Hi there guys, Im in the market for a chaser, either in the UK or im open to importing. ive been saving up for ages and am finally getting the money together and will be ready to purchase one in the coming months. Looking for a manual (preferably factory) in any colour. Spec isnt too important however a sunroof would be a nice touch(not essential though). Please let me know if you have anything, or will have anything coming soon. Cheers! Tel: 07927326697 - text or whatsapp me any images or info you may have.
imports are more expensive than buying one over here now. your looking at 12k+ for a clean one. scene tax is real on these
I havent seen one over here for less than £13000, whereas ive seen import companies listing good looking ones for £11500, so tempted to import when the time comes, as long as there arent huge problems and delays due to the virus...
If you're willing to get a JZX110 or the lesser loved Cresta you can still get those for around 11-12k but as the other guy said Chasers and MarkII X100's are getting silly. A guy on JZXWorlds FB page was selling his manual MarkII (JZX110) for like £10,500 two weeks ago so you can try finding him if he's still got it but I think every user was telling him he's mad for letting it go for that price. I think mine was like 14k all said and done with taxes and fee's when TorqueGT imported it. But we're talking about an almost mint pearl white, manual Chaser with a sunroof and a lot of pricey parts etc so very much the top end for a "normal" Chaser. This was also about 14 months ago and prices have only gone up since then.
You can get cheaper in the UK however they're going up in price. Cars from Japan seem to be going up as well. I've just imported a JZX100 MKII Tourer V factory manual from TorqueGT for a pretty penny. Depends what grade and spec you want which will reflect in the price. You can get cheaper ones from other importers but I've found a well known importer on Facebook tends to get in lower grade cars. Nothing wrong with that if you want that but myself wanted a higher grade one with lesser mileage. Each to their own. If you want a really great clean car I can't recommend TorqueGT enough.
thanks for all of your help. Can anyone recommend or vouch for a good import company? Trustworthy and also fairly inexpensive? cheers
TorqueGT but they aren't cheap but will only get you the best car. From my experience stay away from ML Imports, tend to get low grade cars, never replies and I've been told many times he has a poor agent in Japan thus why.
