When clients ask how we keep the fleet in such good shape – the condition, the specs, the consistency – the honest answer is: most of our Range Rovers came from the United States. Not bought locally, not sourced from European dealers. Purchased directly at American auctions and shipped to Georgia.
We didn’t start out doing it this way. For a while we sourced locally – and kept hitting the same wall: wrong spec, murky history, or a price that made no sense for the business. American auctions solved all three problems at once. Now it’s our primary sourcing channel.
Below is one real deal, with the numbers at every stage.
What We Were Looking For
The brief was specific: Range Rover Vogue in Autobiography Black trim, 2024 model year, under 20,000 miles, petrol. Autobiography Black is Land Rover’s top factory specification – 3.0-litre engine producing 400 hp, air suspension, the full active safety package, and an interior finish that in Georgia is either unavailable or priced well above the standard market rate.
On MyAuto and through private sellers, a car like this in decent condition starts from $140,000 – when you can find one at all. We knew the US would come in cheaper. The question was by how much.
How We Work
Every deal runs on a signed contract with staged payments. No verbal commitments, no surprise charges at the end. An initial deposit of $3,000 is locked in at the start – it goes toward the final total and establishes a clear foundation on both sides. From there, the search begins.
We monitor Copart, IAAI, and Manheim simultaneously. Every promising lot is reviewed and confirmed before a bid is placed – the client sees the photos, the VIN history, the auction sheet. Nothing is purchased without sign-off.
The Deal
We found what we needed a few weeks in. Range Rover Vogue Autobiography Black, January 2024, 15,000 miles, 3.0-litre petrol, 400 hp. Clean title, no insurance incidents. Auction price: $80,000.
A payment of $42,000 was made to cover the vehicle and auction commission. Export documents were processed, and the car was handed to the port. Sea freight from the US to Poti, Georgia: 2.5 months. All-in shipping cost: $10,000 – ocean freight, cargo insurance, full export and import documentation, and customs clearance on arrival in Georgia.
Once the car arrived, the final payment of $45,000 was made, ownership was transferred, and the vehicle joined the fleet.
The Numbers
| Item | Amount |
| Initial deposit (applied to total) | $3,000 |
| Vehicle purchase + auction commission | $42,000 |
| Final payment on handover | $45,000 |
| All-in shipping to Georgia | $10,000 |
| Sourcing fee (10% of vehicle price) | ~$9,000 |
| Total | ~$99,000 |
| Equivalent on MyAuto (Georgia) | from $140,000 |
| Savings | $41,000 – 40% |
A 2024 Range Rover Vogue Autobiography Black with 15,000 miles, landed in Georgia for $99,000. The same car on the local market at the time: from $140,000. The $41,000 gap isn’t a one-off from a lucky lot. It’s a consistent pricing structure between the US and Georgian markets – one that holds deal after deal.
Why We Now Do This for Clients
Rental clients started asking about it themselves. Someone takes a Range Rover for a week, drives it through Georgia, and at some point the question becomes natural: can you bring one for me?
We can. The process is exactly the same as what we run for our own fleet: signed contract, staged payments, active communication at every step. Our fee is 10% of the vehicle’s auction price. Delivery is available to Georgia and to CIS countries – Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, and others. Customs terms vary by destination and are worked out individually.
If you want to know what a specific car would cost, leave a request or reach out on WhatsApp. We turn around an estimate quickly.
