The car is in its original paint condition, owned by the original owner, with 44,000 kilometers on the odometer. Exterior: Paint is well-maintained, body structure has not been repaired, and there have been no major accidents. Interior: Clean and tidy. Safety indicator lights are normal, airbags and other passive safety features are functioning properly, and all electronic components are in good working order. Driving: Ignition, starting, acceleration, cornering, deceleration, and braking are all smooth and efficient. Acceleration is rapid, power output is smooth and comfortable, and there is no idling vibration. Overall: Overall condition is average. The body frame structure is not deformed or twisted, and there are no signs of fire or water damage. There are signs of repainting, but the overall paint is in good condition, ruling out major accidents. It offers good visibility, making it a good choice for beginners. The spacious, bright, and well-ventilated interior is suitable for family use.
Complete records represent underlying trust and zero odometer adjustment risk. In the used car market, solid data history itself carries a high premium. The extra few hundred dollars buys you an impeccable endorsement when selling overseas.
We use quantitative standards. Minor scratches less than 3 cm that do not reach the base coat (which can be polished) are considered normal wear; scratches over 3 cm deep to the base coat or dents larger than 2 cm in diameter will be highlighted in the inspection report's "Appearance Defect Distribution Map" with close-up photos.
Used cars are classified under HS heading 8703 (motor vehicles for transport of persons), with the last four digits determined by engine type and size. Gasoline cars usually fall in 8703.21–8703.80 depending on displacement; pure EVs fall under 8703.80; hybrids have their own subheadings. The duty amount depends on your country's tariff schedule: 1. Most countries charge duty on the CIF value (car price + freight + insurance), not the FOB price. 2. Many developing markets levy higher duties on used vehicles than new ones, and some add a surcharge based on age — older cars can cost significantly more to clear. 3. After duty, you typically pay VAT/GST on the CIF + duty total, plus port and customs fees. Practical tips: ask your exporter to state the exact HS code on the commercial invoice and confirm it with a local customs broker before shipping. A wrong code can trigger reclassification, penalties, or delays. Also budget for any excise tax tied to engine capacity — in several markets a 2.5L car clears far cheaper than a 3.5L one.
