Selling cars since 2009
We started with an open lot for 20 cars on Babek Avenue. Today we have two addresses in Baku and one in Ganja, our own service centre and 146 staff. In 2025 we handed over 1,840 cars.
How we started
Rauf Alizade opened a used-car lot on Babek Avenue in 2009. At first we sold about 150 cars a year, every one checked by us.
The name comes from the bay horse (kəhər) Rauf’s father kept in Aghjabadi. We wanted a short name that reads the same in three languages and stands for something real.
One rule from the start: we do not sell a car we have not checked, and we repair what we sell. The 120-point check grew out of that rule.

How we work
- New cars
- Bought from makers’ exporters and regional suppliers. We are not an official distributor and do not hide it.
- Used cars
- From their owners and through trade-in. A car that fails the 120-point check is sold uncertified at its own price, or we do not buy it.
- Service
- 12 bays on Babek Avenue and 3 in Ganja, 54 technicians. Warranty repairs on the cars we sell are done here.
- Sales
- 38 advisers in Baku and 9 in Ganja. Most of their pay depends on the buyer’s feedback, not on the sale.
