Eligibility & Compliance Approvals

Verified on the Australian Government Rover register · 1 SEV · 2 MREs

This Mitsubishi Lancer CT9W is approved for import to Australia under SEVS approval SEV-000678, all granted on the Performance Criterion, supported by 2 Model Report Entries (MREs) MRE-000031 and MRE-000046 from accredited Australian Vehicle Verifiers including SYDNEY AVV PTY LTD. Approvals cover builds from Mar 2005 to Mar 2007.

Why qualified — Performance Criterion. Approvals granted under the SEVS Performance Criterion apply to vehicles that demonstrate a substantially superior performance specification — for example, power-to-weight, acceleration, or another measurable performance metric — compared with vehicles supplied to the Australian market in volume. Eligibility is build-specific: the exact build years, variants and model codes named on the approval are the binding reference.

How Carbarn runs this import. Carbarn sources 3/2005 to 3/2007 Mitsubishi Lancer examples through our Japanese partners, with build-sheet and auction-grade verification before any bid is placed. Once won, the vehicle is shipped via roll-on/roll-off freight, cleared through Australian customs, treated under biosecurity rules, and prepared for compliance at our Sydney workshop. The Approved Vehicle Verifier inspection and RAV entry are completed in-house, and you receive the vehicle with paperwork ready for state-level registration.

Please note: This explainer is general information only. Eligibility for import under SEVS is determined exclusively by the published approval on the Rover register and the Road Vehicle Standards Rules 2019. Carbarn cross-checks the exact build year, variant and model code against the published approval before bidding — confirming the published approval is the binding source.
