Levcar: Cars from Asia

You want a car from Japan, China or Korea, but it is unclear where to start or what it will really cost. The Levcar bot is made for the first step: press START and write your question to a car import team. 🚗

This is a feedback bot attached to the company's channel. It does not sell cars automatically. You talk to real people and can describe what you need.

What you can ask Levcar

The bot's greeting lists what to ask about: car selection, price calculation, rough pricing and options that fit your budget.

• Calculate a car. If you found a model you like, send it in for a cost estimate.
• Get a price idea. Find out roughly what a particular make will cost.
• Match a budget. Name an amount and learn what fits inside it.
• Any other help. Questions on timing, documents and how the purchase works.

Three countries, three different markets

The company works with Japan, China and Korea. These markets differ, and so does the approach to each. 🌏

Japanese cars often attract buyers with their condition and familiar models, Korean ones are known for modern equipment, and the Chinese market grows fast and offers many new models. Which to pick is best settled with a manager once you state your budget and requirements.

How to write so you get a useful answer

The more specific the question, the faster the reply. "How much is a car?" leaves a manager with ten follow-ups. It is different when you give the essentials at once.

1. Country and make. Where you want to import from and which model interests you.
2. Year and mileage. Acceptable age and distance driven.
3. Budget. The amount you want to stay within, and whether it includes delivery and paperwork.
4. City. Where the car needs to be delivered.

What the import price is made of

The auction or seller price is far from the final one. Delivery, customs payments, a recycling fee, intermediary services and paperwork get added on top.

Customs rules and rates change and depend on the car's age, engine size and power. So ask for a turnkey calculation in rubles with every item listed, rather than only the price of the car abroad. 🧾

What to check before paying

Buying a car from abroad rests on trust, and a little caution never hurts. Before sending money, make sure of a few things.

• The contract. It should state the make, trim, final price, deadlines and how refunds work.
• A condition report. Ask for inspection documents and photos of the car.
• Reviews. Look for independent reviews of the company, not only those it publishes itself.
• Payment method. Transfers to personal cards and urgent "discounts until tonight" should raise a flag.

Why a bot is a handy first step

In a messenger you can describe the task calmly, attach a link to a listing you like and return to the chat when you have time. There is no need to call during office hours and repeat yourself. 💬

If a question is complicated, a manager may suggest a call or moving to another channel. By then the first contact is done and the conditions sit in the conversation history.

If you are only browsing

You do not have to know the model. Tell them how you use a car: city or highway, family or solo trips, how much you can spend on maintenance. Those inputs are enough for suitable options to be suggested.

Compare offers from several suppliers and take your time. A good deal survives a day of thinking.
