Thinking About Pawning Your Car?

There's a Smarter Way.

Get instant cash for your vehicle — no credit checks, no hidden fees — and keep driving it every day. DriveAwaySA is the safe, legal alternative to risky pawn brokers.

Pawning Your Car Is Never Worth the Risk

Every year, thousands of South Africans lose their vehicles to predatory pawn brokers. Here’s why you should think twice.

Sky-High Interest Rates

Pawn brokers charge excessive interest that compounds fast. What starts as a short-term loan becomes a financial trap you can’t escape.

Risk of Repossession

Miss one payment and your car is gone — no warnings, no second chances. You lose your vehicle and every cent you’ve paid.

Predatory Practices

Unregulated operators deliberately target people in desperate situations, locking them into unfair agreements with hidden clauses.

CHECKLIST

What To Watch Out For

If you’re considering any car finance option, make sure you tick every box before committing. DriveAwaySA passes them all.

1. Do Your Research First

Don’t rush into any deal. Compare options, read the fine print, and understand exactly what you’re signing up for.

Legitimate businesses have a physical address, landline, and respond to queries. If you can’t reach them, walk away.

How long have they been operating? Are they registered? A traceable track record is your first line of defence.

Look for verified Google and Facebook reviews. Real customer experiences reveal the truth that marketing hides.

Every legitimate transaction comes with clear, signed documentation. No paperwork means no protection for you.

    For a maximum of 12 consecutive months. The lease is month to month, and you are not tied into any minimum or lock-in period.

    At the end of each month, you can either exercise your option to buy the vehicle back at the SAME amount it was purchased for or lease the vehicle for another month.

    You will be provided with the option to purchase the vehicle upon termination of your lease for the same cash flow amount you received.

    A R2,000 administration fee will be added to that amount.

    The price for you to purchase the vehicle will be clearly indicated on the contract.

    NO SURPRISES!.

    Upon receiving your submission we approach our network of buyers and provide you with an indication of the best offer (based on the current market trade value of your vehicle).

    A final offer is made once the vehicle has been inspected and the roadworthy condition has been assessed.

    There is an origination fee of R5,750.

    VERY! And it’s completely up to you!

    After providing us with your vehicle details by completing the form on our website or via WhatsApp©, within 1-2 hours we will provide you with an indication of the transaction figures.

    If you decide to proceed, we will request that you provide us with some documents and vehicle pictures and typically, within 24-48 hours from the time you submit the required documentation, the transaction can be completed.

    The final cashflow contribution amount will be transferred to you as an immediate payment as soon as the transaction is completed.

    1. You must own the vehicle and the vehicle must be fully paid off (the vehicle cannot be under finance, in other words, you cannot owe any money to a bank or anyone else on the vehicle).
    2. The vehicle license must be current.
    3. The vehicle cannot be more than 9 years old nor can it have more than 175 000 km on the odometer.
    4. The market trade price of your vehicle must be at least R120 000 at the time of your submission.
    5. The vehicle must pass a roadworthy test.
    6. You will need to present the vehicle to us for final inspection in order to complete the transaction.
