Insurance write-offs still have significant market value — they're just not economical to repair. We buy both Category A (non-repairable) and Category B (repairable but written off) vehicles in Whangarei and Northland.
Category A vs Category B Write-Offs
Category A: Non-repairable. The vehicle must be crushed. We assess salvageable parts value before crushing — and pay accordingly.
Category B: Repairable but written off by insurer. Can be repaired and re-certified. We buy Cat B write-offs for parts or whole-vehicle resale purposes.
NZTA Write-Off Status and Value
A write-off designation affects a vehicle's re-registration potential but doesn't affect its parts value. A written-off 2018 Toyota HiLux still has a valuable engine, gearbox, and tray — we pay for these components, not the vehicle's registrability.
