What documents do I need to provide when buying a car?
Just a few essentials to make everything official — we’ll guide you through it.
We like to keep things simple — but there are a few key documents we’ll need from you to finalise your purchase and get your car ready to go.
Here’s what you’ll need:
✅ For all buyers:
-
A valid driver’s licence (Australian full licence or equivalent)
-
Proof of address (e.g. licence, utility bill, or lease agreement — if different from your ID)
-
Payment confirmation (or pre-approval paperwork if you’re financing externally)
🛠️ If you’re financing through CarPlace:
-
Proof of comprehensive insurance
Your car must be insured before we hand it over — we’ll guide you through this if you’re unsure.
🔁 If you’re trading in a vehicle:
-
Spare key(s)
-
Logbook/service history (if available)
-
Vehicle registration papers or transfer forms
(If there’s still finance owing on your trade-in, let us know — we can help settle that too.)
We’ll walk you through all of this when you place your order or pay a deposit. You’ll also get a checklist from your CarPlace partner to make sure nothing’s missed before handover.
Not sure if you’ve got everything? Just ask — we’re always here to help.
