About us
Neostar is a story about how to solve the problem of trust and change the traditional relationship between used car dealers, mechanics, and customers, without either of the parties involved getting the short end of the stick — at least not under our watch.
Buying and selling cars has become much more common today due to shifts in life circumstances and various other reasons, so we no longer buy a car only once or twice in a lifetime. Market research in Croatia showed that 81% of people had a problem selling or purchasing a used car. 68% believe people don’t tell the truth when they are selling a used car. 24% are afraid that they will be deceived, and only 49% bought a used car with a warranty.
Here at Neostar, there is a genuine love and passion for cars, which brought us together in the first place. We connect people who want to sell, buy or maintain a car without complications and risks. We help sellers establish a fair price for their vehicles and offer an elegant solution for bidding. On our platform, both cars and users get more!
How? We transparently display all of your photos with detailed car information, and by sympliy posting your vehicle on our platform, your car gets more visibility. Only with us, the future owner doesn't pay the ownership transfer fee, giving you an advantage in the market. As part of our NeoConcierge service, we handle the entire presentation, communication, vehicle inspection before delivery, and sales documentation preparation. By actively promoting your car through ads on search engines and social media, we take care of your promotion and increase your chances of selling. Additionally, no car leaves Neostar without an expert inspection, and only if it passes this check will receive Neostar Premium warranty for up to 12 months and a 15-day return option. This is just the beginning! We want to stay with our users throughout the entire lifecycle of their car, giving them access to fully transparent vehicle maintenance with competitive workshops and pre-known service prices.
