For dealers

Sourced to spec. Landed cost quoted before you bid.

Stock is the problem, not buyers. We find the cars in Japan, verify them, price them on Irish plates and run the paperwork, for a flat fee per car. You keep your normal margin and lose the admin.

What it costs

A flat fee per car, invoiced when a car is bought on your instruction.

Per car
€350
Nothing for the search.
Five or more a month
€249
Per car, for forecourts sourcing in volume.
Purchase money
Never ours
You pay the exporter and Revenue directly.

Full terms are on the pricing page and are marked draft until they have been reviewed.

Which cars make sense

Japanese-built hybrids and low-emission petrols, first.

Aqua, Prius, Fit hybrid, Note e-Power, Corolla hybrid: duty-free with a Statement on Origin, low VRT bands, small NOx levies. German-built cars re-exported from Japan (most Golfs, Polos and A3s) pay 10% duty and still work at the right price. Diesels without NOx evidence and high-CO2 MPVs rarely do; we will say so rather than source them. Model-by-model detail: Aqua, Prius, Fit.

Tell us what your forecourt needs

Models, years, mileage cap, minimum auction grade and the landed price per car that works for you. We reply with candidates and the evidence position on each.

Optional. Most dealer conversations happen on WhatsApp.

One or several. Trim or spec notes welcome.

km

Grade 4 and above is the usual safe zone.

All-in on Irish plates, before your margin.

A month is fine. Allow 8 to 14 weeks from purchase.

Nothing is bid on until you confirm a car and a maximum price.
