[Get My Free Quote](https://penrithcashforcars.com.au/cash-for-non-running-cars-penrith/#quote) [Call 02 8203 7475](tel:+61282037475) Free collection · Cash or bank transfer · Individual vehicle assessment QUOTED IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION ## Not starting and not moving are different problems A car that will not start may still roll and steer. Another may start but have a transmission fault, damaged wheel or seized brakes that stop it moving. Explain both the engine condition and wheel movement. If you do not know the fault, say that rather than paying for a diagnosis solely to request an enquiry. ### Details for your quote - Make, model, year and approximate kilometres - Whether it starts, runs briefly or does not start at all - Known faults, missing keys and parts removed - Whether it rolls and steers, plus photos of the pickup access ## Tell us what happened and what is still fitted Useful details include when it last ran, symptoms you noticed and any repair work or parts removal already carried out. Mention a missing engine, gearbox, battery or wheels. You do not need to attempt repairs, jump-start an unsafe vehicle or drive it for us. Photos of the whole vehicle and known damage help the team understand the enquiry. ## Loading access matters for a broken-down car Tell us if the car is in a basement, garage, yard, narrow driveway or behind another car. Locked steering, flat tyres, a transmission stuck in park and missing keys can change the loading plan. Send access photos if requested, with the vehicle and space around it visible. The team confirms whether collection is suitable before setting a time. ## An individual offer with free collection We assess the make, model, year, kilometres, condition, completeness and collection details. A non-running car does not have one fixed value. Ask for a no-obligation offer and decide whether to proceed. After acceptance and access confirmation, collection is free in our service areas. Payment is by cash or bank transfer when we collect. ## Your selling questions Must I get the car running first? No. Tell us its current condition and any known fault. Avoid starting or moving it if that could be unsafe. What if I do not know the mechanical problem? Say that the fault is unknown and describe what you observed. The quote is based on the information and condition supplied. Can a car without keys be collected? Missing keys do not automatically rule out an enquiry. Tell us about locked steering, wheel movement and access so we can assess it. ## Useful details for your make and model Read the [Toyota Camry guide](https://penrithcashforcars.com.au/cars-we-buy/toyota/camry/) , [Ford Focus guide](https://penrithcashforcars.com.au/cars-we-buy/ford/focus/) , [BMW 3 Series guide](https://penrithcashforcars.com.au/cars-we-buy/bmw/3-series/) or find your vehicle in [all model guides](https://penrithcashforcars.com.au/cars-we-buy/#model-guides) .
