From application to delivered vehicle

Five steps. You pay a fee only when a transaction actually comes about — the subscription covers your access and your twice-weekly selection.

1

Admission

You complete your trading profile: categories, makes, destination market and annual volume. We assess purchasing intent and trading history.

2 working days
2

Your selection

Twice a week an email with what matches your profile. No suitable supply, no email. You adjust the profile yourself as soon as your requirements change.

ongoing
3

Reserving

You reserve a unit. We hold it for you for 72 hours and send an inspection report with photographs, mileage and documents.

72 hours to decide
4

Payment via a client account

Your payment goes to a client account, not to the supplier. The money is released only when the documents and the vehicle are in order.

3–5 working days

Transport and papers

Road transport to the port, export documents, inspection and shipping. Costs are known in advance, not afterwards.

4–8 weeks to destination

excluding import duties in the country of destination

Import duties differ greatly by country and fall outside our quotation. We do state the applicable rate in advance, so you can calculate the landed cost before you reserve.

What we assess

Criterion 1

Purchasing intent

Are you buying for trade, for your own fleet, or still orientating yourself?

Criterion 2

Volume

How many units per year? One is enough, but we want to know where you stand.

Criterion 3

Destination market

Where is the equipment going? That determines steering side, emission standard and papers.

Criterion 4

Suitability

Does what you seek match what our network supplies? If not, we say so at once.
