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.
Trends & Insights
Burns & Co’s three-night Muscle & Classics sale in Bayswater (9-11 November) closed above 91% clearance across 113 lots, headlined by a 1986 Holden HDT VL SS Group A Plus Pack at $270,793 and a low-kilometre 2017 Holden GTSR Maloo LSA at $159,080 (Burns & Co Auctions, Nov 11). That is a record result for the house and confirms that blue-chip Australian performance metal is still setting the ceiling in this market.
Online prestige bidding is running hot too. Collecting Cars logged an all-time ANZ record in October at $6.65m in sales, with 8,703 bids from 1,118 bidders, up 31% year on year, and Victorian results including a 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT C at $240,000 and a 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS at $235,250 (Autotalk Australia, Nov 2). The depth of bidder numbers matters more than the headline total, because it signals a broader buyer pool competing for the same stock.
Fleet and government channels stayed active. Toyota Landcruiser medians held around $14,924 across 32 Victorian government lots since June, with a 2014 Sahara diesel at $20,100 on 4 November and a 2011 Prado at $15,000 on 28 October (GovAuctions.app, Nov 4). Pickles VicFleet (10 November) and Manheim Altona North (11 November) offered 75+ and 92+ lots respectively, including a 2023 Kia EV6, Ford Ranger, Isuzu D-MAX and Hyundai Kona Electric (Auction Finder, Nov 7). Grays also ran unreserved Dandenong South sales closing around 11 November with Renault Clio, BMW X5, Toyota Aurion and Ford Territory lots (Grays Australia, Nov 11), while Gollant’s Tullamarine clearance closed 10 November with 2021 and 2016 Rangers, a HiAce, an Isuzu NPR truck and Holden SS utilities under a 16% buyer’s premium (HiBid.com / Gollant Auctioneers, Nov 10).
Watch late-model ex-fleet EV and ute listings closely next week, since supply is steady and buyer depth on the prestige side suggests competition will spill into mainstream stock.

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.
Donington Auctions
Donington Auctions, based in Victoria, specialise in collector car and motorcycle auctions along with automotive memorabilia.

The Collection of a Sydney Connoisseur Featuring Rare Automotive Literature and Fine Models
More detail
This one comes from a Sydney connoisseur, and the depth shows. The collection leans on automotive literature, the sort of factory publications, workshop manuals and marque histories that rarely surface together, alongside fine models built to a standard collectors chase for years.
Donington Auctions runs the sale out of Melbourne VIC, and the catalogue sits across collectables and classic-car categories. Literature lots reward the buyer who reads the descriptions properly, since condition and edition matter as much as the title.
Worth a close look if you have been chasing reference material for a restoration or want display pieces with genuine provenance behind them.

The Fine Automotive Garage Auction – Featuring the Contents of a Richmond Warehouse
More detail
Donington Auctions runs this one out of Melbourne, specialising in classic, collector and performance car sales. The Richmond warehouse contents form the backbone of the catalogue, mixing European marques with muscle cars and motorcycles.
Beyond the vehicles, the sale takes in industrial equipment and collectables, so there is plenty to sort through beyond the headline lots. The garage setting suggests workshop gear and accumulated stock alongside the cars themselves.
Closing 23 November 2026. Worth a look if you are chasing project cars, parts or workshop equipment in one hit.
-

Classic & Collector Car Auction
More detail
Donington Auctions runs a dedicated classic and collector car program out of Melbourne, covering European marques, muscle cars and motorcycles. This sale is in the consignment phase, which means the catalogue is still being built and sellers can still put vehicles forward.
For buyers, that timing matters. Early consignments usually mean a broader spread of stock by the time bidding opens, from restoration projects to well-kept performance cars and two-wheelers.
Keep the 23 November 2026 close in mind and check back as lots are added. Full details and the growing lot list are on the Donington Auctions listing.

The Maritime & Angling Auction – CONSIGNING NOW
More detail
Donington Auctions runs classic, collector and performance car sales out of Melbourne, with a reputation for European marques, muscle cars and motorcycles. This one widens the net to maritime and angling gear, which means the catalogue should carry the odd mix you only get when a shed, a garage and a boat get cleared in one go.
Consignments are open now, so what lands in the catalogue is still being decided. If you have maritime or fishing gear sitting unused, this is the moment to have a chat with the auctioneer.
Close date is 18 January 2027. Plenty of time to watch the listings build.
Manheim
Manheim Victoria (Altona North) is the national head office, running weekly clearing auctions for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, fleet returns, and ex-government stock. Simulcast bidding available.
Pickles
Pickles VIC operates from Altona North, Sunshine, and Tullamarine, running weekly vehicle auctions covering passenger cars, fleet returns, 4WDs, and ex-government stock.

VicFleet Vehicles Auction
More detail
Fleet auctions are where the sensible money goes, and this VicFleet lineup is heavy on the stuff people actually want. The 2023 Kona Electric appears twice alongside a Kia Niro EV, so there is a real choice if you are after a used EV with factory warranty still on the clock. Hybrid buyers get a 2023 Forester Hybrid L, and the near-new 2025 Outback AWD Sport is the youngest thing on the list.
The Toyota contingent is solid: two 2023 Corolla Ascent Sports, a 2023 RAV4 GX and a 2019 Corolla Ascent Sport for anyone watching the budget. Family hauling is covered by the Kia Carnival S and Hyundai Santa Fe, with the Mitsubishi Outlander ES rounding out the SUV side.
Inspection is at Sunshine North in Melbourne’s west. With 12 or more lots and a 17 November close, do your homework on service history and odometer readings before you bid.
