What verified means

The badge indicates that the business passed Makina Elektrike’s review process. It helps identify the business but is not a mechanical inspection of every vehicle, a stock guarantee or transaction insurance.

Find the right dealer

  • Search the directory: Use brand, location and the available filters.
  • Open the profile: Read business description, address, brands, services, contacts and gallery.
  • Check inventory: Open concrete listings and note the date.
  • Compare businesses: Consider offer, expertise and clarity, not only distance.
  • Contact: Name the vehicle and provide enough context for a useful answer.

Useful profile signals

  • Clear identity: Business name, description, address and matching contacts.
  • Relevant brands and services: Specific information connected with your need.
  • Maintained inventory: Complete current listings with real vehicle media.
  • Verifiable answers: Confirmation of variant, price, availability and next steps.

Questions before a test drive

  • Is this specific vehicle still available?
  • What are the exact variant, battery, year and mileage?
  • What is included in the price and how long is it valid?
  • What warranty and service documentation is available?
  • Can an independent inspection be arranged?
  • Which cables or charging accessories are included?
  • When is a test drive possible and what document is required?

A clear first message

Hello. I am interested in [model/listing]. Is it still available? Please confirm the variant, year, mileage, price inclusions and available warranty and history documents. Could we arrange a test drive and independent inspection on [day/time]?

Do not send identity documents, banking details or unnecessary personal information in the first message. Keep important statements in writing and verify the vehicle against the listing.

After the reply

Review documents and conditions before payment and use independent technical, legal or financial expertise when needed.

Do not proceed solely because the business has a verification badge. Report material inaccuracies and base your decision on evidence you can check.

Search by your needs

Filter the directory and read the full profile before making contact.

Blog FAQ

How is a dealer verified?

The business passes the platform review before receiving verified status; private checks are not published.

Is every vehicle separately verified?

Listing moderation is not a mechanical inspection. Check the vehicle and documents independently.

Is a reply guaranteed?

No. The platform provides contact paths; timing and content depend on the business.

Can I save a dealer?

Yes. Favourites can organise dealers alongside models and listings.
