Fresh Start Cars

The short version

About the dealership

Fresh Start Cars operates from Unit 14/17 Rivergate Place, Murarrie QLD 4172. The business sells used vehicles and also brokes finance, saying it searches "over 40 leading lenders" with "150+ expert brokers across Australia guiding you from application to settlement". It positions itself around buyers whose credit history has closed off ordinary lending, describing its approach as "No pressure. No judgement. No false promises." Alongside outright sale it offers rent-to-own, subscription and a credit reboot programme.

Why a buyer might visit

• Vehicle sales and finance broking handled by the same business, rather than sending buyers elsewhere for a loan
• A lender panel of more than 40, including lenders that work with impaired credit histories
• Rent-to-own and subscription routes available for buyers who cannot get finance yet
• Credit reboot programme aimed at moving buyers back towards mainstream lending
• Stock is weighted towards used SUVs, with hatchbacks and the occasional prestige vehicle

Who may want to visit

• Buyers declined by mainstream lenders
• Self-employed buyers
• Buyers rebuilding a credit file
• First-car buyers
• Families wanting a used SUV

Worth knowing before you go

The yard is small and heavily weighted towards a few repeated models, with a run of Volkswagen Tiguans making up a large share of listed stock alongside MG, Chery, Mahindra and a couple of Porsche Cayennes. Listed drive-away pricing has run from about $13,990 to $64,990, and several newer arrivals are shown as enquire for price. Rent-to-own and subscription are not the same as buying: they carry different costs and different ownership outcomes, so ask for the total figure and whether the vehicle ends up in your name before signing. The website does not set out warranty, trade-in or delivery arrangements.
