Auction Sheet Lookup
Check report availability
Enter the chassis number or frame number to check whether a Japanese auction report is available.
€15 includes the full True Report — straight from the Japanese auction database — plus a free AI consultant.
And you can get it back for free: buy a car through us and we credit the €15.
Start with the chassis/frame number: If a report is found, you continue to payment — the report costs €15. The €50 price applies only to Manual Search, which is offered if no report is found for this chassis/frame number.
Availability depends on auction records, data sources, vehicle age, and the exact chassis/frame number entered.
Manual fallback
When instant coverage is limited, a human review path is presented clearly.
Transparent limits
Auction data availability can vary by vehicle age, auction house, and source coverage.
Check a Japanese auction sheet before you buy
Cars From Japan CY checks whether a Japanese auction sheet is available for a specific vehicle using its chassis number, frame number, or VIN-like identifier. Enter the number and we check available auction and source records for a matching report. If a report is found, you can enter your email, continue to payment, and receive the report by email after successful payment. If nothing is found automatically, Manual Search is available for €50 — because “not found” does not always mean no auction history exists.
This service is built for buyers, dealers, exporters, and importers who want to verify a car before trusting a seller’s description. It is not a marketplace and it does not sell cars. It helps you check auction history, grades, mileage notes, and condition comments so you can decide with more confidence and less risk.
What an auction sheet check can reveal
Depending on the records available for a vehicle, an auction sheet can help you review details that sellers do not always disclose.
Auction grade
The overall grade summarises the inspector’s view of condition, from clean examples to accident-repaired or “R” graded cars.
Mileage at auction
The odometer reading recorded at the time of auction helps you spot inconsistencies with a seller’s mileage claim.
Accident and repair notes
Diagram marks and comments can indicate replaced panels, repainting, structural repair, or corrosion where recorded.
Condition comments
Inspector remarks and the interior grade add context that a single number cannot capture on its own.
When a manual check is needed
Not every vehicle has instant or complete auction-sheet data. Availability depends on the chassis number, the auction source, the age of the vehicle, and how well the record was captured. When an instant match is missing, partial, or unclear, Manual Search (€50) lets our team review available auction and source records by hand. It does not guarantee that a record exists, but it gives you the next best verification option instead of a dead end.
Who this service is for
Private buyers checking a Japanese import before payment, dealers verifying stock before resale, and exporters or importers validating auction history for their own customers. If you do not read Japanese, the report explains the sheet in plain language so the grade, mileage, and comments are usable for a real buying decision.

Common questions
What do I need to check a Japanese auction sheet?
You need the vehicle’s chassis number or frame number (a VIN-like identifier also works). Enter it exactly as shown on the documents or listing, then start the check.
Can you check by chassis number or frame number?
Yes. Both work. The important thing is that the identifier is accurate, so the check is run against the correct vehicle.
What happens if no auction sheet data is found?
“Not found” means no accessible instant record was located — it does not prove there is no auction history. In that case you can request Manual Search for €50, where our team reviews available records by hand.
Can an auction sheet show accident or repair history?
It can, where such details were recorded: diagram marks, repair notes, and inspector comments may indicate repaired or replaced parts. This depends on the individual sheet and source coverage.
Can a Japanese auction sheet be fake?
Seller-provided sheets can be edited, incomplete, or mismatched to the car. Checking the sheet against records by chassis or frame number helps you confirm it belongs to the vehicle you are buying.
Do I need to read Japanese to use the report?
No. The report explains the sheet in plain language, including the grade, mileage notes, and key comments, so you can use it without reading Japanese.
