The Stadium Cars story

We Buy Cars inherits the core values of Stadium Cars – quality, honesty, and a customer-centric approach. Founded in 2008 by a passionate car industry veteran, Stadium Cars had a clear vision – to provide a better car buying experience for drivers in Canterbury. Guided by their motto, “Home of the Good Sports,” the Stadium Cars team has always prioritised building trust and transparency throughout the car buying journey.

While the iconic Lancaster Park, Stadium Cars’ former neighbour, may no longer be there, Stadium Cars remains a fixture on the corner of Moorhouse Ave and Lancaster Street in the heart of Christchurch. You might even recognise some of the same friendly faces you remember from years ago, still dedicated to providing that same good sports service.

Turning frustration into a fair deal

The birth of We Buy Cars

We Buy Cars was born from a simple observation: selling a car can be a real headache. We’ve all heard the stories – feeling undervalued during trade-ins, enduring high-pressure sales tactics, or facing the time-consuming hassle of private sales.

At We Buy Cars, we understand the frustration. We’ve heard countless tales of tyre kickers who waste your time, scammers trying to exploit honest sellers, and the never-ending cycle of calls, texts, and low-ball offers that come with private sales. That’s why we created a better way!

Our team is passionate about making car selling a positive experience. We’ll treat you with respect, provide clear and honest communication throughout the process, and there’s never any pressure to sell.
