Natural Auto 7 Easy Steps

Now it is time for the 7 Easy Steps to Importing used Japanese Vehicles through Natural Auto.

You contact our company with a request for a specific car you are looking for. The more detail you give, the better the results we will find. Please try to include: Brand, Model and Year. If you have any other requests such as Color, Km, Engine Capacity (CC) or any additions, please include them also. You can also go to our auctions page and using an ID, find a certain vehicle you like without our help.

We run a search on the vehicle for you. We find out as much information and details as possible, in addition we get pictures and the auction sheet for you. (Only we can find specific information such as Chassis Number, Damages, etc. for you.) We then calculate a price and send you our results.

Once you have decided whether you want the vehicle or not, you then send us your Name, Address, Phone Number and Fax Number. We will create a document called the Pro Forma Invoice. The invoice will include your information, the vehicle information; the total estimated price, our bank details, etc. You then sign the invoice, and send it back to us.

At this time, a certain amount of money must be sent directly to our bank through T.T. (Telegraphic Transfer). The amount of money is decided by:
?? If the car costs less than 100,000 yen or $1,000 US Dollars, you must send 100% of the CIF cost. If the car costs 100,000 - 500,000 yen ($1,000 - $5,000 USD), you must send 100,000 yen or $1,000 USD If the car costs 500,000 - 1,000,000 yen ($5,000 - $10,000 USD), you must send 200,000 yen or $2,000 USD If the car costs over 1,000,000 yen or $10,000 US Dollars, you must send 100% of the total CIF cost.

We confirm the money has reached our bank, and we then go off to bid on your vehicle. If we lose the bid on the vehicle, we will refund 100% of your money back to you. If the vehicle is won, we then bring the vehicle back to our company and our mechanics will inspect it. Should any problems be found, we will inform you immediately. In addition, we will also do our best to remove any dents or minor things that were on the auction sheet. You can also request certain additions and will let you know if it is possible.

You have 2 days after the auction is successful to pay the remainder of your balance. If the vehicle is an auction vehicle, and you fail to pay us after 2 days, the car will be returned. The fee for returning the vehicle along with other charges, will come out of your deposit, usually around 50,000 - 70,000 yen. We will then send you the remainder of the deposit.

Once your vehicle has been paid off, we will send it out on the next ship available. As the vehicle is on the way, we will send the papers to you by courier. In a few weeks, the car will arrive at your port and will be ready for you to show off your new Imported Japanese Vehicle to your friends. Enjoy the new ride.
