What do I have to pay upfront?

"Our plans are made to suit you, and we want to make things easy. That's why our deposit starts at just $2000. Plus, the deposit you pay upfront goes towards the total cost of your car."

Do you check credit history?

We certainly don’t check credit history and our plans are available for everyone.

How long does it take to get a car?

Most of our cars are ready for you on the same day you apply. However, if a vehicle happens to be out of stock, there might be a waiting period.

Can I pay off the car before the end of the term?

Yes. At our core, we prioritize your convenience and flexibility. Waiting for years to own your car is not our style. If you're able to pay off your car sooner, you're welcome to do so at any point during your contract. Additionally, making extra repayments won't cost you a penny more. This feature empowers you to accelerate the car ownership journey without incurring any additional charges.

Is there any option for returning the car?

We are committed to helping our customers achieve their goal of owning their dream car. However, we recognize that unforeseen circumstances can arise, prompting the need to return the vehicle earlier than anticipated. Therefore, we do provide this option after you've fulfilled the minimum 26-week period. A two weeks' notice is required, and a break-out fee may apply.

Is there any weekly limit on kilometers?

There is no weekly limit on mileage. However, a surcharge of $0.10 per kilometre will apply if the vehicle exceeds 1,000 kilometres. This surcharge is only applicable if the vehicle is returned.

Can I go out of state?

Yes, you may travel out of state for holidays, provided you notify the company in advance via message. However, permanently relocating outside of NSW will void your contract and may result in penalties.

Is there any minimum period of contract?

The minimum contract period is 26 weeks from the commencement date. Termination is permitted only after the initial 26 weeks, with a required notice period of 2 weeks.

Is there a buyout option?

Yes, a buyout option is available at any stage of the contract. Furthermore, customers may make extra repayments at no additional cost for their convenience.
