Brandon 12 Report post Posted April 19, 2022 Hi guys, has anyone here imported a BMW from Japan? Having a look at auctions at the moment, prices are obviously attractive as is but once you factor in freight, on roads, compliance etc etc, do you still end up better off? Good/bad experiences? Risk/reward ratio? Seems like a fun idea on paper but I feel as though everyone would be doing it if it straight forward. any feedback from anyone who’s gone through this process would be appreciated! cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add another 3k on top for the recently introduced "you're not buying a half dead Nissan Leaf" tax. The auctions are still a huge risk if you are buying blind. But they are much better than they were 10 years ago. Best to go via an agent that will take on some of the liability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
