From your first enquiry to the day your Jimny arrives — here's exactly how it works, every step of the way.
We operate as an agency importer — you fund the vehicle directly, and we manage the entire import, compliance and preparation process on your behalf.
This keeps costs lower than traditional dealerships and means you're always in control of your money. Every vehicle is sourced specifically for you — we never hold stock we don't own.
Our fee covers our expertise, sourcing relationships, and complete UK preparation. Everything else goes directly into your vehicle.
Traditional importers buy stock speculatively and mark it up. We don't. Our margin is fixed, transparent, and earned through expertise — not inventory risk.
No stock financing cost passed on. You pay for the car, not someone else's warehouse.
Your Jimny is hand-picked based on your exact spec and colour requirements.
You see every cost. No hidden margins, no mystery charges, no end-of-deal surprises.
Step by Step
A typical Japan-sourced Jimny takes 14–18 weeks from reservation to delivery.
Call, WhatsApp, or send a message. We'll discuss model, colour, spec and give you an honest picture of current availability and lead times.
No ObligationWe issue a plain-English client agreement confirming every cost and milestone. A reservation deposit secures your place. The all-in OTR price is locked from this point — nothing added later.
Agreement IssuedWe work with our trusted Japanese suppliers to locate your exact specification. Auction records, mileage history, and condition reports are reviewed. You see photos of your actual vehicle before we commit.
Your Approval RequiredOnce you've approved the vehicle, the second-stage payment releases the purchase. Your Jimny is bought, containerised, and shipped to the UK — approximately 5–6 weeks transit time.
~5–6 Weeks TransitOn arrival, your Jimny undergoes complete UK preparation: IVA approval, NOVA notification, MPH speedometer, Apple CarPlay, rear camera, English dashboard, underseal, MOT, and V5C registration.
~4–6 WeeksFinal balance paid, your Jimny is delivered to your door or collected from Derbyshire. We hand over all documentation, keys and a full handover pack. Road-legal and ready to drive.
