02How importing works

Six steps from auction hall to Cyprus plates.

You decide the budget and approve the bid. We coordinate the purchase, export and paperwork, and keep you informed at each stage.

Two numbers, kept apart

Maximum auction bid: The most we may bid for the car at auction in Japan, in yen. You approve it; we never exceed it.
Total turnkey budget: The euro amount you plan to spend in all — the car plus import costs, our service, registration and plates.
