Why we stocked this car
A clean, low-mileage A1 that ticks the boxes we look for. It has genuinely low mileage for its age, and it's an automatic - which makes it one of the most popular choices for first-time drivers. Like most Japanese imports, it's reliable and rust-free thanks to Japan's drier climate and the way cars are looked after over there.
What you should know about Japanese imports
Imports are usually flagged on listings but rarely explained - here's the honest picture so you can buy with confidence.
Lower mileage
Cars in Japan are typically driven far less, so imports often have genuinely lower mileage than UK cars of the same age. On our cars, this is verified against the official export certificate.
Rust-free
Japan uses far less road salt and has a drier climate, so imports avoid the underbody rust common on older UK cars.
Well maintained
Japan has a strong culture of caring for cars, and a strict inspection system (shaken) keeps them in genuinely good condition.
Same spec, insures the same
The models we stock are standard cars - mechanically and structurally identical to their UK versions - so they insure and service exactly like the UK equivalent.
Things to be aware of
- A freshly imported car has just one UK MOT so far - completely normal, as it's only just arrived.
- The original service and ownership documents are Japanese. We're happy to talk you through them.
- We'd always encourage you to come and inspect the car in person - you're welcome to bring someone who knows cars.
Service history
As a Japanese import, the car comes with its export certificate showing its mileage history and records from Japan. (See the "What you should know about Japanese imports" section below for more on how import history works.)
Ideal for
First-time drivers and new licence-holders after a premium small car that's easy to drive (automatic), cheap to run, and reliable. Also a great second car or city runabout.
