Uruguayan automotive dealers should include foreseeable reconditioning work in per-vehicle gross-margin calculations. Based on the inspection report, purchasing personnel should list bodywork and paint, tires, maintenance, fault diagnosis, and missing parts, then obtain internal estimates from after-sales staff or partner repair shops and review them together with the purchase price, logistics costs, and planned selling price. Vehicles with insufficient condition evidence should carry an additional risk reserve or receive no bid, avoiding calculations based on ideal vehicle condition. Destination-country import eligibility, duties and taxes, registration, and local procedures are subject to the applicable requirements of competent authorities, licensed institutions, and the contract.
