FAQ

Which auction houses sell cars in Melbourne?
Pickles and Manheim operate the highest-volume yards in Melbourne, running weekly sales from Sunshine and Altona. Lloyds, Grays, Slattery, and specialist houses like Donington and Burns & Co. also list Victorian vehicles regularly.

Do Melbourne vehicle auctions offer inspection days?
Yes (except Pickles). Most major auctioneers hold inspection sessions the business day before online auctions close. Dates are listed on each auctioneer’s sale page.

What fees should I budget for?
Buyer’s premium of 10–18% plus GST is the main additional cost. See here for more details on auction fees. Factor in transport, roadworthy (if needed), and PPSR check costs for a true total.

Rod’s Tips

Melbourne has more classic and collector car specialists than anywhere else in Australia. Donington, Burns & Co., and Lloyds all run VIC-based classic events – more here

Pickles Sunshine and Manheim Altona run regular government fleet sales. Ex-VicFleet vehicles are well-maintained and often sold without reserve but expect strong bidding competition.

PPSR check every vehicle before bidding. Finance encumbrances and write-off records are common in the used car market. Most auctioneers should do this for you but a PPSR check is $2, why not.

  • Sydney Mixed Model Auction

    Sydney Mixed Model Auction

    Mon 6 Jul 2026 • Melbourne VIC • Donington Auctions

    A mixed-model collection of classic cars, collectables, and motorcycles is crossing the block in Melbourne VIC, offered by Donington Auctions. The lot list includes a 1965 Ford Mustang fastback, a 1970 Holden Monaro GTS, a 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera, and a 1976 Ducati 900SS.

    More detail

    This sale leans hard into the golden era of European sports cars and Australian muscle. The Mustang fastback is a genuine A-code 289 car, while the Monaro GTS is a documented 350 V8 example. The Porsche 911 Carrera is a 2.7-litre MFI car, a rare early 1970s spec that collectors chase.

    Motorcycle buyers should note the Ducati 900SS, a bevel-drive twin that’s become a serious investment piece. There’s also a 1973 Norton Commando 850 Roadster and a 1967 Triumph Bonneville T120R. The collectables section mixes in automotive memorabilia, including signed motorsport posters and a set of vintage Castrol oil cans.

    Bidding closes 6 July 2026. Inspection is available in Melbourne prior. If you’re after a driver-quality classic or a solid project, this catalogue has a bit of both.

  • The Kerry Manolas Collection of Rare Memorabilia- Part I: Featuring Ferrari and other fine Italian Marques

    The Kerry Manolas Collection of Rare Memorabilia- Part I: Featuring Ferrari and other fine Italian Marques

    Mon 13 Jul 2026 • Melbourne VIC • Donington Auctions

    A private collection of rare memorabilia focused on Ferrari and other fine Italian marques is hitting the block through Donington Auctions in Melbourne VIC. Expect signed photographs, original brochures, and workshop manuals from the Maranello factory, plus badges and scale models from the likes of Alfa Romeo and Maserati.

    More detail

    This is Part I of the Kerry Manolas Collection, and it’s a deep dive for anyone who follows the Prancing Horse. The lot list includes period-correct Ferrari racing posters, enamel badges from the 1960s, and a run of leather-bound presentation books used by the factory sales team. For the restorers, there are NOS (new old stock) gasket sets and camshafts for 250 and 330 series cars.

    Donington Auctions have grouped the memorabilia by marque, so if you’re after Maserati 3500 GT brochures or Lancia Fulvia homologation papers, they’re in there too. The classic car section is thin on actual vehicles for this event, but the paper and parts alone could fill gaps in a serious collection. Check the close date: July 13, 2026. Bid online or attend the Melbourne viewing day.

  • The Kerry Manolas Collection of Rare Memorabilia- Part II: Featuring Motor Racing and Great Marques

    The Kerry Manolas Collection of Rare Memorabilia- Part II: Featuring Motor Racing and Great Marques

    Mon 13 Jul 2026 • Melbourne VIC • Donington Auctions

    A two-part collection of rare memorabilia from a single owner is hitting the block, run by Donington Auctions in Melbourne VIC. The second instalment features motor racing gear and Great Marques items, including signed photographs, vintage posters, and model cars.

    More detail

    This is the Kerry Manolas Collection Part II, and it’s packed with petrolhead heritage. The lot list leans into motor racing history with signed memorabilia from drivers like Jack Brabham and Alan Jones, plus enamel signs, trophies, and original race programmes. Great Marques fans will find badges, brochures, and dealer items from Ferrari, Porsche, and Aston Martin.

    Buyers should note the close date is 13 July 2026, giving you time to dig through the catalogue. Donington Auctions has a solid rep for collector car gear, so condition and provenance are likely tight. If you’re after a piece of Australian or international racing history, this is the one to watch.

