Value My Car
How is my car's value calculated?
While an online valuation offers a preliminary guide, the actual value of your car can depend on several factors that are assessed by our expert team. The process begins with industry data that provides a baseline, but to ensure accuracy, we consider:
The Make and Model of Your Car
Certain brands and models can retain value or depreciate differently based on consumer preferences and reliability.

Condition
The overall state of your vehicle, both interior and exterior, significantly influences its value. Well-maintained cars always fetch a higher price.

Market Demand
The current market demand for your type of vehicle can greatly affect how much it's worth. Popular models in good condition might sell for more.

How is my car's value calculated?
- We figure out your car's value by comparing it to real vehicles being bought and sold right now across the New Zealand Car market. That includes looking at your make, model, year, mileage and features, alongside demand for your type of Car today.
- We also pull in real dealer pricing and recent sales data to help you see what buyers are actually paying. More than a ballpark figure, it's a realistic guide based on your car's current market value.
- This helps Car owners and businesses determine a fair sale or purchase price with confidence. Whether you're planning to sell, trade, or talk to a finance company, it's vital information that gives you more confidence in your next step.
- Your result reflects the current range of market values for similar vehicles. If you're after a more accurate figure, we can follow up with a personalised valuation report that considers your car's condition, demand, and sale potential.

What information do I need to use the car valuation tool?
- All you need is your number plate or VIN, plus your current odometer reading. These details allow us to match your vehicle with live market data so we can provide a fast and accurate valuation you can rely on.
- This free service is designed to be simple enough for the average person but smart enough to give you insights you can trust. It only takes a few seconds, and you don't need to sign up or enter loads of details.
-

Does the condition of my car affect the valuation?
- Yes, your car's condition plays a major factor in what it's worth. While your instant result gives you a solid market value estimate based on similar vehicles, we all know not every Car is the same.
- If your Car has been well looked after (clean inside, well-maintained, with a solid service record), it can make a real difference to the final price, especially when compared to similar models in average condition. If it's a bit rough around the edges, that’ll affect the figure too. Either way, we’re here to help you get a valuation that reflects your specific Car, not just a generic model.

Can I still get a valuation if my car has damage or high mileage?
- Absolutely. Every Car has a value, even the ones that have done a few laps or picked up some wear and tear. You'll still get a realistic estimate based on how similar Cars are priced in today's market. Even if your Car has a few rough spots or higher mileage, it's worth knowing what kind of money it could still bring in.
- It's helpful to know where you stand, especially if you're planning to sell, trade in, or even just want to talk to your insurer or finance company. This is all about giving you the full picture: not just when your Car is in showroom condition, but in real-world condition too.

Will someone contact me after I get a valuation?
- Only if you'd like us to. Your instant result is yours to use, no strings attached. We know some people just want the number, while others want to talk it through, so we leave that choice up to you.
- If you do want a more tailored independent vehicle valuation or a second opinion, we're happy to assist. There is also an option to get an obligation free offer from Turners after you've valued your Car.
- But if not, that's totally fine. No pressure, just helpful info when you need it.
-
+
What if I am not ready to sell?
- That's completely fine. In fact, a lot of New Zealanders use the tool just to get a sense of where their Car sits in the market, even if they have no plans to sell.
- No matter if you're thinking about a future sale, purchase, trade, finance application or insurance update, knowing your car's value gives you a better idea of what to expect.
-

Is the valuation really free?
- Yes, it's 100 percent free. There is no cost, no account needed, no sneaky conditions, and no pressure to sell. It's simply a way to give every owner access to reliable, independent vehicle pricing backed by real market data.
- Whether you're selling, trading, updating your insurance, or just curious, this is a quick and easy way to find out what your car could be worth and ensure you're getting the right amount in return for your vehicle.
