We bid for you at Japan's biggest car auctions, win the exact model, colour and spec you choose, then handle shipping, customs, VRT and Irish registration — delivered to your door, ready to drive.
Japan keeps the world's best-maintained, lowest-mileage cars — and sells them through transparent, independently graded auctions. We give you the key to that market.
You buy at live auction wholesale — no Irish forecourt markup. Many clients land their car for less than the local retail price, even after shipping, VRT and our fee.
Want a midnight purple, a factory two-tone, or a trim Ireland never officially got? Japan has it. We hunt the exact colour and specification you've been searching for.
Japanese drivers cover few kilometres and service obsessively. Strict "shaken" roadworthiness culture means clean, rust-free cars that are years ahead of their age.
Every car comes with an independent auction inspection sheet — graded, mapped and honest. You see condition, faults and history before a single euro is bid.
Over 150,000 vehicles cross Japan's auction floors every week. JDM legends, 8-seat MPVs, hybrids, kei cars, campers — selection Ireland simply can't match.
Bidding, export docs, shipping, customs clearance, VRT, NCT and Irish plates — handled by one team who does this every week. You just choose and collect.
You tell us the dream. We make it road-legal in your name on an Irish plate.
Tell us the model, colour, spec and total budget. We set a realistic landed-cost target and source live listings.
We review auction grade sheets, advise you, and bid on your behalf — disciplined, to your cap, no emotional overpaying.
De-registration, export paperwork and ocean freight to an Irish port — RoRo or container, fully tracked and insured.

Irish reg assigned, plates fitted, motor tax sorted — then the keys are in your hand, ready to drive.
Importing isn't only about saving money — it's access to vehicles that quietly solve real problems for real people.
Alphard, Vellfire, Noah & Serena — spacious, reliable people-carriers that are scarce and pricey on the Irish market.
Low-emission Aqua, Prius and Leaf imports mean cheaper fuel and lower Irish motor tax bands.
Mazda Bongo and HiAce camper builds — Ireland's adventure favourites, sourced straight from source.
Factory WAV vans from Japan offer mobility and independence at a fraction of converted local prices.
25-year-eligible JDM icons are appreciating assets — drive something you love that holds its value.

Move the figures to see roughly what your car will cost on the road in Ireland — no surprises, no pressure.
★ Indicative estimate only. Our concierge fee is set automatically from the car's value, with Irish VAT at 23% added on top. Actual VRT is set by Revenue from the car's Irish OMSP, CO₂ and NOₓ; duty/VAT on the car depend on the import route and your status. We give you an exact, itemised quote before you commit a cent.
