Car import · Step by step

Import in six steps.

From search brief to a road-ready car on your driveway. We handle every step. Here's exactly what happens and when.

Lead time

2 weeks on average

  1. 01

    Request & briefing

    You tell us exactly what you're looking for: make, trim, options, budget. We agree on the desired delivery timing and build a search profile.

  2. 02

    Selection & inspection

    We scan the European market and shortlist candidates at authorised dealers. One of us inspects the car in person before we commit.

  3. 03

    Purchase & transport

    We negotiate, buy, and arrange insured transport by trailer to Amstelveen. No risk on the open road.

  4. 04

    RDW inspection

    Identification and technical inspection at the RDW. We schedule the appointment and accompany the check so it all clears in one go.

  5. 05

    BPM filing

    BPM declaration based on the actual condition of the car, with the proper depreciation table. Not a euro too much, fully compliant.

  6. 06

    Road-ready handover

    Registration certificate, license plates, optional detailing and accessories. You drive off with a Dutch plate, or we deliver to your door.

European market

Access to the full European offering, not just what's here.

The Dutch market is a fraction of what Europe has to offer. Through our contacts at authorised dealers across Germany, Belgium, Italy and beyond we often find exactly the trim, colour combination or options package you can't find here. No request is too specific. A brief from you is enough to start the search.

RDW & BPM expertise

Fiscally airtight, no surprises later.

BPM on imports is a discipline of its own. We file based on the actual condition of the vehicle, with the correct depreciation table and all supporting evidence the Belastingdienst needs. Not a euro overpaid, no risk of reassessment. RDW inspection and registration handled in one continuous track.

Personal track

One point of contact, from brief to driveway.

No call centres, no vague middlemen. You have a single contact within our team who keeps you updated throughout the journey, shares photos, and walks you through every decision point. Questions in between? Answered directly. That's how we prefer to work ourselves.

Frequently asked

Good to know

  • What does an import via Manstory cost?

    Our import fee depends on the vehicle type and complexity of the journey (search, transport distance, rarity factors). During intake we lay out a transparent pricing structure with every item visible: purchase price, transport, BPM, RDW costs, and our margin. Agreed upfront, no surprises afterwards.

  • How long does an import typically take?

    From the moment we sign off on a specific candidate the journey takes around two weeks to handover. That includes inspection, purchase, transport, RDW inspection and BPM filing. The search itself can be shorter or longer depending on how specific your requirements are.

  • Which cars do you import?

    We focus on premium and performance segments: Audi RS, Mercedes-AMG, BMW M, Porsche, Range Rover, Bentley, Aston Martin and similar. Classics and special youngtimers are welcome too. Unsure if your wish fits? Send us a message. We review every request personally.

  • Do you handle RDW and BPM, or is that on me?

    Fully in-house. We arrange the RDW inspection, file the BPM declaration and take care of the registration. You receive the car road-ready with Dutch plates on your driveway, including all supporting paperwork in one folder.

  • What if the car differs from the advertisement on inspection?

    Our personal inspection before commitment is for exactly this. If the car deviates significantly from how it was advertised or its condition doesn't match what we agreed on, we stop the process at no cost to you and look for the next candidate. No obligation to proceed.

  • Do I get a warranty on an imported vehicle?

    Yes. All imported vehicles delivered by us come with our dealer warranty. Terms and duration depend on the model year and mileage. We discuss this explicitly during intake and lock it down in writing before starting the journey.
