Method

How a crossing is run. You name the car. We find it, photograph it, agree the purchase, ship it, and put it on a British driveway. You pay the owner. Title never sits with us.

Source

A written brief: make, year, spec, colour, miles, budget, and any cars you will not touch. We search private owners first, then specialist lots, and we will say when the car you want does not exist at that price.

Photograph

A photographer on our instruction, not the seller’s phone. Panels, paint meter notes, interior, underbody where we can get it, and a short condition letter so you can walk away before money moves.

Agree

We negotiate. You purchase. Funds go to the owner. Title never parks with Savage Imports. If the deal fails, the brief can restart on the next candidate.

Ship

Inland truck, export declaration, enclosed or standard ocean freight, UK customs and duty path. You see the sailing, not a black box.

Deliver

Port to workshop or driveway. Registration and IVA guidance as the car requires. The brief closes when you have the keys and the paperwork pack.

If you already know the car, start the brief.

A brief is where year, spec and landing place go on the book.
