Your questions about buying, selling and importing cars in Switzerland

Yes, we offer personalised test drives by appointment for every vehicle in our catalogue. The test drive is entirely free and without obligation. We recommend allowing about an hour to discover your future vehicle in the best conditions on the roads of the Vaud Riviera.

All our vehicles benefit from a mechanical warranty included in the sale price. Each vehicle is delivered with a complete inspection report on more than 150 control points and a verified history. The duration and scope of the warranty vary by vehicle.

We offer financing solutions in partnership with the main Swiss banks. Traditional credit, leasing or bespoke financing: our team studies your file and proposes the solution best suited to your situation, with competitive rates.

Each vehicle undergoes a rigorous inspection on more than 150 control points covering mechanics, bodywork, electronics and the cabin. We verify the complete history of the vehicle, its mileage and the absence of major incidents. Only vehicles meeting our quality criteria are offered for sale.

Absolutely. We offer a trade-in service. The value of your current vehicle is deducted from the price of the desired vehicle, simplifying the transaction and administrative procedures.

We manage the entire import process: vehicle search, transport, customs clearance at the Swiss border, payment of VAT (8.1%), cantonal technical inspection and Swiss homologation. You receive your vehicle with Swiss plates.

Costs include Swiss VAT (8.1% on the vehicle value), customs duties (variable), homologation and technical inspection fees, as well as our management fees. We provide you with a detailed quote before any procedure.

We mainly import from Germany, Italy, France and other European Union countries. We can also organise imports from other countries on request. Our partner network gives us access to a wide catalogue of vehicles.

The average lead time is 2 to 4 weeks between order and delivery with Swiss plates. This timeframe includes transport, customs clearance, any technical adaptations and cantonal homologation.

Detailing is a set of professional techniques aimed at restoring and protecting every surface of your vehicle. It includes paint correction (removal of micro-scratches), high-gloss polishing, long-lasting ceramic coating and deep interior cleaning.

Our professional ceramic treatments are offered from CHF 800.-, including the complete preparation of the bodywork and the application of the coating. The final price depends on the size of the vehicle and the level of correction required. Contact us for a personalised quote.

A professional ceramic coating offers protection of 2 to 5 years depending on the product used and the vehicle's conditions of use. The ceramic layer creates a hydrophobic barrier that repels water, dirt and contaminants, making daily maintenance easier.

A regular wash only cleans the surface of the vehicle. Detailing goes much further: paint defect correction, chemical decontamination, leather treatment, steam cleaning of the cabin and application of long-lasting protections. The result is a vehicle enhanced as if it had just left the factory.

PPF is a transparent polyurethane film applied to the bodywork to protect it from stone chip impacts, surface scratches and chemical aggressions. Our latest-generation films are self-healing and virtually invisible.

The price varies depending on the areas to be protected. Partial protection (hood, bumpers, front fenders) is offered from CHF 1,500.-. Complete bodywork protection starts at around CHF 4,000.-. Contact us for a quote tailored to your vehicle.

Our high-quality PPF films offer guaranteed protection of 5 to 10 years depending on the chosen product. The film retains its transparency and self-healing properties throughout its lifespan, preserving your vehicle's original paint.

Yes, a professional-quality PPF film can be removed without leaving traces or damaging the original paint. This is one of the main advantages of PPF: it protects the paint while being entirely reversible.
