Autobianchi in our auction history. We monitor about 180,000 cars a week across Japanese auction networks. Autobianchi surfaces most often as: A112. We look at every car before the bid: the auction sheet with its condition grade, the body damage codes, detail photos and repair history.
Where they surface. In our history Autobianchi comes mostly from Osaka, HAA Kobe and Tokyo. The networks close on different days, USS Tokyo on Thursdays, HAA Kobe on Tuesdays, TAA Yokohama on Fridays, and that sets the bidding calendar.
Years and prices. Our Autobianchi records span 1984–1985. Start prices range from 50k JPY to 980k JPY. Those are opening prices, not sale prices. Shipping from Japan is by RoRo vessel to Rotterdam, where the car clears customs; the RoRo versus container trade-offs are in container or RoRo.
History on paper. A Japanese Autobianchi has an inspection on record every two years, so we compare the odometer against documents rather than against a listing; for that we hold 11 such cars in the database.
