Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. All vehicles we sell in the UK are HPI clear. Because the cars are imported directly from Japan, they do not carry UK finance, accident write-off, or theft records. Once registered in the UK, each vehicle is checked to ensure it is clear before sale, giving customers complete peace of mind.

Japanese vehicles are generally known for being well maintained and well cared for, and we take this a step further. Every vehicle we source is carefully selected based on condition, mileage, and overall quality. Cars are inspected in Japan using official auction grading systems, detailed reports, and physical, in-person inspections by our trusted representative in Japan before shipping. We only import vehicles that meet our standards.

Yes. Mileage authenticity is one of the biggest concerns for import buyers. In Japan, mileage fraud is taken very seriously and recorded at multiple stages, including auctions and inspections. We verify mileage through auction records, export documentation, and physical inspections, ensuring the mileage shown is genuine and accurate.

Because the vehicles were used and maintained in Japan, their service history exists there rather than in the UK. However, Japanese vehicles are subject to strict inspection and roadworthiness systems, and many come with documented mileage records through auctions and inspections. Once in the UK, customers can continue building UK service history as normal.

Yes. If you’re looking for a specific make, model, year, or budget, we can source a vehicle to order directly from Japan. We search trusted auctions and dealers, inspect suitable vehicles, and only proceed once a car meets our standards.

Absolutely. Many Japanese imports are ideal for daily driving, especially family cars such as hatchbacks, saloons, and MPVs. They are well engineered, regularly maintained, and often have lower mileage compared to UK-used equivalents.

Yes. We handle the import process and assist with UK compliance and registration, ensuring the vehicle meets UK regulations before sale and is fully road legal and ready to drive.

Japanese imports often offer better condition, lower mileage, higher specifications, and better value for money. Combined with our experience importing vehicles since 2000 and our strict inspection process, this provides customers with confidence and peace of mind.

We take multiple steps to minimize this risk through thorough pre-purchase and pre-shipment inspections. However, as with any used vehicle, issues can occasionally arise. If this happens, we are transparent and work with customers to address the situation appropriately.

We provide detailed information before purchase so customers know exactly what to expect. Our aim is to avoid surprises by ensuring clarity and honesty throughout the sourcing and import process.