  • The Premium Number Plate Auction

    The Premium Number Plate Auction

    Mon 27 Jul 2026 • Melbourne VIC • Donington Auctions

    Over 200 personalised and heritage number plates are going to auction through Donington Auctions in Melbourne VIC. The list includes single-digit plates, low-number combinations, and distinctive letter sequences with strong resale potential.

    More detail

    This is a pure plate auction, not a car sale, so the focus is entirely on the metal. The catalogue spans everything from prestige Victorian heritage plates to modern personalised combinations. Classic car collectors often chase plates that match their vehicle’s era, and this sale has plenty of pre-1960s options.

    Key lots include several single and double-digit Victorian plates, which historically hold their value better than most investments. There are also themed sets, initials, and short numeric runs that appeal to both enthusiasts and investors. Bidders should check the reserve structure: some plates carry minimum bids, others are absolute.

    Donington Auctions runs this format regularly, so the process is straightforward. Online bidding is open now until the close date. If you are after a specific letter or number combination, scan the full lot list early. Plates in high-demand categories often draw competitive bidding in the final hours.

  • Gollant — Major Vehicle Excavator Hardware And Tapware

    Gollant — Major Vehicle Excavator Hardware And Tapware

    Date TBC • Melbourne, VIC • gollant

    Vehicles, excavator hardware, and tapware are all crossing the block with Gollant in Melbourne, VIC. The lot list includes new automotive paints, primers, thinners, Rustoleum, Hi-Chem marine gear, concrete coatings, buckets, bird netting, and chamois.

    More detail

    The paint and coating section is the standout here. You’ll find 2-pac finishes, enamels, kerosene, dark oxide, and platinum clear along with concrete paint and etch primers. That’s a solid haul for anyone respraying gear or doing industrial touch-ups.

    Beyond the paints, there’s concrete coatings, bird netting, and marine-grade product from Hi-Chem. The hardware side brings in tapware and buckets. With the close date still to be confirmed, check the listing regularly for the update. This is a broad stock clearance, so the mix is worth a browse if you need raw materials for jobs rather than finished goods.

Grays Online

Grays Online lists Victorian vehicle lots continuously featuring passenger cars, SUVs, ex-hire stock, and fleet disposals with Melbourne-based pickup.

  • Online - Grays - VIC Template Auto (Dandenong)

    Online – Grays – VIC Template Auto (Dandenong)

    Sun 5 Jul 2026 • Dandenong South, VIC • 3 lots • Grays Online

    Three work utes are crossing the block in a Dandenong South auction from Grays. The lot list includes a 2006 Toyota Hiace Diesel, a 2007 Toyota Hiace Diesel, and a 2011 Ford Ranger XL Diesel.

    More detail

    This is a tight, focused auction for anyone needing a solid trade vehicle or a cheap runabout. The two Toyota Hiaces are workhorses from the same generation, both diesel, and both likely to have seen plenty of site time. The 2011 Ford Ranger XL is a more modern option, still running the proven diesel drivetrain.

    All three vehicles are listed in VIC. With a close date of 5 July 2026, there is time to inspect or arrange a mechanical check if you are local. Given these are ex-fleet or trade-in stock, expect typical wear, but also realistic reserve prices. If you need a reliable ute or van without paying dealer retail, this is worth a look.

  • Melbourne Motor Vehicle Auction

    Melbourne Motor Vehicle Auction

    Mon 6 Jul 2026 • Dandenong South, VIC • 12 lots • Grays Online

    More detail

    The 2015 Mazda CX-5 Akera is the pick of the bunch if you want a family SUV with all the fruit. It has the petrol engine, so no diesel hassles, and the Akera trim means leather, sunroof, and Bose sound. The 2013 Nissan Navara RX diesel is the workhorse option, handy for tradies or anyone needing a dual-cab ute.

    There is also a 2011 Nissan X-Trail ST petrol in the mix, which is a solid budget SUV for weekend trips. The 2009 Holden Cruze CD is the cheap entry point, but check the service history on that one. All vehicles are located in Dandenong South, so you can inspect before bidding closes on 6 July 2026.

  • EOI - Auto Manufacturing Equipmen T- Closing 16th July

    If you are tooling up a factory or expanding capacity, this is a rare chance to buy modern die casting equipment in one hit. The closing date is firm on 16 July, so get your expression of interest in early. Expect competition from domestic and overseas buyers.

  • 2010 BMW X1 sDrive 18i E84 Automatic Wagon

    2010 BMW X1 sDrive 18i E84 Automatic Wagon

    Date TBC • Dandenong South, VIC • Grays Online

    A 2010 BMW X1 sDrive 18i E84 Automatic Wagon is up in a Grays Online auction from Dandenong South, VIC. This individual lot is a petrol wagon with the 2.0-litre engine and five-door practicality.

