If you are looking at buying, selling, insuring a classic car and want to make sure it is insured for its true value, we can help.
You may also need a car valuation for GST and depreciation calculations, estate or trust management, or to get financing.
Whatever the reason may be, we can help you!
As experts in classic cars and independent car valuators, we provide official, true to marketing classic car valuations to ensure your car is correctly valuated.
Our classic car valuation will take a look at the particular car in question and establish the true market value based on a number of factors including make, model and year, current condition, service history, any modifications, recent sales values of similar models and so on.
You can then use our report for buying or selling, getting insurance, SMSF funds or any other official purpose that requires you to prove the value of the vehicle.
We offer our car valuation service for any type of classic or vintage car or vehicle in Australia including muscle cars, European cars, Japanese cars and more, both factory standard and modified.
One of the most common reasons for needing a classic car valuation is for taking our a new new insurance policy for the car.
Many insurance companies use pre-set car values which often don’t reflect the true market value of the car if you were to have to replace the vehicle. This is especially true with rare or modified classics.
By getting an official valuation done, you can ensure that your classic is insured for its true value, and should you ever have to make a claim you will be properly compensated and will be able to repair or replace the car.
Are you looking at buying a classic car?
One of the best ways to ensure you are paying a fair price is to get the car valuated by an expert.
Getting the car valuated can reveal if the seller’s asking price is truly reflective of the current market value.
This is especially important for cars that are not easily checked, such as vintage or classic cars where the true value can be difficult to establish.
Getting a valuation done will also ensure that the car really is what the seller says it is (not a replica which is worth less, or has been modified in some way which makes it less valuable or collectable), and that the asking price does actually reflect what that model would sell for on the market.
This can help you to make the correct the decision about whether you want to purchase the car and if so, how much you should be willing to pay for it.
Looking to sell your classic car?
An official valuation car help you set a fair asking price.
Firstly, if you are unsure what the true value of the car is, or you just want a second opinion, a car valuation will reveal exactly what the car is worth. This might bring to your attention the fact that the car is actually worth more than you thought (which can happen with cars that are of special interest).
The car valuation will also help you to know exactly what you have, and can be used as a bargaining chip with buyers. It’s going to be much easier to hold to a price if you have an official valuation to back it up.
If you are looking to buy a classic car through your SMSF, one of the conditions are that it needs to be valuated each year.
We are able to ensure you get an SMSF car valuation that accurately reflects the true market value of your classic automobile.

Frank is professional in his communication and report writing. He is highly knowledgeable and experienced in the paint and repair industry. Without his services we would have been out of pocket by thousands and stuck with dodgy repairs. I'm sure that what he is doing is keeping the insurance and repair industry restrained from unscrupulous behaviour towards unsuspecting customers. God bless the team at National Assessing. keith mcilroy2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service if a little hard to get hold of every now and again Lucy Davison2024-09-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Everyone in the team helped me beyond words can describe! I bumped a car door in a car park, thought nothing of it it was so small (2cm deep 10cm wide), and their insurance company sent me a bill for almost $10,000! I was beyond shocked, I was terrified and unsure of what to do. I googled it and did some investigating and found National Assessing. They rang me, emailed me, answered every question and just generally helped me through every step of the awful situation. They reassessed the quote so thoroughly, wrote paragraphs of explanation to the insurance, and explained that the actual costs should be closer to $3,000! Basically, the mechanic scammed the insurance company who tried to pie their assessment error onto me! With National Assessings help and advice, I was able to negotiate with the insurance company to pay $2,000. Long story short they saved me $8,000 which I never ever should've had to pay! But not just that, they helped me stand up to a huge company who were intimidating me with jargon and court threats. Thank you so much Frank, Neringa and the whole team!
