THE FINAL COUNTDOWN: ABSA’S LAST 8 NATIONAL BANK VEHICLE AUCTIONS OF 2025

And Why This Is the Best Time to Buy with Bank Finance

As 2025 draws to a close, ABSA is unleashing its final wave of genuine bank-repossessed vehicle auctions across South Africa  and for serious used-car buyers, this is where the real opportunities live.

These are not dealer forecourts.
These are direct-from-the-bank vehicles, passenger cars, bakkies, SUVs and commercial units; sold at true market-clearing prices.

Even better?
You can secure bank finance before you bid, putting you in a powerful position to buy with confidence.

December 2025 isn’t just the end of the year : it’s the grand finale of ABSA’s national auction calendar, ending with one massive, multi-province National Webcast Auction.

Let’s break down every remaining ABSA auction by date and region.

✅ Why Smart Buyers Pre-Approve Their Finance Before They Bid

Here’s the difference between casual bidders and serious buyers who win vehicles at bank auctions:

✔ You know exactly what you can afford
✔ You don’t panic bid
✔ You move faster than cash competitors
✔ You avoid deposit stress
✔ You secure better vehicles at better prices

With Auction Finance, your bank approval is handled before you raise your paddle.

🚦 Final Word: December Is Not for Hesitation

These are ABSA’s final auctions of 2025.
Once the National Auction on 11 December closes, that’s it for the year.

If you’re planning to:

• Replace your car

• Upgrade your bakkie

• Add a commercial unit

• Or secure a second vehicle for the family

December is your window.

Pre-approved finance is the advantage that separates buyers who watch… from buyers who drive.

ABSA Bank Vehicle Auction Returns to Boksburg – Over 200 Verified Vehicles Going Under the Hammer

As South Africa’s used-car market continues to evolve, one thing is clear — value is shifting back to where it all began: transparent, bank-verified auctions. And this November, buyers will have another chance to access genuine repossessed stock directly from the source at the ABSA Boksburg Repossessed Vehicle Online Auction, hosted by Tirhani Auctioneers.

When and Where

The auction opens Monday, 17 November 2025 at 11:00 and runs through to Tuesday, 18 November, with staggered lot closings from 11:00 (two lots per minute, plus one-minute auto-extend).
Buyers can view vehicles in person at the following Boksburg venues:

• 8 Top Road, Boksburg

• 13 Top Road, Boksburg

• 194 Main Road, Anderbolt, Boksburg

Viewing times:

• Monday: 08:00 – 16:00

• Tuesday: 08:00 – 10:00

Why Bank Auctions Are Back in Demand

In a market where used-car prices have surged over the past two years, more buyers are realising that bank-repossessed vehicles offer one of the few remaining paths to true market value. These cars come straight from ABSA’s portfolio — no middlemen, no inflated dealership mark-ups, and full disclosure on condition and documentation.

With demand for reliable, mid-segment hatchbacks and SUVs at a high, auctions like this are attracting everyone from small-business owners to first-time buyers looking to stretch their rand further. The chance to buy quality stock at transparent pricing has become the real “smart money” move.

Online, Efficient, and Transparent

The Tirhani online platform allows buyers to register, browse the catalogue, and bid remotely — giving them access to the same bank-verified vehicles without having to step into a showroom. Each vehicle is sold individually, and the bidding process is open, time-controlled, and traceable.

Finance Makes the Difference

If you’re planning to bid, make sure you’re pre-approved for auction finance before the sale starts. It means you can bid confidently — knowing your funding is ready to go the moment the hammer falls.

The Takeaway

You don’t need a “Black Friday sale” to find real automotive value. The real deals happen every week at South Africa’s major bank auctions — and this ABSA Boksburg event is one of the most anticipated of the season.

Stay tuned for the catalogue drop — it’s where the smart buyers will be looking first.

Massive G-Fleet Vehicle Auction: 430+ Units at Riley Auctions Africa, 17–18 Nov

 

Riley Auctions Africa Joins the Auction Finance Network — And Their Upcoming G-Fleet Sale Is One to Watch

There’s a quiet shift happening in South Africa’s used-vehicle market and it’s one that smart buyers, dealers, business owners, and private purchasers are paying close attention to. As traditional dealership prices continue to climb, more buyers are turning to reputable fleet, bank and government vehicle auctions to secure well-maintained, late-model vehicles at fair market value.

This is exactly where Riley Auctions Africa has carved out its reputation.

Now officially welcomed into the Auction Finance panel of trusted auctioneers nationwide, Riley Auctions Africa brings a refreshingly transparent and professionally-managed auction experience — matched with the type of vehicle stock that moves quickly in today’s market.

And the timing couldn't be better.

G-Fleet De-Fleet Timed Online Auction – Germiston

17 – 18 November 2025
Catalogue: https://www.riley.africa/live/index.php?sid=176

This upcoming sale is a standout for one simple reason: scale and choice.

