The Queensland market, not a national average

Queensland buyers lean towards utes, four-wheel drives and SUVs, and prices for those move with local demand. PL8ED compares your car with similar cars sold in Queensland, so you see the Brisbane and QLD market rather than a national figure.

Buying in Brisbane? Check the PPSR

Buying a used car in Brisbane or anywhere in Queensland? Check the PPSR first. If the car has finance owing, it can be repossessed even after you buy it. The PL8ED report includes the official PPSR check with the car's market value.

Full PPSR check + market value: $18.95, one report. What the PPSR check shows.

Car valuation in Brisbane: straight answers

How much is my car worth in Brisbane?
Enter your Queensland plate and kilometres on PL8ED for a free range. The full report shows your car's market price, the PPSR check, trade-in range and comparable cars.
Can I value a car with a QLD plate?
Yes. Choose Queensland on the plate form.
Why is a dealer's trade-in offer lower than the market price?
A dealer has to recondition, hold and resell the car, so a trade-in sits below what the car sells for. The PL8ED report shows a modelled trade-in range and explains the gap.
Who registers cars in Queensland?
Cars in Queensland are registered by the Department of Transport and Main Roads. Registration is not a valuation; PL8ED values cars from dealer sales, powered by MotorMetrics.

Built on a dealer pricing engine

PL8ED runs on MotorMetrics, a pricing engine that Australian dealers use to price the cars they buy and sell. Now you get the same view of the market.

Buying? Get the PPSR check

The PPSR is the national register of money owed against cars. In the buyer's report we search it by VIN and put the result next to the price. It tells you three things before you hand over a cent. Already have a Market Report? Add it for $4.

Buying privately? Always get a PPSR check before you pay. If money is owed on the car, the lender may be able to take it from you, even after you have paid the seller.

It does not show accident history, and it does not say how much is owed.
