Why Carbarn Is Different

After your deposit, a Carbarn inspector goes to your exact car in Japan and sends real photos to your WhatsApp — before any bid is placed. You see the underbody, the hidden repairs, the real condition. You decide: bid or skip. Around that, we filter every vehicle for Australian import eligibility and show landed, complied pricing in AUD. You confirm. Then we bid.

Our biggest difference

Real inspection photos to your WhatsApp — before we bid

Auction photos are taken to sell the car. Our inspector photographs what they never show: underbody, rust, hidden repairs, interior condition. Don't like what we find? Skip — your deposit is refunded, or moves to your next car.

A Simple Five-Step Auction Buying Process

Japan-Side Physical Inspection and Extra Photos

Auction photos and auction grades are useful, but they do not always show every defect. After your deposit, a Carbarn inspector attends the car at the auction house and sends real photos — underbody, paint, interior — before any final bid is submitted.
