This Subaru Legacy BRG is approved for import to Australia under SEVS approval SEV-000897, all granted on the Performance Criterion, supported by 2 Model Report Entries (MREs) MRE-000211 and MRE-000727 from accredited Australian Vehicle Verifiers including SYDNEY AVV PTY LTD. Approvals cover builds from Feb 2012 to Sept 2014.
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 2/2012 to 9/2014 Subaru Legacy 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.
All timeframes are estimates and may vary depending on auction availability, VIA approval, shipping, and compliance.
We shortlist suitable vehicles matching the target model, year range, budget, grade, mileage, and condition. We arrange pre-bid physical inspection where possible before any bid is placed.
Once your approved bid wins, the vehicle is secured at the auction in Japan.
The VIA application is submitted to the Department of Infrastructure before any vessel is booked.