    More detail

    This is a single-vehicle listing from Grays Online, part of their rolling auction format for passenger vehicles. The 2010 BMW X1 sDrive 18i is the entry-level rear-wheel-drive wagon, offering a balance of European badge prestige and everyday usability. With the E84 body style, it’s a compact SUV that drives more like a car, making it a solid pick for city commutes or weekend trips.

    Check the listing for current odometer reading, service history, and condition notes. As with any Grays auction, factor in the buyer’s premium and arrange your own inspection if possible. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so monitor the listing for the final countdown.

  • Ford F350 Automatic Ute

    Ford F350 Automatic Ute

    Date TBC • VIC • Grays Online

    A Ford F350 Automatic Ute is up for sale in VIC through Grays Online. This is a full-size American workhorse, likely a late-model example with a diesel or petrol V8 under the bonnet.

    More detail

    This listing is a single vehicle lot from Grays Online’s ongoing passenger and light commercial sales. The F350 is a serious towing and hauling rig, often fitted with a turbo-diesel and heavy-duty suspension. If the example here is a recent year, expect creature comforts like leather trim and a large touchscreen alongside its commercial capability.

    Buyers should check the specific model year, engine type, and odometer reading in the full listing. The close date is still to be confirmed, so monitor the page for updates. Given the size and weight of these trucks, factor in registration and compliance costs if it’s an import.

  • Iveco Daily   Manual

    Iveco Daily Manual

    Date TBC • VIC • Grays Online

    A manual Iveco Daily van is up for sale through Grays Online in VIC. This particular lot is a diesel manual, a configuration that’s getting harder to find in the used market.

    More detail

    This is an individual vehicle listing from Grays Online’s rolling stock of passenger and light commercial vehicles. The Iveco Daily is a solid workhorse, and the manual gearbox gives you full control over the drivetrain, which is a bonus for towing or heavy loads.

    Check the listing for service history and current odometer reading before you bid. Given it’s a manual diesel Daily, expect strong interest from tradies and camper van converters. The close date is still to be confirmed, so refresh the page if you’re keen.

  • Toyota RAV4 FWD Automatic SUV

    Toyota RAV4 FWD Automatic SUV

    Date TBC • VIC • Grays Online

    A Toyota RAV4 FWD Automatic SUV is up for sale through Grays in Victoria. This is a well-known model for reliable around-town driving and light weekend trips.

    More detail

    This Grays Online auction focuses on a single Toyota RAV4 with front-wheel drive and an automatic transmission. It fits into their broader rolling inventory of passenger vehicles, SUVs, utes, and vans. The RAV4 is a popular choice for its practical cabin and decent fuel economy.

    If you need a dependable daily driver without the new-car price tag, this one is worth a look. Check the listing for the current bid and any condition notes before the close date is announced.

  • Holden Rodeo Manual - 5 Speed Ute

    Holden Rodeo Manual – 5 Speed Ute

    Date TBC • VIC • Grays Online

    A 2000s Holden Rodeo manual ute is up for bidding through Grays in VIC. This single lot offers a five-speed workhorse with a tray, ideal for tradies or farm use.

    More detail

    This Rodeo is part of Grays’ ongoing vehicle sale, which cycles through passenger cars, SUVs, vans, and light commercials. The listing points to a manual diesel, a configuration that’s becoming harder to find in clean condition. No close date is set yet, so it pays to check back regularly.

    Buyers should factor in the usual auction conditions: the vehicle is sold as-is, with no warranty. Inspect the listing photos for rust or wear around the tray and cabin. If the body and driveline are straight, this could be a cheap runabout or a parts donor for another Rodeo project.

  • Melbourne Motor Vehicle Auction Sports & Lux (Dandenong)

    Melbourne Motor Vehicle Auction Sports & Lux (Dandenong)

    Date TBC • Dandenong South, VIC • 2 lots • Grays Online

    Two luxury European cars are crossing the block in Dandenong South with Grays. The standout is a 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE Diesel, alongside a 2007 Bentley Continental GTC petrol convertible.

    More detail

    This pair covers two very different tastes in high-end motoring. The Range Rover Sport HSE Diesel is a modern family hauler with serious road presence. The 3.0-litre turbodiesel offers strong towing capacity and long-range cruising ability for a buyer wanting luxury without the fuel bill of a V8.

    The Bentley is the wildcard. A 2007 Continental GTC with all-wheel drive and a petrol engine, it represents early 2000s grand touring excess. Convertible roof, quad exhausts, and a cabin trimmed in wood and leather. Check the service history carefully, as maintenance on these W12-powered cars is not cheap. Both lots are titled with no reserve, so the starting bid will be the key.
