How to sell a used Tesla in Australia

A used Tesla in Australia still sells like a specialist car, not a Camry. Buyers want the VIN, the battery screenshot, and a clean PPSR. They do not want a 3% dealer intro.

What buyers open first

Year, variant, and kilometres in the headline.
A side-on photo in daylight, not a carpark flash.
Service history in the Tesla app, not a PDF of adjectives.
Whether the car is heat-pump (2021 Model 3/Y onward for most Australian stock).

Paperwork that actually matters

PPSR certificate dated the week you list. Tesla finance balloons still show up.
Registration in your name in the same state as the listing city.
Transfer: each state has its own EV discount or stamp duty rule. Do not quote NSW numbers to a Queensland buyer.
VIN last six in the listing. Full VIN in the message thread after they ask.

Why the listing fee is $400

usedtesla.au charges $400 AUD through Stripe to publish for 60 days. There is no extra cut when the car sells. If a dealer takes 3% of a $50,000 Model 3, that is $1,500. The classified fee is the smaller, known number.

Photos that do not waste a scroll

Shoot north-facing shade. Include the charge port, the front boot, the rear seats, the odometer in kilometres, and the tyre date codes. Do not watermark. Do not use Tesla marketing stills — they are not your car.

Price

Look at live Model 3 and Model Y listings in your city first, then shade for kilometres and wheels. Uberturbines need a discount versus Aero. PPF and a tow bar are worth naming; they are not automatically worth $4,000.
