Don't go to car yards go online – A mate of mine suggested looking at Online Auto and l have to admit l was somewhat nervous given previous dealings with car salesmen, that apprehension dissolved with my first contact from Seamus, this young man shares a wealth of knowledge relating to the new car market. He is honest about the pros and cons and gave me information that saved me… Read more ·  1

money by knowing l did not have to buy at the top of range but still got what l was looking for and l was astounded by how much Seamus was able to save me on advertised pricing, and all that despite me changing my mind about colour when everything had been organised, l was worried about causing more work but for Seamus it was all about what l wanted not how much work it caused for him. Seamus is a perfect example of someone who communicates to suit the customers needs not what is easiest for him, he should be teaching his method to others. Overall, purchasing my new car has been stress and hassle free, highly recommended. Five stars plus.

I wasn’t going to rate one star but – I read good reviews about this company and want to give it a go. I inquired about Toyota Camry Hybrid and Daniel told me about waiting time of Toyota is very long. So he offered GWM Haval H6 Gt which later I found it by myself it is not hybrid model. Anyways, I never heard of GWM brand and I asked him to email me about the car on the phone. I… Read more

received email just link to manufacturer website . No greeting, No introduction, No explanation Just a manufacturer’s Website. After some research, I found out myself hybrid model is called H6 Hybrid Ultra. I reply to that just link email but no reply back after 2 days. I asked about my email to him. He seems has no idea which email. It’s alright we are all busy but I was politely asking what’s the best price he can get and he answered Chinese manufacturer’s are offering very low price at the moment so He can’t do anything about making the better price. However, I got offerers from dealer few thousands dollars less than listed price and I told him. What response do I get? He just hung up while I was saying thank you. What is the point of using car buying brokers? Getting a better price right? and I was willing to pay cash in full as loan interest rate is not attractive at the moment. The thing is I was not going to leave any reviews about this online business but Daniel was hung up on me when I was just saying I got better offer price from dealer can you do better. Obviously he didn’t call me back right after disconnection so it wasn’t disconnected by accident or something. I see many 5 stars reviews but now I can hardly believe they are all genuine reviews. Thank you

Simple Easy, Good Deal and Fast Delivery – Could not be happier with the whole process. I have waited till now (December 2022) to review as I am sure there must have been a catch - but nope -> none!! Back in June, I researched the car I wanted, including test drive at the local dealership (Subaru Outback). Filled out Form online -> and Craig from OnlineAuto.com.au contacted me with 15… Read more ·  1

mins to confirm my request. Within 24 hours Craig had sourced a dealership that could deliver the vehicle to my door, with my requested options, for cheaper than the dealership could offer (ie RRP). It was that simple - no sales pitches, no haggling with sales people etc Bonus - The car was promised by end of September, but was delivered at end of August! (...and end of September was quicker than dealership, that they could deliver by end of November). The car was transported by truck to my house, with registration in my name. I took the car for its one month first service/check - no issues - all legit and registered in Subaru's system. The car was not delivered with the requested cargo mat - but after a couple of months waiting (stock shortage), the part was sent from dealership with no hassles. I would do this again to buy a new car in the future.

Thank you to Shamus for getting me a great price on my new car. He was a wonderful help getting the best deal and getting the car delivered to me as part of the deal. This service is so helpful for anyone who doesn’t want to do the hard work of negotiating in person. I am very happy with the deal I got and will be recommending Online Auto to anyone thinking of buying a new car! Show reply

I ordered a Kia shortage from OnlineAutos,( Seamus Hilton ). It was a very positive interaction after my first inquiry in mid June, it was decided to wait until near the end of the month to try and get a better deal, which we did. I received a very good deal, a deal I probably couldn’t have gotten by my self. My very happy with process of using… Read more ·  1

OnlineAutos, and with working with Seamus.My experience was 5 STAR EXCELLENT. I would use them again in the future.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The process is simple and easy. Seamus was very knowledgeable and informative throughout the process. The outcome was positive and they negotiated a good price. Using this process was worthwhile. Show reply

This is the second time I have used this service but frankly the experience was less enjoyable than last time. We had selected the vehicle, model and accessories and emailed this to the contact. We were shortly advised of a price for a 2025 model available in the next 4 weeks or so. When checking that the price included all accessories, it did… Read more

not, so the contact went out again to seek an updated price.

By the time they had come back with an updated price, this vehicle was not available and the 2026 vehicle was not available until August at a slightly inflated price. We went ahead with the deal and almost as soon as the contract was signed with the dealer the expected delivery became November. All of this could have been avoided if accessories were included in the original quote.

Overall, I use these services to avoid the engaging with car salesmen and dealers. This time Online Auto provided a very similar experience.

