Some clients come in confident. Some come in curious. And then there was this American family — wonderful people, but absolutely determined to test us before their relatives would even consider buying a car.
Their relatives wanted a newer Toyota C‑HR too, but said:
“You go first. If AB‑Motors doesn’t scam you, then we’ll buy ours.”
So the family laughed and told us:
“We’re the guinea pigs.”
And then came the running gag that defined the entire process:
“But what if a BOULDER falls on the car while it’s in transit or still your liability?”
Challenge accepted.
Background
They wanted a Toyota C‑HR Hybrid — reliable, efficient, stylish, and perfect for Spain. But they didn’t want:
Spanish‑market junk
scratched ex‑rentals
mystery histories
inflated prices
or cars that had lived a hard life
They wanted a clean, low‑km, well‑equipped C‑HR with full Toyota service history and eligibility for the 15‑year Toyota manufacturer warranty.
So we went hunting in the European market — where the good cars actually live.
And we found one.
What We Did
Sourced a clean Toyota C‑HR Hybrid with low mileage
Verified the full Toyota service history
Confirmed eligibility for the 15‑year Toyota manufacturer warranty
Handled the purchase, transport, import, and taxes
Registered it in Spain
Delivered it directly to their home in Salobreña
And throughout the entire process, the Boulder Scenario continued:
“Okay, but seriously… what if a BOULDER falls on it while it’s still your responsibility?”
Our official AB‑Motors answer:
“That’s what insurance is for.”
Spoiler: No boulder came.
Results
A pristine Toyota C‑HR Hybrid delivered to the American family in Salobreña
Full Toyota service history
Eligible for the 15‑year Toyota warranty
Clean, accident‑free, low‑km example
Fully registered and delivered without drama
A family who went from skeptical to loyal
Relatives who immediately ordered their own, newer C‑HR after seeing the result
And a Boulder Scenario that ended with zero geological incidents
This is AB‑Motors: We pass every test — even hypothetical falling‑rock scenarios.
Why This Matters
The Spanish used‑car market is full of:
overpriced hybrids
scratched ex‑rentals
cars with missing history
and sellers who swear “perfecto estado” while the bumper falls off
This story shows what AB‑Motors does differently:
sourcing from the right markets
verifying everything
handling every step
delivering cars that exceed expectations
And most importantly: earning trust the right way — even from families who test us with boulders.
