Vehicle Sourcing — Perth

Tell us what you want.
We'll find it.

Looking for a specific make, model, year, or spec? BenCal's vehicle sourcing service tracks down the car you actually want — from Perth, interstate, or ready for export — and delivers it inspected, priced, and ready to drive.

What We Source

Four common sourcing briefs.

If you can describe the car you want, we can usually find it. These are the four most common requests — but the brief is yours to write.

A specific car you can't find

You've seen the right Hilux, the right colour Forester, the exact Camry — but it's gone, or there's none locally. We track down the same vehicle from interstate dealers, auctions, or private sellers.

e.g. "2021 Toyota Hilux SR5, dual cab, manual, under 60,000 km, white"

Vehicles for shipping abroad

Sourcing tied to BenCal's cargo exports service. We match the year, fuel type, and spec to import rules for Kenya, Tanzania, or Uganda, then prep the car for the container.

e.g. "Right-hand-drive 4WD under 8 years old, suitable for Mombasa clearance"

Fleet additions for business

Need three more identical 4WDs for the project? Two more sedans for staff? We source matching specs across WA and interstate so your fleet stays consistent — same model, same trim, similar km.

e.g. "Five 2022 Ford Ranger XLT autos, white, under 80,000 km for site fleet"

Rare specs and low-km finds

Manual transmission. Particular trim. Sub-50,000 km. We work the network when standard search sites don't surface the spec you actually want — and we walk away from anything that doesn't match the brief.

e.g. "Subaru WRX manual, under 40,000 km, full service history, original paint"

Why BenCal Sourcing

One operator. Inspected. Total cost on the table.

Sourcing usually means a chain of brokers, each adding margin and nobody owning the outcome. BenCal does the whole job under one roof.

One point of contact

No broker chain. The person who takes your brief sees it through to delivery — same number, same email.

Independent inspections

Every candidate vehicle is inspected by a third party before you commit a deposit. If it doesn't check out, we keep looking.

Total cost up front

One quote covers the vehicle, transport, inspection, and any export prep. No surprise fees stacked on later.

Tied to cargo exports

If the car is going overseas, sourcing connects directly to our cargo exports service — one team, one paper trail, one invoice.

Common Questions

Sourcing questions, answered.

The things people usually ask before they hand us a brief.

How long does vehicle sourcing usually take?
Most sourcing briefs are matched within 1 to 4 weeks. Common specs (Hilux, Forester, Camry, RAV4) move quickly; rarer trims or very specific options can take longer. We give you a realistic timeline before you commit anything.
What does vehicle sourcing cost?
Our sourcing fee is built into the final delivered price — no separate broker margin layered on top. You get one quote covering the vehicle, inspection, transport to Perth, and any export prep before you commit.
Do I pay anything upfront?
No fee to send a brief. Once we identify a strong candidate and you approve it for inspection, a refundable deposit is taken to secure the vehicle while inspection and paperwork complete. If the inspection fails, the deposit is refunded.
Can you source vehicles for cargo export?
Yes. We regularly source vehicles destined for shipping to Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. We match the year, fuel type, and spec to your destination's import rules and prep the car for the container. See our cargo exports page for shipping details.
What happens if the inspection reveals problems?
If the independent inspection turns up undisclosed faults or major issues, you walk away — deposit refunded. We move to the next candidate. You only pay for a vehicle you've approved.
Can businesses use sourcing for fleet vehicles?
Yes. Perth businesses use BenCal sourcing to build matched-spec fleets — same model, same trim, similar km — across multiple vehicles. ABN-friendly invoicing and a single account manager throughout. Get in touch via our contact page for a fleet sourcing brief.
Do you source new cars as well as used?
Our core service is used and demo vehicles, where sourcing adds the most value. For brand-new cars we can introduce you to trusted dealers — but the sourcing service really pays off on the used and pre-owned side, where supply varies and timing matters.
Do you source vehicles from outside Western Australia?
Yes. Our network covers WA dealers and private sellers first, then expands to interstate (NSW, VIC, QLD, SA) when needed. Interstate transport to Perth is included in the delivered quote up front.
