Japan has been a major exporter of new cars for a number of decades now. What is less well known is that Japanese exports of used cars are also very strong.
There are a number of reasons, a few of which would be:
- Cars sold in Japan tend to have a relatively high level of standard equipment.
- New car prices in Japan are comparatively low, which makes used car prices even more attractive.
- Typical mileage is low.
- Cars in Japan are carefully maintained and well looked after.
- Culturally, Japanese people prefer new items, so used products tend to lose value quickly.
The upshot is that by sourcing vehicles from Japan, you can get good quality vehicles with low mileage at very reasonable prices - even when all the costs of shipping and importing are factored in.
The obstacle to being able to get these vehicles is the you need a good supplier in Japan who has the broadest base to source the widest variety of vehicles, who can also handle all the export requirements and who you can trust with your money.
Provide Cars covers all these bases for you:
- With over 90 auction locations covered, we give you access to the absolute widest variety of vehicles as they are auctioned 6 days a week in locations throughout Japan.
- We handle all export arrangements, including the particular requirements of certain countries (such as the JEVIC test, the JAAI test, MAF compliance etc.)
- We leverage our connections with a large number of shipping lines to get your vehicles shipped off to you as quickly as possible and at the best price.
- And through this whole process our multilingual staff work hard to ensure that you have the best information to make your purchasing decisions, and that you are kept up-to-date at every stage with what is happening with your purchases.
