Car Auctions

The Car Auctions in South Australia page provides you with links and information for car dealerships around South Australia.  It’s important to do your research before you arrive at a car auction.  If you know what you’re looking for and how to ensure that you get a good deal from an auction, you could really pick up a bargain.

Car Auctions can be a great way of finding a car at a much cheaper price than you could get with a dealer.  You can sometimes get great deals on repossessed or government vehicles through a car auction.

When buying at a car auction, it’s important to make sure that you understand how you stand legally, and that you’re getting value for money.  That’s why we’ve included a link to the RAA website.  There are plenty of good tips to make sure that the car you buy is the car you want.

Government Auctions SA holds a public auction every Wednesday at our Netley premises with a large range of vehicles.

You have a choice of Government owned cars and light commercial vehicles, including Camrys, Commodores, Magnas, Falcons and many more.  All vehicles have been well maintained and most are 24 months old or have travelled only 40,000 kms.

Apart from a good mix of makes and models, there's a great range of attractive colours and options, including dual airbag, anti locking brakes, air conditioning, and power steering. There are sedans, wagons, commercials, vans, utes and four wheel drives, many of which are still under manufacturer's warranty.

Buying privately or through an auction may provide you with greater bargaining power but does not allow you to trade in your old vehicle. If you purchase from a dealer, a warranty may apply, when buying privately or at auction you’ll receive no warranty.

There are a number of factors which must be considered when buying a used car. As the purchase is likely to be large in comparison to others made during day to day life, it’s worth stopping and considering each point in turn.

In addition to the information provided below, to make buying a used car easier, the RAA has produced a used car buyers’ inspection checklist and fact sheet, which members can print out and use as a point of reference. Check out the website for tips when buying used cars and buying at auction.
