Due to plans to refurbish & rebrand our Essendon Fields site, blinkr pre-owned cars will be ceasing its retail operations on 31 January, 2026. 
It will remain as a facility to process vehicles to the high quality you have come to expect, which will be available through a network of pre-owned vehicle dealers, such as Melbourne City Toyota. 

Not only do we carefully select the cars we purchase and make available for sale, but we pride ourselves on the quality procedures we have employed to prepare and recondition all blinkr cars. 

We also want to ensure all our customers have a stress free experience and peace of mind when they drive away in their blinkr car. In addition to 3 months Statutory Warranty, every blinkr car comes with 12 months roadside assist, to ensure you are protected.
