OUR STORY

Family-owned. Locally trusted. Proudly Australian.

Who We Are

BUILT ON TRUST,
DRIVEN BY PASSION

Aussie Car Deals was founded in 2005 by Dave Thornton with a simple mission: to make buying a used car an honest, stress-free experience. No pushy salespeople, no hidden fees, no dodgy cars.

We're a family-owned business based in Brisbane, and we treat every customer like family. Whether you're buying your first car or your tenth, we'll take the time to find the right vehicle for your needs and budget.

Every car we sell has been personally inspected, priced fairly, and comes with a 12-month statutory warranty. We stand behind every vehicle we sell.
