How it works

Selling privately, minus the hassle.

We've simplified the private car selling process. Here's exactly what you do, what we do, and how your car gets from your driveway to a buyer who pays what it's worth.

The process

Four steps. We do the heavy lifting.

1

Value your car

Our market analysis tool uses the same data dealerships use to estimate what your car is worth and how long it may take to sell privately — so you set the right price from the start.

You: enter your rego. We: show your private-sale value and expected time to sell.

List it in minutes

Tell us your car's details and history — it usually takes a few minutes, with photo coaching as you go. No inspection visit needed. We run a free PPSR check, turn your photos into dealership-quality images, and publish your listing across Australia's largest marketplaces, including dealer-only ones.

You: add details, photos and when you're available for viewings. We: build and publish the listing.

Show your car

Track your listing's performance in your seller dashboard. We take the calls and messages, vet buyers, flag scammers, and book viewings and test drives around your availability and preferred location.

We: qualify buyers and lock in viewings. You: show the car to a serious buyer and keep your availability up to date.

Seal the deal, get paid

Viewing went well? Secure the deal and sign the transfer paperwork digitally. Whether the buyer pays cash or with finance, we handle the money transfer — and if there's a loan on your car, it's paid out in full before transfer.

We: hold the paperwork until funds clear, then lodge the transfer. You: hand over the keys. No sale, no fee.

About 1Wheel

Buying and selling cars should be easy.

As automotive professionals with years of experience, we've seen first-hand how daunting the private sales process can be. That's why we created 1Wheel — to make it easier, safer and more efficient for car owners and buyers alike.

We're a fully online, technology-based business. No car yards, showrooms or big sales teams — which is how we keep our fee low while delivering a top-tier service.

Licensed

We hold a Category A & C Motor Dealer Licence (MD30995), so every sale is handled properly.

Not a traditional dealer

We never buy your car. We sell it for you, to a private buyer, at a private-sale price.

You stay in control

You set your reserve price, you choose your viewing times, and you keep driving your car until it sells.
