7. AUCTION PROCEDURES
7.1 UnipolRental conducts online auctions of its used vehicles via the Website. Vehicles offered at auction by UnipolRental are described in detail and accompanied by digital photographs displayed in the dedicated showcase visible to the registered User upon access to the Website. For each vehicle offered, UnipolRental sets both the Starting Bid Price, visible to Users, below which no bids may be placed, and the Reserve Price, also visible to Users, which represents the minimum amount that UnipolRental is willing to accept for the sale of the vehicle. Each auction has a maximum duration from its commencement, which will be indicated by UnipolRental on a case-by-case basis. Bids, meaning offers submitted by registered and authorised Users, may be placed up to the time indicated by UnipolRental for the duration of the auction. A registered User who submits a bid during the auction is bound by their offer until a higher bid is submitted by another registered User. If, at the end of the auction, no bids exceed the Reserve Price, UnipolRental reserves the right not to award the vehicle. Where two or more registered Users submit bids at the same amount, provided the bids are not below the Starting Bid Price, the bid submitted first shall be deemed the highest (in the case of “sealed-bid” auction sessions).
7.2 Bids submitted in accordance with these terms constitute a binding purchase commitment by the User. Participation in the auction and the submission of bids must only be undertaken with the genuine intention to purchase the vehicle. Before placing a bid, the User must carefully examine the vehicle of interest as presented in the showcase, scrutinising all photographic material, which forms an integral part of the vehicle information sheet used to evaluate its configuration, accessories, and overall condition. Minor wear and tear on vehicles offered at auction cannot subsequently be claimed by the winning User and will not be reimbursed, nor will any defects clearly highlighted in the photographic report or vehicle inspection. Any wear-and-tear damage is fully described in the dedicated inspection report relating to each vehicle offered for auction, which is available for consultation in the relevant vehicle showcase.
7.3 Upon the closure of the auction, UnipolRental shall award the vehicle based on the bids received. For the purposes of the award, UnipolRental shall consider the highest bid, subject to the Starting Bid Price and in accordance with the provisions set out in clauses 7.1 and 7.2 above. With the award, the sales contract for the vehicle shall be deemed concluded, and the Contracting Parties are obliged to fulfil their respective obligations. Specifically, the winning User must make payment in accordance with the instructions received from UnipolRental, which, upon receipt of payment, shall (i) make the vehicle available for collection together with all essential accompanying documents; (ii) take all necessary steps to register the transfer of ownership with the public vehicle registry; (iii) guarantee the buyer against claims of third-party ownership and against defects other than those highlighted in the inspection report, the vehicle description, and the photographic report. The place of conclusion of the contract shall be the registered office of UnipolRental as indicated in clause 1 above.
7.4 UnipolRental shall notify the winning bidder by email and PEC. The award notification shall include the information required to make payment, which must be made by bank transfer to UnipolRental’s account, IBAN: IT93I0538712800000004374387, within 10 (ten) days from the date of the award. Failure to pay within this period shall result in the cancellation of the award and exclusion from the portal.
In addition, if the winning User does not complete payment within the specified term, a penalty of €350.00 (three hundred and fifty euros) shall be paid to UnipolRental.
The winning User also acknowledges and agrees that access to the portal shall be automatically suspended until the aforementioned penalty is paid.
UnipolRental retains ownership of the sold vehicle until full payment of the purchase price has been received. Ownership shall only transfer to the buyer upon receipt of the full payment. Once full payment has been registered, the winning User will be notified by email and PEC of the date and location at which the vehicle will be available for collection. The risk of loss or damage to the vehicle shall pass to the Buyer from the day following the date on which the vehicle is made available for collection. Collection of the vehicle is at the Buyer’s own expense. In addition to the purchase price of the vehicle, the User shall be required to pay an additional amount as administrative fees, equal to €350.00 (three hundred and fifty euros), VAT included, if the vehicle is purchased within the national territory, or €322.00 (three hundred and twenty-two euros), VAT included, if the purchase relates to a vehicle intended for export. These amounts shall be added to the vehicle purchase price.
7.5 Transportation costs shall be borne by the Buyer. The vehicle must be collected within 15 days of the notification to the Buyer by UnipolRental specifying the date and place of collection, as set out in clause 7.4 above. After this period, UnipolRental may charge the Buyer €5.00 (five euros) as a parking fee for each day of delay. For sales abroad subject to vehicle inspection under Article 103, paragraph 1 of the Italian Highway Code (Legislative Decree No. 285/1992), the contract relating to the individual vehicle shall be subject to a resolutive condition, namely the deregistration of the vehicle from the National Vehicle Archive and the Public Vehicle Register (PRA) by the competent authority. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that UnipolRental (i) shall not be held liable if the vehicle fails the prescribed inspection under Article 103, paragraph 1 of the Highway Code; (ii) shall not be obliged to make modifications, improvements, alterations or maintenance of any kind to the vehicle to ensure it passes the inspection; (iii) reserves, at its sole discretion, the right to cancel the sale of any vehicle that does not pass the inspection, as well as to annul the award and the entire sale procedure, with refund of the amount paid, without interest, to the winning User. For sales abroad only, the Buyer undertakes, upon receipt of the purchased vehicle, to send to UnipolRental a copy of the CMR (Convention Marchandises Routières) form, duly stamped and signed in the Buyer’s section, within five days from receipt, as evidence of correct delivery of the purchased goods.
