How it works

Imported honestly.

A dealer that publishes the auction sheet, the translation and its own inspection has nothing to hide when you turn up.

The process

Six steps, every one of them on the car page.

Redrive imports Japanese-market cars under the SEVS and 25-year schemes, complies them in Victoria and sells them registered, with a drive-away price.

  1. You tell us what you want, or pick from stock
    Make, grade you'd accept, budget. We watch USS, TAA and HAA auctions daily.
  2. We send the sheet before we bid
    Grade, markers, mileage, translated in full. You decide, we bid.
  3. Export and RoRo shipping
    Export certificate, deregistration, vessel and port on the car page. About four weeks to Melbourne.
  4. SEVS or 25-year compliance
    Import approval, quarantine, compliance plate. Every number published.
  5. Our inspection, on the page
    Nine categories, paint depth, tyres, brakes, what we fixed and what we didn't.
  6. Roadworthy, registered, drive-awayIn progress
    Three-day cooling-off in Victoria. Statutory warranty where it applies.
