The RACQ Car Buying Service is being offered in partnership with Eagers Automotive whose consultants will provide expert advice on the best vehicle options and new technologies, including electric vehicles (EVs).

RACQ General Manager Member Loyalty and Benefits Karen Wynn said the free, no-obligation service would do all the legwork for members to make the car-buying process as easy and uncomplicated as possible.

“Not everyone has a friend or mate they can speak with about cars and our members have told us these big purchases often come with lots of research, dealer visits, administration and stress negotiating prices and terms,” Karen said.

“With this new member benefit, RACQ is providing the confidence members need when purchasing their next car.

“Eagers will do everything in the car-buying process from helping you choose the most suitable vehicle to arranging test drives and trade-ins if required.

“They will also coordinate contracts of sale and ensure a smooth handover of your car.”

RACQ will share part of its commission or similar payment with members who buy a car with the service in the form of a $100 credit to use on purchases made through the RACQ Member Benefits platform.

“This service is aimed at members who want a more convenient way to purchase their next car while getting access to the right advice before making a decision,” Karen said.

“RACQ, through its Member Benefits like the Car Buying Service, is committed to helping make life easier and more affordable for our members.

“By using the Car Buying Service we hope members will feel more at ease with what is a big purchase decision at a time when we are all affected by cost-of-living pressures and time constraints.”

The RACQ Car Buying Service is only available for the purchase of new commercial and passenger vehicles and does not extend to boats, caravans, trailers or motorcycles.