8. POST-SALE CLAIMS
8.1 If the purchased vehicle arrives at the Buyer with bodywork or interior damage, or missing accessories and/or components that were not reported in the inspection report and are not clearly visible in the photographs published on the Website, the Buyer must submit a claim in compliance with the statutory deadlines and these contractual terms. Claims must be submitted via the dedicated claims form available in the restricted area of the portal, after login, at www.unipolrentalauctioncenter.it/hr/reclami, following the instructions provided on the page. All claims must be submitted within 72 hours of vehicle collection.
8.2 If the contested damage or missing accessories/components are visible in the photographs published on the Website, included in the inspection report (ANIA document published), or stated in the notes of such report, UNIPOLRENTAL shall not be obliged to provide any compensation or to reduce the purchase price pursuant to Article 1491 of the Italian Civil Code.
8.3 If the Buyer identifies mechanical defects not reported in the inspection report and, in any case, not visible in the photographs published on the Website, the Buyer must notify UnipolRental within 72 hours of vehicle collection, or in the case of hidden defects, within eight days of their discovery, pursuant to Article 1495, paragraph 1, of the Italian Civil Code, via the dedicated claims form in the restricted area of the portal, after login, at www.unipolrentalauctioncenter.it/hr/reclami, following the instructions provided. Claims shall, in any case, expire one year after delivery of the vehicle, pursuant to Article 1495, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code, or in the case of a maximum distance of 80 km from the mileage recorded at the time of delivery.
Where UnipolRental verifies the actual existence of damage reported by the Buyer, not declared in the inspection report and not visible in the photographic documentation, it may offer either the repair of the damage at an authorised workshop, or a reimbursement, provided the Buyer has not already requested a price reduction.
Reimbursement shall be effected upon receipt by UnipolRental of an invoice with the subject “Damage Reimbursement (vehicle registration plate)”, which shall be payable within 60 days end of month from the invoice date.
No reimbursement shall be granted for misunderstandings regarding vehicle colour, paint defects, or poorly executed repairs.
No claims shall be processed in relation to:
- requests concerning wear-and-tear items (for example, but not limited to: clutch, brakes, etc.)
- reimbursement requests for navigation CDs or SD cards
- labour estimates for fault-finding
- estimates for waste disposal or cleaning materials
- routine maintenance items depending on mileage
- wear-related damage (as detailed in Annexes 1 – Technical Specification for Cars and 2 – Technical Specification for Commercial Vehicles)
Reimbursement shall be effected upon receipt by UnipolRental of an invoice with the subject “Damage Reimbursement (vehicle registration plate)”, which shall be payable within 60 days end of month from the invoice date.
8.4 For vehicles offered at auction in a damaged/faulty condition (units unrepaired and sold as-is), UnipolRental shall not grant any reimbursement in the event of claims. It should be noted that the inspection report provided for information purposes in relation to such vehicles is general in nature and does not cover all parts of the vehicle.
Any reimbursement granted is intended as a contribution. In the event of disagreement, UnipolRental shall send an independent surveyor (within Italy) to verify the claim and shall recognise, accordingly, the difference compared to the inspection report published on the portal.
9. MODEL DISCREPANCIES
In the event of a discrepancy between the model presented/described at auction and the vehicle delivered to the Buyer, UnipolRental may grant a reimbursement calculated based on the EUROTAX BLU difference for the month of sale between the two models, reduced by a percentage reflecting the vehicle’s mileage and age. Alternatively, the sale contract may be terminated if the sold vehicle lacks the attributes that are essential to its functionality, utility, or value, thereby constituting a case of aliud pro alio (as governed by Article 1497 of the Italian Civil Code).
9.1 Discrepancies related to mileage.
In the event of a discrepancy between the mileage of the vehicle presented/described at auction and that of the vehicle delivered to the Buyer, UnipolRental may grant a reimbursement calculated according to the rules set out in the ETAX BLU publication:
Mileage above the average
A depreciation of 1.5% for every additional 7,500 km is applied to the EUROTAX valuation. In any case, this depreciation shall not exceed 60% of the indicated value.
Mileage below the average
An appreciation of 1% for every 5,000 km below the indicated value is applied to the EUROTAX valuation. In any case, this appreciation shall not exceed 25% of the indicated value.
Based on the calculation, UnipolRental shall propose a lump-sum reimbursement according to the vehicle’s condition, age, and model.
10. WITHDRAWAL
The Buyer may only withdraw from the purchase of a Vehicle in the specific cases set out below, which are to be considered exhaustive: (a) lack of ownership or authority to sell on the part of the Seller; (b) registrations or entries in favour of third parties in the Public Vehicle Registry (PRA); (c) proven tampering with the odometer reading, subject to a tolerance of 15%.
