Our Data Sources
Good decisions need good inputs, so we are precise about where our information comes from.
Auction records
Auction sheet reports are pulled directly from Japanese auction house systems using the vehicle's chassis number. We retrieve the original sheet image and the recorded grade, mileage and condition notes as the auction house stored them. We do not retype, retouch or 'improve' sheets — what the bidder in Japan saw is what you see.
New vehicle prices and specs
New-vehicle pages are compiled from manufacturer and official distributor price lists for Pakistan, cross-checked against dealer announcements when prices move. Ex-factory prices, variant line-ups and specifications are updated as brands revise them; where a figure is provisional we say so.
Marketplace data
Used-vehicle information — asking prices, availability, popular models — comes from live listings posted by real sellers on AutoOnes itself. It reflects what the market is asking today, not a survey from last year.
Limits, honestly stated
Auction data covers vehicles that passed through Japanese auctions; a car imported by other routes will not have a sheet, and its absence is not proof of a problem. Seller-entered listing details are the seller's claims until you verify them — our Anti-Fraud page explains how.
