01 / BUYER DECISION
Identify what happened after the accepted examination
List preparation, intervention, storage and movement with dates and responsible parties where supported. The shipping and custody review describes the carrier route; this comparison checks whether accepted condition and included work remain current. Define which observations require refreshing and who can appropriately provide them. A complete original inspection and a loading photograph have different boundaries. If no material change occurred, still reconfirm identity and agreed objects. Do not mechanically repeat unrelated tasks or treat a brief final image as equivalent to a full examination. The buyer should understand the purpose, scope and limitations of the proposed refresh before it is described as completed verification.
02 / BUYER DECISION
Reconnect the physical car with the accepted market identity
Compare VIN, original legal model, production record, propulsion and relevant fitted system with the purchase schedule. Keep current odometer and applicable state observations instead of copying earlier figures. A familiar white body or Sealion sales label cannot establish that the same China candidate is being handed over. Retain changed component identifiers or material equipment within appropriate scope. If records conflict, stop the affected approval until the responsible source resolves it. Do not replace the file with an allegedly better market version without renewed review. The original acceptance may depend on a particular battery, charging arrangement, repair record or legitimate owner-access condition that another vehicle does not share.
03 / BUYER DECISION
Verify completed work and affected functions safely
Reference the attributable provider record and observations appropriate to the operations performed. The negotiation and preparation review keeps included work distinct from a cash reduction. Battery intervention may require qualified assessment through the battery-work buying review; a receipt alone cannot establish current compatibility or workmanship. Replaced glass may need its own relevant fitment and assistance evidence. Do not open high-voltage systems, force charging connections or stage hazardous driving to obtain a final pass. Record conditions, date and unexamined areas. Completion evidence should explain what was done and what the affected observations support rather than converting them into an unlimited guarantee for the entire vehicle.
04 / BUYER DECISION
Compare present condition after transport or inactivity
Retain dated media and appropriate examination for relevant panels, glass, wheels, cabin, loading area and accessible underside within the agreed scope. The water-entry review helps when moisture or sealing questions arise. Compare with accepted earlier evidence rather than showing only attractive angles. Keep changed warnings, visible marks and unresolved concerns available for qualified follow-up. Do not infer when or by whom a mark was caused without a supported timeline. A visual comparison can establish observed differences but cannot exclude every hidden issue. If a consequential finding needs further assessment, do not reclassify it as ordinary movement wear merely to close the handover file.
05 / BUYER DECISION
Reconcile agreed objects and current carrier instructions
Count actual keys, relevant removable equipment, documents and applicable charging accessories against the accepted list. Use the keys and account process for legitimate access obligations while keeping sensitive credentials out of public media. Obtain current instructions from the responsible carrier for the exact DM-i or EV and route, retaining source and date. Do not invent a universal shipping charge percentage or assume fuel and high-voltage handling are identical across products. Carrier processing acceptance does not establish current condition, legitimate connected services or final receiving eligibility. Keep those responsibilities separate even when the same dated handover record supplies useful evidence for several parts of the transaction.
06 / BUYER DECISION
Explain the differences before declaring completion
Classify a change as accepted disclosure, defined correction needing suitable evidence or a consequential issue requiring renewed assessment. State the responsible reviewer and conditions for the next step. Appropriate remedies and payment consequences belong in suitably reviewed transaction documents where needed; this comparison cannot create a universal legal result. A newly proposed VIN or material intervention reopens the sourcing acceptance. Preserve original and refreshed records together so the change and decision are traceable. Completion should say what matched, what differed and what could not be examined. Shipment or a loading video must not be presented as proof of remaining battery life, final registration or every future journey outcome.
ACCEPTANCE CONDITIONS
Compare the purchase routes
- Matches within scope

- Correction pending
- An understood difference requires accountable preparation and suitable verification.
- Renewed review
- A consequential finding or candidate substitution reopens acceptance.
EVIDENCE FILE
Buyer checklist
- List post-inspection work and movement.
- Reconfirm actual China-model identity.
- Verify affected functions within safe qualified scope.
- Compare condition and agreed objects.
- Obtain current propulsion-specific carrier instructions.
QUESTIONS
Close the relevant uncertainty
Can final loading media replace the full original inspection?
No. It is a narrower record to compare with earlier acceptance and subsequent work evidence.
Does a pre-shipment check guarantee receiving approval?
No. Destination eligibility and future vehicle performance remain separate questions.
