South West Imports is a family run business providing low volume, high quality JDM cars. Attention to detail is our number one priority. We offer a comprehensive service which includes every necessary action for your car to become UK road legal and dropped off at your front door. With access to up to 150,000 cars at auction a week and more at JDM dealerships, finding your dream car may not be as hard as you thought. I recently purchased a Yamaha tzr 125 Belgarda (in stunning condition) from this company.
Services
The first step to importing your dream car is to contact us. After getting in touch a member of our team we'll be able to advise you a price, a time frame and other important information on your chosen vehicle. Once we've located a vehicle matching your requirements a full translation of the auction sheet along with an inspection* by a member of our team will be provided.
There are a range reasons why so many people choose to import vehicles from Japan. Condition and quality of the vehicles tend to be far greater than your average car in the UK. Its not uncommon to see cars 10 years old+ that have only covered 6,000 miles per year. Infrastructure such as Motorways and A roads are to a much higher standard, which over time causes less stress on vital components.

I recently purchased a Yamaha tzr 125 Belgarda (in stunning condition) from this company. The service was first class with great communication. Just before my courier was to pick up the bike I had a missed call and then a message from Will asking me to give him a bell. There was a problem with the carb. He had it fix at a local garage before sending it out. It may have set delivery back a little but well worth the wait. A good honest seller I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from them again.

I found the idea of privately importing a car from Japan extremely daunting. However, I had my sights locked onto a Honda Integra DC5 & having done a reasonable amount of research I had a clear idea of what I wanted spec wise. I contacted several of the more well known companies that handle Japanese car imports & whilst I wasn't displeased with their responses, they didn't offer what I wanted.
That's when I stumbled across Will at South West Imports & more or less immediately I felt like I was in good hands. Will always responded very quickly to my emails & straight away set about finding a car that matched my criteria. To cut a long story short, a suitable car was found within a month & the export/import process began. The whole thing took roughly 5 months from start to finish & was surprisingly straightforward.
The car was delivered to my house on a low-loader & on first inspection I was very pleased. I've now owned the car for nearly 6 months & I'm happy to report that I've had no issues with it.

I'd been searching for a EP3 CTR for some while when I stumbled across one for sale from these guys. The advert contained a huge amount of info and a lot of high-quality photos. Needless to say the car was just as good as it appeared online. Communication was good, and any questions I had were promptly answered.
