The BHP Imports VIN Check is the one of the leading Japanese vehicle history reports – a vital tool when you're looking to buy a used import or import a car from Japan. A BHP Vin Check removes the guesswork about a vehicle's past – replacing it with impartial, accurate and real-time data from over a dozen sources in Japan from Shaken test stations, Manufacturers and Auction Houses.
When buying an imported car, it can be difficult to determine whether the vehicle is 100% legitimate.
Couldn't recommend highly enough. super easy process. would think importing a car would be difficult but it really isn't. just be patient as it's coming a hell of a long way. absolutely love my new car, wouldn't hesitate to use again.
For anyone who is looking to purchase an imported vehicle, either bought previously or like myself, buying for the first time, I'd highly recommend the lads at BHP Imports.
The service provided by Andy & Baz throughout the import process was second to none. They knew exactly what I was looking for and the car exceeded my expectations upon collection.
The knowledge & passion these guys have on pretty much anything to come out of Japan is first class, and gives the customer peace of mind knowing their investment is in safe hands.
They offered complete assurance that quality is priority, and would not hesitate to pass on examples which they felt weren't up to par.
And not once did they hesitate to answer the many questions I asked, and the process in finding the car, shipping and it landing in the UK was flawless.
There are many options to choose from when it comes to Importers, but in terms of quality, communication and professionalism, look no further than these guys. Their reputation & previous import history speaks for itself.
I'm already looking forward to many more future purchases with Andy & Baz, but for now, time to enjoy my new RX-7.
Thanks lads
Imported R34 GTR V-specII back early last year 2015. Visited other importers before settling on using BHPimports. The cost for doing the work involved to get the car from Japan was great and extremely clean and in great condition! Would use again which I exactly did the start of this year in the hunt for a Honda NSX! Andy found me the perfect one a manual red UK car, so two rare and perfect examples i have now recieved. Roll on the third rare car maybe a 1972 skyline GTR...
I used bhp imports after a few friends recommended them. After the first coversation it was clear this was the company to use andy/ baz knowledge of jdm cars is unreal. I was after something for a dailly so we decided the accord cl7 euro r would be the best choice. After a few weeks i had already won my car and was informed at every step of the way. Had the car a few weeks and im not dissapointed. I would recommend any other company for importing a car. They were a pleasure to deal with start to finish.
I decided to use Andy @ BHP Imports to source me an R34 GTR on a reasonably 'strict' budget. Andy did not disappoint, i am now in possession of a VERY clean and well looked after R34 fresh off the boat. I have a few other Japanese cars on the 'to do' list so will definitely use again!
The guys Andy and Baz have a lot of import knowledge and work so hard to deliver what the customer wants. They are always contactable to answer questions whether it be for parts or cars. I have purchased a lot of car parts through them over the last 8 months but yesterday i collected my 23k mile 1st gen Honda CRV time capsule from Andy in Newcastle. The thing is so clean and their effort to make sure it was the right car was huge. The car was prepped to the highest standard. Most importantly my family and I love it, no doubt it will be running for another 19 years.
Bhp Imports imported my dream car, an r34 gtr in bayside blue. Right from the start Andy was open and honest about everything, informing me of the various points of importing a car and answered any questions I had. Throughout the process and transit of the car there were no hidden fees or extras added on without me knowing. Everything was exactly as he had explained to me when we first met and always stayed in contact. I couldn't rate BHP Imports higher and if anyone is interested in importing a vehicle I would back them 100%. Excellent company. Excellent bloke. Excellent service.
Extremely professional and friendly service from Andy and Baz. Excellent contact through out and knew exactly what I was looking for in an R34. They came up trumps with a fantastic specimen of one too. Swift delivery and service, and when on collection the car was even better then expected. Will be using Andy and Baz in the future.
Top service from BHP Imports got my kakimoto regu 06&R exhaust for my DC5 love the system told me it was the best system out there for a honda if you don't want it too loud would highly recommend to get parts or cars from them I certainly will in the near future
Highly recommend Andy and Baz if you are looking to import a car from Japan or source parts. I began communicating with them last Summer to begin a search for an R34 GTR. Baz kept me updated daily with what was going through auctions each week sending me any cars that might fit the bill. I had a spec in mind and patience paid off as they were able to source me a Bayside Blue V Spec 2. This was despite me only expecting to find a base model within my budget. The car needed a little bit of work to get it up to a standard we were both happy with but this was no trouble for BHP. They went above and beyond and addressed everything I asked them to. Needless to say I am over the moon with the end result and the wait was well worth it. Big thanks guys, I now have my dream car!
After trying to source some Endless brake discs and pads from supposed 'specialists' without success, BHP came up trumps. Great price, very swift delivery from Japan and superb communication throughout. A massive thumbs up for a top quality company. A recent house purchase means that my plans to import another JDM vehicle are on ice for the moment. But when that time comes, it's going to be BHP all the way!
The best importer in England, the level of care is next to none. They will happily go out of their way to help you and that's rare in this line of work. I have an amazing car thanks to them and even though I'm at the other end of the country ill always use bhp imports.
Andy and Baz are very helpful and keep you informed all the way through. Car was just what we wanted - took a while to get here but was worth it in the end. Thank you.
I've imported 3 cars with BHP Cars now and every time they are in fantastic condition. The team in Japan know their stuff when it comes to the cars and Andys service once the car lands in the UK is second to none. Your car will be ready for the UK roads without having to worry about anything else (e.g undersealing, servicing, clock changes). People worry about importing a car from another country but in my experience I've had less complications with the cars than the UK ones. When it comes to buying another car I'll be heading straight back to BHP cars.
I imported a skyline through Andy @ BHP and found overall service to be effective and professional throughout. Answering any questions I had along the way. After finding the right car, all paperwork was taken care of swiftly and easily. I found it very easy to communicate properly and am a very happy customer. Highly recommended.
Over the last 5 years we have seen many JDM models more than double in value. Through our historic sales data it is now possible to track sales prices of various models from our select auction houses.
