Car from USA in the Czech Republic

WHAT ARE THE DELIVERY GUARANTEES?

Columb Trade guarantees the fulfillment of its obligations when signing an agreement on the provision of consulting services for the purchase of a car from the United States. The document spells out the rights and obligations of the parties, and in addition, contains all the customer preference data - from the features of the car to the price range.

DO YOU HAVE PEOPLE IN THE USA WHO CHECK VEHICLES?

We can send an employee to check the vehicle at the place of purchase.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET REGISTERED CAR ON A TURNKEY BASIS?

Yes, we provide a turnkey car service, where you can pick up a fully cleared and registered car. We provide high-quality and comprehensive support at all stages: customs clearance, transporting the car from the port, search for spare parts, repairs, certification, registration, etc. This is the most convenient option that is extremely time saving.

WILL I ACTUALLY GET THE CAR I CHOSE?

Before purchasing, each car undergoes a comprehensive, multi-stage inspection by the company professionals in order to avoid any potential issues. At Columb Trade, we value our name and reputation that is wll known in many countries.

WILL I HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH SPARE PARTS, REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE?

Columb Trade offers turnkey restoration services for cars from the US at partner service stations. We work with strict adherence to the highest standards and deadlines.

CAN YOU PROVIDE THE EXACT DELIVERY TIME?

The average delivery time starts from 25 days. But taking into account the preparation work for shipping the cargo (from the moment of purchasing a car at an auction in the US or Canada until its delivery to a European port), it can take about 6-8 weeks. Delivery time also depends on the ship’s port of departure. For example, cargo is delivered faster from the east coast of the United States than from the west. The delivery time may be partly affected by the current geo political situation.

WHAT BUDGET MAKES IT LUCRATIVE TO BRING A CAR FROM AMERICA?

Even if the cost of the purchased car is low, it is profitable to transport it from the USA. For example, if you plan to spend $6,500 on a car, the savings will be about 30%. At the same time, as a rule, you will get a car with better equipment than those offered on the local market. You can buy a 2016 Ford Focus on a turnkey basis for the money!

WHY IS IT SO CHEAP?

The fact is that we usually buy cars at insurance auctions in the USA and Canada. Insurance has already been paid for the vehicle, but at the same time, the residual price for many cars has not been established. In a market oversaturated with supply, price is regulated by demand, and due to this, you can buy a 2017-18 car for $1,000.
