Why So Many Wellington Cars Have No WOF

Wellington's hilly terrain accelerates brake and tyre wear — WOF failure rates in Wellington are above the NZ average. When repair costs exceed vehicle value, owners choose to sell. WOF status has zero impact on our offer price.

Wellington-Specific WOF Failure Points

  • Brake wear — accelerated by Wellington's hilly streets
  • Tyre wear — steep driveways and hill starts
  • Rust from Cook Strait salt spray
  • Suspension wear from Wellington's undulating roads
