01Our storySince 2019

AV-ABT-01

One car, one promise.

Avava started in 2019 with one car and a problem: buying anything special meant a long drive, a pushy dealer and a history nobody could fully explain.

So we built the place we wanted to buy from — every car inspected on 150 points by our own technicians, priced against the real market and delivered on an enclosed truck.

Still small enough to know every car on the floor by name.
