• Is it worth buying a car from abroad?
  Expanding the car search area improves the possibility to find the car that perfectly matches your needs - a specific model, desired equipment, color, and other features. Cars from abroad usually have a reliable and detailed car usage history including its mileage, accidents, service, and other important specifics.

It happens though, that the reaction of the car dealer or the car evaluation takes longer than expected. It may take up to 2-4 days to receive all the information. If you decide that the car suits well for you we book it, and if not – we work finding the best car further. In the best-case scenario, if the seller is quick to respond and the car meets all the requirements, the car will be delivered in approximately 10 days. Our record is 5 days from the first contact until the car delivery to Lithuania.
• How the car evaluation process is being performed before delivering it to Lithuania?
  After choosing a reliable dealer, our purchase manager does the online check-up using digital tools. If possible, we will also contact the nearest representative for a personal inspection of the chosen car. When the car arrives in Lithuania, we take full responsibility for evaluating its condition (mileage, technical features, crash, cabin condition, etc.) and if discrepancies are found upon delivery, you will not be obliged to purchase the car.
• How do you know that the condition of the car including mileage and crash history is not fake?
  We only work with reliable and verified partners. If there are any doubts about the transparency of the partners' activities, we will not conclude contracts with them. Also in Western Europe, forgery of car documents or mileage is a serious offense and offenders run the risk of being prosecuted. Finally, we partner with CarVertical, one of the leading providers of automotive history reports. Thanks to them, we can provide you with a detailed report on the history of the car.
