I was at the big police station in Osaka yesterday and saw some unmarked police cars there they where driving them out to patrol like a 1991 Cedric so i believe its possible they keep some cars for a very long time

saw a funny ADD on carsales the other week i was looking at Landcruiser HDJ80 type 80series wagons i saw 1 advertised low klm so i took a look it had 280,000klm on it but you know after looking at a few others all way over 300,000klm i guess the owner was right for what it was it is low klm

probably 50% of the cars i check at auction i look at the wear 1st not the speedo and make a judgement then look at the speedo and i can tell you i find myself laughing a lot at auction. RBNT u need to change that now to RBQLD hahaha or RBkenny.... email me ill send u Sasa`s email i talk regularly to him funny as hell he is, allways the character. hurry up and make the POP. the best one i saw a few years ago was the kiwi guys buying trucks at 1,000,000klm they would knock off a good 600,000klm and send the trucks into NZ now thats a haircut.

dont worry it will be in australia soon in a dealers yard with 50,000klm on it

Carchs Co is a large domestic car yard here in japan im pretty sure also they will not export the car for you, you would need to use a company like ourself to export it and do the domestic purchase of the vehicle on your behalf. regards, Phil

now thats made me hungry ....

hey Kristian i saw Elvis last night he is getting younger every time i see him looks about 25yrs old now..... he is starting to look a bit Asian also.

says unsold 1.365,000y uss nagoya on Nov 20th low klm Mark2 5spd always are domestic japanese market still and they will pay plenty for them if really good as in this 1 but i think the owner should have sold it at the price it passed in for.

i think if they dont have a least 10yr experiance you should find 1 that does ....

what auction and Auction # i might be able to help.

for non turbo 5spd its possible but they are getting hard to find. if you had slightly better budget i would say would get you better car also less than 80,000klm. cheers, Phil

i recomend buying from Auction thru a broker or source in japan that has reputable info. this way you can order a vehicle on the description colour and choice of options and you can be given a very close cost to landing and complied totals. most decent brokers or exporters can supply you with good quality cars and loads of photos for you to make a good educated buy. unfortunatly buying thru auction you need to trust the exporters experiance and judgement for the right car. Auctions have over 80,000 car per week go thru but people in Japan cannot be at every single auction in Japan for example we are in Osaka region where there is a lot of Auctions daily for us to go to but sometimes the stock is not presant at auctions we attend daily. there are some people who will have access to the Auctions web sites and send you the basic information every night prior to Auctions for your consideration also. cheers Phil

Also the last thing you want to happen is a car to arrive in Australia that has failed Raws compliance so really you need at least a propper Auction grading sheet to determine if it is accident or not. Trade car view sellers cannot inform you this unless the car has a recent legitamite Auction sheet. although we do advertise on Trade car View ourselves thru another company there are some legitmate companys selling there which i can say, but there seems to be a lot of what we call Fishing cars there cars that are listed at cheep prices to attract attention to companies that will sometimes reply and try to get you to buy other stock saying that the original car has sold allready. try to stay away from sellers that only list 2 auction photos and find a japanese company that can physically inspect the car for damage and condition, preferably an Australian that knows how the raws system works. photos alone sometimes dont describe a car very well if they are in low resolution pix. Option 2 , like ben said buy direct at Auction where the cars are always real and have legitamate Auction sheets. Whats ur input Kristian ? i know ur reading....

Wasnt me i can`t smell it yet was it u

Wow we must have both been typing at the same time we replied you just beat me BTW J-spec is Australia's #1 Broker service company, Ben will definatly look after you. great minds think alike and our replies are very similar ... LOL regards, phil

yes correct. 5% is from January. but there is still shipping to arrive this year december for us so in this case maybe 10% is applicable still.

Hi Curley i wouldnt say you just double the FOB fee there is a few calculations you need to do to work out the landed and complied price when you say you have $12,000 does this mean complied and landed or landed only? example car cost 500,000fob = @ 81 exchange rate $6172.00 AUD add shipping say 1200AUD + duty 10% + Gst 10% + customs and quarentine say allow upto $500 if its reinspected and needs a clean + customs agent fee $150 + transport to compliance $150 + $2500 complaince + tyres + registration costs. also allow a bit extra for things extra transport or repairs for the car at compliance or the change of non standard parts etc. total landed complied in a rough example in this case would owe you landed and complied say approx $12,571.00 + registration costs. in my opinion 500,000yen FOB does not buy a nice example ER34 5SPD turbo coupe, it may buy a 5spd non-turbo or an Auto turbo coupe. hope this helps regards, Phil

Tommmo much agreed Yahoo Auctions are in most cases very far from the truth, every dealing from yahoo auctions i have had purchasing cars has cost me money and rufunds if in the event you can get it inspected personaly then it would be an option from yahoo auctions,

Hahahaha i just had to reply to this one i have heard some whoppers in the past but this one is definatly the most outlandish words of Bullshit ...... In Fact if we deregister a car in japan and it has registration left we might even get some small amount of money back. But you did the right thing ask and tho shall find the answer ....... but definatly this is a ripper of a string to pull....

Bassically what theyare looking for is the shaken sho with your name and 1st date of registration to prove when you took ownership. japnese drivers lincense your car park certificate and contract. full copy of your passport to prove you have been in japan for no less than 12 months , you can do trips outside japan its no problem but just minus the days you spent outside japan to calculate the 12 months. insurance documents. invoice for purchasing. and receipt or Bank transfer copy. all these documants provide proof of your legal use of the vehicle whist your living in japan and importantly a lot of dates showing the 1st registration is correct. you can find all the info on the website http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...cles/index.aspx hope this helps