With over 430 vehicles on offer, this isn’t a small clearance or mixed-bag liquidation. This is a structured, high-volume government fleet rotation, meaning buyers get access to vehicles that are:

• Properly maintained through scheduled service programs

• Driven in controlled fleet environments

• Typically lower in abuse, mileage, and undocumented history concerns

In short: These are the types of cars the public always wants, but rarely gets to buy directly.

---

A Fleet Filled With South Africa’s Most Wanted Vehicles

The catalogue reads like a list of South Africa’s top-selling and most reliable models. Expect to find:

Volkswagen Polo & Polo Vivo

Dozens of units ranging from 2016 to 2023.
South Africa’s best-selling passenger car — reliable, fuel-efficient, with unbeatable resale value.

Toyota Corolla / Quest / Starlet / Etios

Loved for low running costs, parts availability, and bulletproof reliability.
Ideal for everyday drivers, ride-share operators, and small businesses alike.

Nissan NP200

One of the most sought-after half-ton bakkies in the country.
Light on fuel, easy to maintain, and an absolute workhorse.

And that’s just the start.

---

Late-Model Cars — Without the New-Car Price Tag

What sets this auction apart is how recent much of the stock is.

There is a strong presence of 2021, 2022 and even 2023 registered vehicles — particularly:

• Toyota Starlet

• VW Polo

• Hyundai Grand i10

These are modern spec, modern safety, modern infotainment, just without the dealership premiums.

For many buyers, this is the opportunity to drive a nearly-new vehicle at a price point that would otherwise be out of reach.

---

Transparency You Can Actually Make Decisions With

Riley Auctions Africa uses a clear and honest condition reporting system that removes the guesswork:

• Starter / Non-Starter status

• Condition Grades: GOOD, FAIR, ACCIDENT DAMAGE

This matters.

Buyers know exactly whether they’re purchasing:

• A drive-away daily driver

• A repair-and-flip resale vehicle

• Or a mechanic’s project car

No surprises. No hidden narratives.

This level of transparency is one of the reasons we’re proud to have Riley Auctions Africa on our panel.

---

Opportunities for Every Buyer Profile

Buyer Type	Best Strategy
Daily Driver / Family Car Buyer	Look for GOOD, STARTER, 2020+ models with full condition grades.
Small Business Owner / Contractor	Target Nissan NP200, Toyota Hilux, Isuzu D-Max, and delivery-ready vans.
Dealers & Resellers	Watch the FAIR and NON-STARTER sections for strong margin potential.
Budget Buyers / Students	Explore older, lower reserve passenger cars for functional and affordable mobility.

This is an auction with real choice — not a gamble.

The Bottom Line

This G-Fleet De-Fleet auction is one of the strongest vehicle buying opportunities of the quarter.
Large volumes, late-model stock, transparent reporting, and now — accessible finance.

Riley Auctions Africa brings a level of professionalism and trust that aligns perfectly with what auction buyers need today.

For the smart buyer — this is the moment.

Your Next Car Could Be Here: MFC Bank Auction

South Africa’s used-car market has shifted. Consumers who once shopped for status are now shopping for sense. Rising interest rates, tighter household budgets, and the ongoing cost-of-living squeeze have reshaped buying behaviour. The focus today is on value: reliability, fuel efficiency, sensible mileage, and purchase prices that don’t demand financial gymnastics.

This is where the auction floor comes into its own. What was once viewed as a space for traders and industry insiders has now become a smart entry point for everyday buyers who want more car for their money. It is a place where real-world budgets meet real opportunity.

The MFC Bank Vehicle Auction – 5 November

MFC’s bank auction is appealing for one core reason: transparency. The stock is bank-owned, the condition reports are available, the process is standardised, and prices are determined live in the room by supply and demand. No inflated showroom premiums, no emotional retailer markup.

This auction features 137 vehicles, with the strongest availability in the segments where demand is highest. Hatchbacks make up the largest share of the lineup. These are practical, efficient vehicles that have become the sensible choice for many buyers. SUVs and station wagons continue to hold value for families who need space without stretching their budgets too far. Commercial vehicles, pickups and minibuses are well-represented too, supporting small business owners and fleet needs.

Importantly, it’s not only older high-mileage stock. Some standouts include:

2025 Toyota Quantum Sesfikile with under 16,000 km
2025 VW Polo 1.0 TSI R-Line DSG with just over 10,000 km
2024 Kia Sonet, Chery Tiggo 4 Pro, Hyundai i20 and other high-demand compact crossovers
2023 Ford Ranger V6 Wildtrak A/T, which continues to command strong retail demand
2023 Toyota Fortuner, Hyundai Tucson and other popular family SUVs

These are vehicles that, once they arrive on a dealer floor, often carry additional margin. The opportunity here is to secure the same models earlier in the cycle.

Why Finance Readiness Matters

Buyers who arrive at the auction with finance already approved have a clear advantage. Pre-approval removes hesitation, prevents emotional overspending, and allows you to move confidently when the bidding starts. The R5,000 registration deposit applies to all bidders, except those who have already secured pre-approval through Auction Finance.

In a market where desirable vehicles move quickly, speed and certainty are just as important as price.

If you are planning to attend, taking care of your finance beforehand places you in the strongest position to act decisively when the vehicle you want appears.