Most Difficult Individuals to Interact With – I wish I could give them a negative rating. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. If you have strong negotiation skills, it's better to do your research and find a good deal—personally, I secured a much better offer than what Online Auto provided, so I'm pleased with my abilities. Moreover, they don't deal with premium brands like Mercedes, BMW,… Read more

Audi, or Lexus, making Online Auto irrelevant for anyone interested in those vehicles. There are other car buying specialists who perform much better than Online Auto. From my interactions with the Online Auto team, I found them to be arrogant and inflexible, and they don't listen to your requests. If they believe they are the top car buying experts in Australia, I wish them luck with that attitude.

Meh – I really wanted it to work out as I support John Codogan, but unfortunately the "Save thousands" wasn't thousands and I found the sales person not very helpful, I may as well of been in the dealership. When Enquiring about a car I was given "we only get $500 off these cars, not a lot of moving room." I said I cannot afford that spec at that price… Read more

as the ad said "save thousands " he said "best going the lower model end then"

So I thought okay I'll go elsewhere. I went to motorscout and got $2,500 off in the model spec I wanted and the few accessories I wanted! The sales people were incredibly helpful, patient and efficient.

Sorry Online Auto, you just didn't measure up.

I was contacted by Seamus Hilton from OnlineAuto via Auto Expert. Seamus is very professional and knowledgeable person and makes you feel at ease. Seamus contacted me in the morning and had located the new vehicle I specified by the afternoon with a dealership close to where I live. He answered all my queries, I then felt comfortable continuing… Read more ·  1

with the purchase. Seamus saved me a considerable amount of money compared to negotiating through a dealer myself. I would recommend Seamus and OnlineAuto to anyone who needs a new car.

Thanks again Seamus. You are a great bloke. Richard Worrad

I found using Online Auto helped to make buying a new car easier. I received lots of guidance from Seamus about choosing a car and the process involved. Seamus also helped with tips for selling my current car. Very much appreciated! Show reply

OnlineAuto.com.au have assisted me with four new vehicle purchases. Each time they have been very prompt, professional and courteous in sorting out a new car. I will be returning to them in future when we need our next vehicle and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to take the hassle out of purchasing a new car and getting a good deal :-) Show reply

We recently had dealings with Seamus from ONLINEAUTO.com.au for the purchase of a new car. We found him to be very efficient and knowledgeable. Very courteous and prompt in getting back to us when needed. He did a lot of work to secure the best possible price for us. We switched models, had we not then his effort and money saving deal we would have accepted it. I would recommend Seamus and this company to anyone who needs a new vehicle. Show reply

We had an excellent experience when dealing with Online Auto and Seamus. Seamus definitely saved us thousands off the price of a Mazda CX60, much more than we could have negotiated ourselves including the price of the car we wanted to trade in. Seamus always kept us informed during the process and was very quick to get back to us if we had a question. D & D Show reply

Our new car experience was made so seamless and comfortable because of Seamus. He found us the exact vehicle for the right price in record time We cannot speak highly enough of his efforts to make this transaction happen Show reply

Outstanding service. No hassle and Seamus was very prompt at attending to any queries we had. Couldn't recommend Online Auto highly enough. Very happy with the process and the deal they managed to negotiate on our behalf was great and hassle free. Thanks to Seamus and the team at Online Auto. Show reply

I have used online auto before and it was time to upgrade, I researched the cars I wanted and made contact, Seamus made contact and we started the process, then within a few days I changed my mind, did my due diligence and sort a different car. That was not an issue with Seamus and I am soon to have delivered a new car and saved money as well. Thanks again. Show reply

This is my second purchase through a broker and this latest experience with OnlineAuto was as seamless as the first. Why would you even entertain dealing with car dealers when this option is available to you- a no-brainer. After a serious accident and needing to acquire a replacement vehicle fast, Jay was there to provide fast, super efficient… Read more ·  1

Seamus Hilton has been very thorough throughout this process so far. He had kept me up to date on each stage. We are looking forward to receiving the car we specified ! Show reply

They got us a price for a Hyundai Venue, that even the dealer I was talking to couldn't match. Seamus made the whole process from start to finish easy, very straight forward and transparent, he answered all my queries. I would recommend using them. Show reply

Just purchased a new Kia Carnival through onlineauto. Smooth process. This is the second vehicle I have purchased through onlineauto. So happy with the service and pleased to recommend them as your first stop to buy a new car. Gerald Show reply

Couldn't have asked for better customer service from Seamus, what a top bloke, very friendly and helpful, saved me plenty of dollars and would highly recommend, wish I got the same service everywhere. Show reply

We have just used OnlineAuto and had an outstanding experience, thanks to Seamust and James their service was way above average and I recommend Online Auto to anyone looking for a car. Not only did they save me thousands on the new car purchase price but also achieved a high price for our old car then I would have got on a trade in. Show reply
