Japan Inspecters

[Restless 33]

just wondering if anyone knows people in japan that check out cars you are about to buy and give u a proper report that they garantee against or something like that. thanks

Unless you were always buying from a specific auction (say "USS" in Osaka) I don't see how you can get someone to check the car out? I take it you're talking about some kind of "RAC" check?

I mean, thats what the auction grading system is there for. Hell, I could got and check the car out if it's in Kobe or Osaka, but I'd need to talk to the guy who bid for the car on your behalf, so if that was the case he could do the check for you...

have I got the wrong idea?

nah u have the right idea. this guy is buying it from a saleguys who he deals with. but i want something that checks the engine and gearbox etc. just so i know it all runs well the guy isn't providing the depth of info i want before buying it. the info on the car is in another post "wat wud u pay" if u wanna check it out. i wud be looking for something like an RACV test just to make sure it runs properly. unbiased third party kinda thing

well after my effort of importing i dont have a huge amount of faith in the grading syystem... not sure which auction site eg uss etc but they said they had a black s2 97 40,000kms etc imacculate everything auction grade 4.5 only to have it inspected and it was rusted in one of the wheel arches... definatly get someone to look at it for you...
