Australian Import Information

Purchasing an import out of Australia that has been deemed a 'Statutory Write Off' is well worth considering, as they truly represent value for your money.
These 'Statutory Write Off 'vehicles are mainly imported from New South Wales where they have been determined "a write off" for minor things like hail damage, light impact damage, malicious damage etc unlike anywhere else in the world that we know of. In most cases had the incident occurred in NZ or another part of Australia, it would have been repaired and given back the respective owners without any recording as a statutory write off.
Buying these vehicles well below the equivalent NZ new price, makes this a worthwhile and smart choice. In essence for the same amount of money purchasing an Australian Import through Market Cars, provides a much better deal giving the end user a late model vehicle for an affordable price. In most cases specifications are the same if not better.
Safety
When these vehicles arrive into NZ a certified engineer is commissioned to oversee the whole process of repair ensuring NZ safety standards are met.
The procedures followed to ensure the vehicles are 100% safe are extremely stringent and uses advanced technology including 3D measurements, computer diagnostic SRS/ABS declarations, and ICAR global manufacturer specified repair processes.
Our importers tend to purchase wisely avoiding any heavily impacted vehicles, water damaged vehicles or anything they deem to be a safety risk as the more minor the repair the quicker the car can come to market.
Resale
When it comes to selling your import unfortunately the Franchise Dealers in NZ are quite negative towards these vehicles, often unfairly demonising them, especially when it comes to trading these cars. However many wholesalers in the grand scheme of things have no issues with imports recognise the true value, are not blinded by the Franchises corporate tactics, and are comfortable to buy a good car at a good price.
Market Cars stands by its vehicles and is happy to re-sell your car on your behalf when it comes time to upgrade or purchase a new car should you have an issues.
After selling these imports for almost 10 years, we have many many satisfied customers who have now asked us to find them newer models, or introduced family friends and colleagues to purchasing these great cars.
