Significantly, these evaluations are available free of charge to motorists, it said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We envisage that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trueprice.co.za\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">True Price<\/a> will be used by millions of South African motorists. Dealers and auctioneers will find True Price to be an invaluable resource too,&#8221; said the website&#8217;s owner, Darryl Jacobson.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re constantly adding to what is already a massive database of prices attained on auction,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have made it as simple to use as possible,&#8221; Jacobson said of the site. &#8220;He said users need simply submit an enquiry online and within 24 hours, &#8220;we will give them the real value of their car.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He believes that the sales prices achieved on auction are a true indication of what a car is worth. &#8220;Nowhere else can you get such a realistic valuation &#8211; because these are actual recorded sales. I do not believe that any other database is as meaningful as ours,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/motoring\/178601\/find-out-how-much-your-car-is-worth-on-sa-startup-carzar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find out how much your car is worth on SA startup CarZar<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>True Price has officially launched on Friday, &#8220;offering motorists a precise and realistic evaluation of the value of their vehicle&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":248869,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11119],"tags":[26,13127],"class_list":["post-248859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-motoring","tag-headline","tag-true-price"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=248859"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248859\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":248871,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248859\/revisions\/248871"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/248869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=248859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=248859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=248859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
