How it works
How AutoSearch works.
Three ways to use New Zealand's AI car marketplace.
FIND MY CAR
Buyers describe. Dealers deliver.
Tell us what you want. Dealers compete to win your business. You pick the best deal — all in one place.
- 1
Describe what you want
Budget, body style, must-haves. Or jump straight in if you already know the make and model.
- 2
AI matches the right models
Our AI suggests 3–5 cars that fit your brief, with reliability ratings and real NZ price ranges.
- 3
Dealers compete with offers
Verified dealers in your region send real deal cards — price, warranty, finance, photos.
- 4
Pick the best deal
Compare every offer in your showroom. Best Match is highlighted. Message the dealer to close.
SELL MY CAR
Real dealer offers in 48 hours.
No tyre-kickers. No listing fees. Just verified dealer offers, completely free.

Plate lookup pre-fills make, model, year and odometer. Takes about ten seconds.

Accept the best offer
Dealers bid live. Compare offers side by side. Accept the winner — dealer arranges pickup.
