it back to us at a pre-arranged price.
The only condition to the buyback is that the vehicle is in approximately the same condition as when we sold it. You are, however, free to sell it to anyone else if you can get a better price.
Vehicle Preparation
Before a vehicle is handed over it is given a complete mechanical check. Any faults found that are critical to the safe and reliable operation of the vehicle are fixed. It is then given a complete service - oil change, new oil filter, new spark plugs, new distributor points, new air filter, etc. Finally it is tuned and set up to run efficiently and reliably.
Warranties
A 14 day warranty is given with all vehicles sold. This covers all mechanical breakdowns with the exception of damage caused by negligence or misuse of the vehicle.
Insurance
Insurance is not mandatory in this country - you may drive without it. You may arrange for insurance cover yourself - but we can arrange insurance cover for you. Cheapest option is "third party only" which covers damage to anything you hit. "Third party, fire, and theft" protects you against damage to any other vehicle, or the theft or burning of your vehicle. Or you can have comprehensive insurance that protects your vehicle and anything else you damage.

Warrant of Fitness And Registration
For any car to be street legal, it must have a Warrant of Fitness (WOF) - a Government quality-assured safety test. It is one of the most rigorous safety tests in the world that must be passed every six months. In addition all vehicles must be registered - i.e. pay the government another dollop of tax. All our vehicles are delivered with a recent warrant of fitness and are registered.
Distance Limitations
Buybacks have a free km allowance of 7000km over two months plus 1000km for each subsequent month - more than enough for 99% of travellers. Most visitors will do 4500 to 6500km in two months. If you do manage to exceed the distance allowance we reserve the right to reduce the buy-back price by 10c per extra km.
