Frequently asked questions

• What does a vehicle broker do?

  A vehicle broker allows you to buy or lease virtually any new or used vehicle for potentially thousands less than the dealer's absolute lowest price. Vehicle Brokers pool your purchase together with other buyers to gain bulk discounts from the dealers that are then passed back to you.

• How do I use a Tasman broker?

  There's no such thing as a great deal on the wrong car so the best thing to do if you're considering purchasing a new or used vehicle is to get in touch with one of our brokers to have a discussion about what your looking for and your overall situation. During this discussion, we can establish what options will best suit your needs, that will fit within your budget and are worth investing the time in test driving. This streamlines the whole car buying process and saves you spending hours at countless dealerships. Once you have decided on the right car or if you had already prior to contacting us, we will then locate the lowest price from multiple dealerships nationwide. Within 24 hours you will be contacted with an obligation free quote for the vehicle you have requested along with an estimated lead time. In most cases this will be significantly lower than the dealers best price.

  At this point you may place an order with Tasman New Cars who will then secure your new vehicle. Payment for the vehicle is only to be paid for on the day of delivery with the successful dealer.

  All new vehicle orders will be brand new and will be registered into your name as the first owner. If you have a trade in or require finance for your new car, Tasman New Cars will look after you with these services.

  The only difference between buying your vehicle from Tasman New Cars and buying direct through the dealer is the stand out customer experience and most importantly the price. The vehicle will come with the full advertised manufactures warranty.
