About CarChive

CarChive is a South African car marketplace focused on trust and transparency. Buyers search cars for sale from dealers and private sellers by make, price and province, and every listing calculates the monthly repayment from the buyer's deposit, interest rate and term. A car encyclopedia provides specifications and history for every brand and model.

Private sellers can list their car for a single payment of R99, and users create an account to save searches and manage listings. Its LinkedIn description says the marketplace is built around trust and transparency for both buyers and sellers. CarChive is based in Paarl.
