Estimated UK landed cost
By mileage
Each row is a group of recent auction results for this generation. “Typical” is the middle result; low and high mark the cheaper and dearer quarters, so about half of recent cars landed between them.
| Mileage band | Typical year | Typical miles | Typical grade | Low | Typical | High | Results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0k–30k miles | 2024 | 1,000 | 5 | £29,100 | £32,100 | £34,400 | 15 |
Estimate Excludes our service fee. Grades are explained below. Fewer results means a less certain estimate.
Compared with UK prices
| Mileage band | Our typical estimate | Typical UK price | Estimated saving | Cautious estimate | Confidence | UK adverts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0k–30k miles | £32,100 | £48,350 | £16,250 | £12,050 | Medium confidence | 5 |
Typical UK price is the middle asking price of comparable UK adverts, reduced slightly to allow for negotiation. Estimated saving is that figure minus our typical estimate. The cautious estimate assumes you pay towards the top of our range and compare it with the cheaper UK adverts. A negative figure means importing would probably cost more than buying in the UK.
High confidence means we found enough comparable cars on both sides, of similar age and mileage. Medium confidence means one thing makes the match less certain — for example a modest number of adverts, or a gap in typical age or mileage.
Worked example
What’s included in this estimate
Here is how we reach the typical figure for the most common group in recent results: a 2024 car with about 1,000 miles (0k–30k miles). We work backwards from that estimate to the winning bid, then add every cost in order.
- Exchange rate
- £1 ≈ ¥208
- Rate date

Glossary
Auction grades
Every car at a Japanese dealer auction is inspected and given an overall grade, plus a letter for the interior. Scales vary a little between auctions, so treat this as a guide. This price guide only counts cars graded 3.5 or better. A figure such as 4.25 is a middle value that falls between two grades.
The grade is a useful first filter, not the whole story — where it’s available, our export partner in Japan can also inspect the car before the auction.
- 6 or S
- As new, usually with very low mileage.
- 5
- Excellent — close to new condition.
- 4.5
- Very good, with very few marks for its age and mileage.
- 4
- Good, with light marks or wear in keeping with its age.
- 3.5
- Fair — more visible marks, small dents or wear. May need some cosmetic work.
- 3 and below
- Noticeable wear or damage. Not included in this guide.
- R or RA
- Repaired accident damage. Not included in this guide.
- Interior A to E
- A is excellent, E is poor.
