Terms & Conditions

Company Name: 360 Pro Group Limited (Trading as 360 Pro Auto)

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern the process by which 360 Pro Group Limited (“we,” “us,” or “our”) purchases scrap vehicles from individuals or entities (“you” or “seller”) within New Zealand. By offering your vehicle for sale to us, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Introduction

360 Pro Group Limited specialises in the responsible and efficient purchase and recycling of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs), also known as scrap cars, in New Zealand. Our aim is to provide a transparent and hassle-free service for sellers, ensuring compliance with relevant New Zealand regulations.

2. Definitions

  • Vehicle/Car: Refers to the motor vehicle, regardless of its condition, that you are offering for sale to 360 Pro Group Limited.
  • Scrap Car: A vehicle that is no longer roadworthy, has reached the end of its useful life, is damaged beyond economical repair, or is intended solely for dismantling and recycling.
  • Quotation: The price offered by 360 Pro Group Limited for your vehicle, based on the information you provide.
  • Collection: The process of us picking up the vehicle from your specified location in New Zealand.
  • Payment: The agreed-upon sum transferred to you by us for the purchase of your vehicle.
  • NZTA: Refers to the New Zealand Transport Agency (Waka Kotahi), the government agency responsible for vehicle registration and licensing in New Zealand.

3. Eligibility

To sell a vehicle to 360 Pro Group Limited, you must:

  • Be the legal registered owner of the vehicle or have the express legal authority to sell it.
  • Be at least 18 years of age.
  • Be able to provide all necessary documentation as outlined in these Terms, including proof of ownership and identity.
  • Ensure the vehicle is located at the agreed-upon collection address within New Zealand.

4. Quotation and Acceptance

4.1. Quotation Process: You will provide us with accurate details about your vehicle, including but not limited to, its make, model, year, registration number, current condition (e.g., whether it’s de-registered, has a current WOF/registration, or is damaged), and its exact location. Based on this information, we will provide you with a non-binding quotation.

4.2. Quotation Validity: Quotations are valid for a specified period (e.g., 24-48 hours) or until the market price of scrap metal significantly changes, whichever comes first. We reserve the right to withdraw or amend a quotation at any time if the information provided by you is inaccurate or incomplete, or if there is a significant change in market conditions (e.g., fluctuations in global metal prices).

4.3. Acceptance: Your acceptance of our quotation constitutes an offer to sell your vehicle to us under these Terms. A binding contract is formed only when we confirm acceptance of your offer, typically upon physical inspection of the vehicle and verification of all required documentation at the time of collection.

5. Vehicle Condition and Description

5.1. Accurate Description: You warrant that all information provided to us regarding the vehicle’s condition, history, and any damage is accurate, complete, and not misleading. This includes disclosing any missing major components (e.g., engine, transmission, catalytic converter), significant structural damage, or non-standard modifications. Your obligations under the Fair Trading Act 1986 apply to the information you provide.

5.2. Inspection: We reserve the right to inspect the vehicle upon collection. If, upon inspection, the vehicle’s condition or description differs significantly from the information you provided (e.g., major parts are missing, or damage is more extensive than disclosed), we reserve the right to adjust the quotation or decline the purchase. If we decline the purchase, no payment will be made, and it will be your sole responsibility to arrange for the vehicle’s removal from the collection site.

5.3. Accessibility: You must ensure the vehicle is accessible for safe and efficient collection at the agreed time and location. This means the vehicle should be on solid ground, free from obstructions, and accessible by our recovery vehicle. Any delays or additional costs incurred due to inaccessible vehicles may be passed on to you or result in a revised quotation.

6. Ownership and Documentation

6.1. Proof of Ownership: You must provide satisfactory proof of ownership for the vehicle. This typically includes the vehicle’s Certificate of Registration (or other official NZTA documentation confirming your ownership), a valid form of personal identification (e.g., New Zealand driver’s license or passport), and any other documents we may reasonably request to verify your legal right to sell the vehicle.

6.2. Encumbrances: You warrant that the vehicle is free from any liens, charges, security interests (e.g., PPSR registrations), or third-party claims. You agree to indemnify 360 Pro Group Limited against any losses, damages, or expenses incurred as a result of any breach of this warranty, including any claims by third parties regarding ownership or financial encumbrances on the vehicle.

6.3. Transfer of Ownership: Upon successful collection and payment, you agree to complete all necessary paperwork to legally transfer ownership of the vehicle to 360 Pro Group Limited. This includes signing any required transfer forms (e.g., MR13B change of ownership form) and promptly notifying NZTA of the change of ownership. You acknowledge that failure to notify NZTA promptly may result in ongoing liabilities for you.

7. Collection and Payment

7.1. Collection Schedule: We will arrange a mutually agreeable date and time for the collection of your vehicle. While we endeavour to adhere to schedules, unforeseen circumstances (e.g., traffic, breakdowns, adverse weather) may cause delays, for which we will not be liable. We will keep you informed of any significant delays.

7.2. Preparation for Collection: Before collection, you must remove all personal belongings, rubbish, and any hazardous materials (e.g., excessive fuel, chemicals) from the vehicle. We will not be responsible for any items left inside the vehicle after it has been collected.

7.3. Payment Method: Payment will typically be made via secure bank transfer (Electronic Funds Transfer – EFT) or, by prior arrangement, in cash, usually upon successful collection and verification of the vehicle and documentation. Please note that for security and record-keeping reasons, bank transfer is generally preferred.

7.4. No Liability for Delays: We shall not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by you as a result of any delay in collection or payment, provided such delay is not due to our gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

8. Cancellation

8.1. By You: You may cancel your offer to sell the vehicle at any time before collection. However, if we have incurred direct costs (e.g., dispatching a tow truck or arranging specific transport) due to your cancellation without reasonable prior notice, we reserve the right to seek reimbursement for such direct costs.

8.2. By Us: We reserve the right to cancel the purchase at any time, including upon inspection, if the vehicle’s condition or documentation does not meet our requirements, if there are any material discrepancies in the information provided, or if we identify any undisclosed encumbrances. In such cases, no payment will be made, and we will not be liable for any costs incurred by you.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless 360 Pro Group Limited, its directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with:

  • Your breach of these Terms.
  • Any inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading information provided by you regarding the vehicle.
  • Any third-party claims related to the vehicle’s ownership, condition, or any outstanding liabilities (e.g., unpaid fines, tolls, or finance) prior to our legal collection and transfer of ownership.

10. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Zealand. You agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand for the resolution of any such disputes.
