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.
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!
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.
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.
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!
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.
Got a few cars from Andy and Baz, made the process of importing easy and great down to earth guys with knowledge on all things jdm and more.
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!
CL7 Accord Euro R. Andy and Baz kept me well informed throughout the process. Yes its a chore waiting, but unavoidable if you choose this route. It is worth it though. I got pretty much everything I asked for. This time last year it was going through the registration process, and the MOT is due in a couple of days. It sailed through today with no issues!!! Favourable comments received all around regarding the condition and cleanliness. 12 months on and I still very happy with the vehicle, and the service I received.
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...
Just had an Alto Works imported by Andy and Baz and couldn't be happier with the car, service and the knowledge - really pleased with the inspection and photos supplied before bidding too. Very in depth, they wouldn't let you import a bad vehicle. I was advised which auction houses to keep an eye on to secure the car in the condition I was looking for.
I'm really impressed with the quality and condition of the car now that it's finally in my possession - it's almost production line clean if it weren't for wear on the tyres!
Despite some minor teething issues with the speedometer for the IVA test, (I'm pleased with the results of that suggestion
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
I recently sourced a front pipe from Japan through BHP Imports. From the initial discussions, through to ordering, paying and finally taking delivery, the process was completely smooth sailing. I can thoroughly recommend their service.
Unfortunately I wasn't aware of BHP Imports when I purchased my current car however after a few recent conversations with Andy I took advantage of the offer to have a comprehensive Japanese report produced. The report included history on all of the promised details along with photo's of the car going through the auction house, this will no doubt be an invaluable addition to the cars history and I'll have no hesitation whatsoever in using Andy and his team for my next JDM vehicle purchase, an absolute pleasure to deal with.
Andy at Bhp Imports helped me find and import my 1996 Toyota chaser and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided, every question I asked and anything I had worries about he made sure it was all fine, a genuine bloke who loves what he does, couldn't have asked for a more sound guy to help me find a chaser, highly recommend! Great service!
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.
