Sell your accident-damaged car for cash in South Africa

Accident damage, rising repair quotes, and a car that just stands. For many owners, that’s the point where fixing it no longer makes sense.

SYDC helps sell damaged cars without the drama, and you get paid immediately (immediate payment is a “real-time" payment, so money reflects immediately before we take your car).

We specialise in damaged cars of all kinds: accident write-offs, non-runners, cars with engine trouble, or vehicles that have failed the roadworthy test.

Why selling a car after an accident makes sense

After an accident, repair quotes climb quickly. One mechanic says one thing, the next says something else — and suddenly the car has been standing for months.

Damaged cars lose value every month they stand. Parts rust, batteries die, tyres crack, and the car becomes harder to sell privately.

Instead of sinking more money into repairs that might not last, now’s the time to choose to sell your accident-damaged cars for cash through a trusted buyer who understands salvage value.

Why SYDC is different

We’re not here to confuse you with big words or rush you into a bad deal. We explain how we value damaged cars, based on:

  • The accident damage and mechanical condition
  • Age and model of the vehicle
  • Expected repair and parts costs
  • Current salvage demand

This helps close the gap between retail prices you see online and the real value of damaged cars. No smoke, no tricks. Just straight talk.

And most importantly, you’re paid quickly on collection.

The best way to sell accident-damaged cars for cash

If you want to sell a broken car, private buyers typically prefer a running, roadworthy vehicle. Scrap yards often undercut you without explanation.

SYDC sits in the middle. We offer a fair price with proper paperwork and on-site payment when we collect.

What happens when you sell to us

We keep things simple and transparent:

  • You tell us about the car (accident damage, issues, location)
  • We make you a clear offer and explain the numbers
  • We arrange collection at your place
  • You’re immediate payment on collection, and we handle the paperwork

That’s it. No chasing buyers. No risky meet-ups. No waiting weeks.
