Buy Your Next Used Car with Total Peace of Mind — The Cubbi Quality Promise
MOTORING NEWS & INFORMATION
Buying a pre-owned vehicle in South Africa can feel like walking through a minefield of hidden accidents, odometer rollbacks and missing paperwork. At Cubbi Cars we've removed the guesswork. Every vehicle on our floor is independently inspected, professionally reconditioned and delivered with full documentation so you can drive away with confidence, not crossed fingers.
Why "Voetstoots" Buying Is Risky
- Undisclosed accident repairs can weaken a car's structural integrity.
- Mechanical surprises often surface only after the warranty is long gone.
- Clocked odometers inflate resale prices.
- Missing or forged paperwork complicates transfers and insurance claims.
One nasty surprise can turn your bargain into a budget-breaker.
The Cubbi Quality Promise - What We Do and Why It Matters
1. Independent DEKRA Inspection
Every car undergoes a comprehensive DEKRA Condition Report - a 125-point examination that covers body integrity, chassis alignment, engine health, electronics, tyres, brakes and more. You receive the full digital report, complete with photographs.
You see the car exactly as our experts do. No secrets, no surprises.
2. Professional Reconditioning
Where DEKRA flags wear or minor defects, our workshop restores the vehicle to peak condition - from mechanical repairs to interior detailing.
You start your ownership cycle at "like-new" baseline, extending longevity and resale value.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the DEKRA Condition Report cover?
It's a 125-point inspection that verifies structural integrity, mechanical health, mileage accuracy, electronic functions, tyres and brake performance. You can view the full PDF report before on all our vehicles online.
Can I trade in a car that's still under finance?
Yes. We request a settlement letter from your bank, pay the balance directly to them, and credit any surplus toward your purchase. If you're in negative equity, we can roll the shortfall into your new loan or discuss alternative solutions.
Do you organise vehicle finance?
Absolutely. We work with leading finance institutions to secure competitive rates, often within the same day.
Where can I test-drive a Cubbi car?
Book online or call your nearest Cubbi branch in Woodmead, Menlyn or Cape Town. Test-drive slots fill up fast on weekends, so we recommend booking 24 hours in advance.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes we do deliver throughout South Africa. Fees vary by distance; ask your sales consultant for a quote.
