About

A trading company that learned trucks.

İsta Oto was not founded as a parts business. It became one — which is why supply chain and documentation are treated here with the same seriousness as fitment.

The company

From general trade to heavy vehicles.

İsta Oto was established in Istanbul in 2015, working in commercial trading and international supply chain management. Those first years built the part of the business that customers rarely think about until it fails: sourcing relationships, export documentation, and the logistics discipline required to move goods across borders on a deadline.

In 2020 the company entered the heavy-duty truck industry properly — the purchase, sale and international distribution of trucks and their spare parts. The specialism was new; the operating standard was not.

Today we supply operators, fleets, workshops and parts distributors across Türkiye, the Middle East, Europe, Africa, Central Asia and the Americas from our facility in İkitelli OSB, Başakşehir.

How we work

Four positions we hold.

01

Fitment before price

A cheap part that does not fit is not cheap. We confirm the reference against your vehicle before we quote, every time — including on repeat orders, because variants change.

02

Say what the part is

Original, OE-supplier and aftermarket are different things at different prices. You are told which tier you are being quoted, so the comparison you make is a real one.

03

Honest lead times

An optimistic date helps nobody plan. If a part is slow, hard to source, or genuinely unavailable, you hear that at quotation rather than after the deadline has passed.

04

One point of contact

Enquiry through to delivery is handled by the same person. Nothing gets lost in a handover, and you never re-explain the vehicle.

Fit

Where we are not the right supplier.

Being clear about this saves everybody time.

  • Single low-value consumables shipped internationally — freight will exceed the part.
  • Passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Our range is heavy trucks and trailers.
  • Buyers who need a firm price before the vehicle can be identified. We quote after fitment is confirmed, not before.
Night motorway, long-exposure freight traffic

Working with us starts with a part number.

OEM reference, chassis number, or a clear photograph — any of them is enough to start.
