Although it is possible for individuals and companies alike to purchase jap imports directly from Japan and then import them and take care of all the paperwork and SVA testing etc. The vast majority of imported cars from Japan come from auctions held at Southampton docks. Southampton is the jap import docks in the UK. The other main port of entry for import cars is Liverpool but this tends to be for American imports. Newcastle port also deals with Jap imports for the north and Scotland.

blue nissan cube

The Nissan Cube is rare amongst concept cars as this car actually made it into production! The Cube is one of the most sought after Japan used cars imports, after becoming a cult classic in Japan everyone wanted one in UK. But unfortunately Nissan will not yet officially import the Cube as it will step on the toes of their mainstream small MPV the Note. (however we may say some officially imported Cubes in late 2007 or early 2008 as Nissan are looking at making a LHD version for import into USA to capitalize on the phenomenal popularity of this cool mini MPV). Right now the Cube is available from grey importers from £5000 -£10000 for cubes in great condition, service history and low mileage - what a bargain, one of the coolest cars on the road for £5000!!!!!!

Skyline GT-R: The ultimate Japanese supercar, one of the most popular Japanese importsCar importers from Japan ( sometimes referred to as jap car importers!) have been around for some time. The attraction for us in the UK of these imports or “grey” cars is they are generally in excellent condition with low mileage - average yearly mileage in Japan is less than 5K and no salt or grit on the roads, low second hand prices and plenty of availablility!

The most popular type of car imports are the high performance cars such as Nissan Skyline, Subaru Impreza, Mitsibushi Evo and Gallant VR4, Toyota Supra’s and Celica’s etc. However there is a market in other Japanese models particularly those which were never sold in the UK marketplace for one reason or another.
