How Many Km Should An Import Gain During The Import Process?

[Anfanee]

Hi all,

Just wondering If anyone can advise on what they think is normal when it comes to importing a car In terms of additional kms added from auction to the car arriving at an importer?

[Ben C34]

Don't they normally lose heaps of ks?

[Anfanee]

Usually yes....

[Ben C34]

Are you worried they will drive it to the shops a few too many times?

[djvoodoo]

Law of averages i recon....

Say 8000km per year on 99 R34 = roughly 128000km by 2015. I'd say that's a more believable average than 60xxxkm.

P.S

Edwardo Lees

Edit... completely misread the question

Mine had about an extra 15m's on the clock from dereg to my front door

less than 10kms

[Anfanee]

That's what I would think Richard. Lets just say it was a little more than 10. Still investigating.

[Hadouken]

Spill the beans. How many k's did they drive?

Even 10km is heaps from loading on the boat to parking at the docks.

[Anfanee]

Nah don't want to give too many details yet, till I know whats happened. But it's significantly more than 10

[Ben C34]

Wind back gone wrong?

[Anfanee]

Thinking more along the lines of joyriding.

[Trex]

how many ant?

could have driven it to put fuel in?

[Anfanee]

Hundreds.

[GTR-N1]

Oh dear...

[Duncan]

generally about -100,000.

[Trex]

Hundreds.

Shit. Sorry to hear mate. Might be a good reason, if not give em hell.

[Anfanee]

Yeah still trying to find out details.

It's gained the KM BEFORE the compliance shop. It arrived with a heap more on it.

[Hadouken]

Maybe they thought it was going to Edward lees so they racked some k's up

[PranK]

Yeah still trying to find out details.

It's gained the KM BEFORE the compliance shop. It arrived with a heap more on it.

So, possible joyriding before it left?
