The same car, a very different afternoon
| What you’re comparing | A dealership | Carvioo |

| Getting a number | Book an appraisal, drive over, wait | Two minutes online, from your kitchen |
| The price | Negotiated, and only if you push | Firm, in writing, locked for 7 days |
| Getting paid | Cheque in the mail, eventually | Sent before we leave your driveway |

| Still financing it | Your problem to sort out first | We settle the lien directly |
Here is the arithmetic
Four steps, applied the same way to every car. Ask us for the working and we will send it.
Base value
What your year, make, model and trim is worth in BC this week.
Kilometres
Measured against the average for its age. Under helps you, over costs you.
Condition
Accident history, faults, rust, cosmetics. An honest answer here protects your number.
Our costs
Reconditioning and our margin. We show a range because the inspection can move it.
Where we collect
Free pickup everywhere on this list. If you are outside it, send us the car anyway and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.

Step 1 of 5
Which car are we buying
Your plate is the fastest way. We’ll show you what we found before you go any further. Demo plates: CV8 41J, RT2 09K, CL5 63B. Demo VINs: 2HGFC2F54JH500001 (Civic), 2T3W1RFV2LW000001 (RAV4), 3VWDB7AJ1JM000001 (Jetta, manual). Any other 17-character VIN is decoded live once an API key is set.
The basics
Five quick answers. Only the odometer changes your price at this stage.
Transmission
Who is the vehicle registered to?
Is there a loan or lease on it?
No problem. We settle the balance directly with your lender and send you the difference.
Condition and history
Be straight with us. The inspection finds it anyway, and an honest answer now means the number doesn’t move on pickup day. Tick everything that applies.
Exterior damage
Any rust?
What kind of rust?
Interior damage
Mechanical issues or warning lights?
Which ones? Tick all that apply

Where do we send it
Your range appears on the next screen. We need this to send the firm offer and book the pickup.
Estimated range for your
This is an estimate, not the final number. Someone here reviews your car and sends a firm offer within 24 hours, good for seven days. It only moves if the car differs from what you told us.
- We email your firm offer within 24 hours.
- Accept it and pick a pickup window that suits you.
- Fifteen-minute inspection on your driveway, then payment.
We can’t price this one automatically
That doesn’t mean we won’t buy it
A car in this condition needs a person to look at it. We’ve saved your details and someone will call you within one business day with a number. Plenty of the cars we buy come in this way.
- A buyer calls you within one business day.
- Send a few photos if you have them. It speeds things up.
- Still free pickup, still paid on the spot.
We drive to you every time
A flatbed, a licensed mechanic and a two-hour window you choose. The inspection happens on your driveway, the money leaves before we do, and the car goes on the truck. You do not go anywhere.

Selling more than one?
We buy fleets, estates and dealer part-exchange stock across British Columbia.

The awkward questions
Answered plainly, because you will ask them anyway.
I still owe money on it. Does that stop this?
No, and it is one of the most common cars we buy. We contact your lender, settle the outstanding balance directly, and send you whatever is left over. If you owe more than the car is worth you can pay us the difference and we will still take it away.
The car is not in my name.
We can only buy from the registered owner or someone with written authority to sell on their behalf. If the car belongs to a business, an estate, or a co-owner, tell us at step two and we will send the exact paperwork you need before pickup, so nobody wastes a trip.
It was bought out of province. Is that a problem?
Not for us. Out-of-province vehicles need a provincial safety inspection before they can be resold in British Columbia, and that is our cost to carry, not yours. It is already accounted for in the number we quote you.
What will you not buy?
We do not buy vehicles with an active lien we cannot verify, cars that have been written off and not properly rebuilt with documentation, or anything we suspect is stolen. Everything else, including non-runners and cars with accident history, we will make an offer on.
Will the price change when you turn up?
Only if the car is not what you told us it was. The inspection checks the same 172 points every time against your answers. If it matches, the number you agreed is the number you get paid, and you get paid before we drive away.
