Operational proof
How we handled the client brief
- Client
- Private vehicle owner
- Objective
- Safely deliver one Aztec from a Japanese auction to Dubai while preserving its original parts.
- Key considerations
- The car's low ground clearance required especially careful loading and unloading. At the client's request, we made a complete photographic record; one small trim piece was lost at a transit point and later found in Europe.
- Outcome
- The Aztec arrived in the same condition in which it was accepted. Actual delivery took 26 days. The missing trim piece was found in Europe, and the client received compensation; the exporter handled export formalities, while we prepared the Bill of Lading.
Route in detail
How the project was handled
Auction yard, Japan
We accepted one pre-owned Aztec at a Japanese auction and recorded its condition at the client's request. The certificate records first registration in April 1994 and mileage of 500 km on 28 October 2010. Dimensions were 4.26 × 1.99 × 1.17 m and vehicle weight was 1,560 kg.
Low-clearance loading preparation
We prepared the vehicle for container shipping. Because of its low ground clearance, the loading and unloading operations were carried out with extra care, controlling the ramp approach and body position.
Loading into a closed container
We selected a closed container to better preserve the car's original parts, secured the vehicle and completed the requested photographic record before departure.
Sea shipping to Dubai
We arranged the sea container shipment from Japan to Dubai. The exporter handled export formalities; we prepared the Bill of Lading.
Delivery result
The Aztec arrived in its original condition. A small trim piece was lost at a transit point, then found in Europe; the client received compensation. Actual delivery took 26 days.
