My car’s been left standing on the way over here, will this cause a problem?You might be worried about your car during the transit associated with Japanese car import. Any car that is left standing for an amount of time may need to have the battery charged, but this really is a relatively simple job. There’s a good chance you will have been given a lift to the docks or perhaps you’ve brought a fleet of mates with you to have a look at your new pride and joy. Just make sure you bring some jump leads or a car battery charger with you and you won’t have any problems getting your car started and running. Perhaps you’re worried about the condition of your car before and after transit. That is, you’re convinced that something is going to go wrong and you’re going to receive a car that has a nasty, big scratch down the side or worse. This just isn’t the case. Every care is taken to ensure that the vehicle reaches you in precisely the state it was sold to you in. Photographs should be provided of the car from all angles and if there is any damage before it leaves port in Japan, this should be photographed and detailed to you. This way when it arrives in the UK you can ensure that there is no damage or no further damage and you are getting exactly what you paid for with no nasty surprises. The only surprises in Japanese car importing should be pleasant surprises. Apart from the possible need to charge your battery, your car should reach you in a state that means it is ready to drive. There should be at least a little petrol in the tank, enough to enable you to get to a garage or MOT test centre at the very least. Reputable Japanese car import companies will want your return business, and so they should try their utmost to ensure that your needs are met. If there is a problem with the car that you weren’t expecting or you weren’t told about then you should query this straight away with either the shipping company or the import company. That way every measure can be taken to ensure something is done about it. Neither the shipping company nor the export company wants to be liable to pay for shipping the car back to Japan, or to pay for any required fixes so it is in their best interest that the car arrives with you in the condition you are expecting.
