What's this car really worth?
Enter the rego or VIN and add your photos. HawkEye runs the PPSR checks, inspects the car for damage and wear, prices every repair, and tells you what it's worth and the most you should pay.

Most reports check the paperwork. HawkEye checks the car
A database report only knows what has been filed about a car. Upload up to 12 of your own photos, or paste the ad, and HawkEye inspects them for the things that cost you money.
- Dents, scrapes and panel damage
- Worn seats, trim and steering wheel
- Tyres and warning lights on the dash
- Each fault priced on its own line, likely and worst case
- A warning when the photos don't match the car on the register

01

Selling or trading in
See the retail and wholesale numbers for yourself before you take a dealer's offer.

It is the median asking price of clean comparable cars advertised right now: same make, model and badge, year within one, closest in kilometres, across every source, adjusted to the car's kilometres. Listings that mention damage, mechanical faults, no rego or needing work are left out. See how the pricing works.
With no subscription a HawkEye report is A$29.99. Quick valuations are included on every plan. Dealer includes 2 HawkEye reports a month and Dealer Pro 5. Beyond that, each one is A$14.99 including GST, added to your next invoice. A plate or VIN that matches no car is not charged, and unused reports do not roll over.
No. Every value is an estimate from other listings and the ad itself. It is not an inspection, an appraisal or financial advice. Always inspect the car and check its history before you buy.
