Scrap car and removal truck parked together in Nelson

Is your car out of WOF? 🚫
Maybe it failed inspection… or maybe it’s just been sitting too long.
Good news — you can still sell it for top cash in Nelson, even without a valid Warrant of Fitness.

Here’s how it works.

Why WOF is a Problem for Private Sales?

In New Zealand, selling a car privately without a WOF less than 1 month old can:

  • ❌ Limit your buyers

  • ❌ Reduce sale value

  • ❌ Raise legal issues

  • ❌ Delay your sale

Most buyers won’t take the risk — or they’ll lowball you.
