I picked up the car late last week & it's been an absolute dream!!!
The guys at Import Factory even said it was easily one of the best they've seen inside & out (there is not a spec of rust anywhere!!), which I'm guessing they've had a fair share come through their doors!

Once I got it home & gave it a good wash inside & out, I was in disbelief at the condition of the car, it's easily one of the cleanest I've seen myself & have had many compliments on the car!

So I just want to say a massive thank you & I hope you know how much I appreciate the work you did for me, I couldn't be happier!!!

I'll be sure to send anyone I know who is considering importing straight to you.

Thanks again mate, you're a legend!!!!

The J-Spec Mileage Promise

Speedo tampering is rife in the Australian market to the point where more imports than not sold by Australian dealers have had their mileage wound back. See how importing yourself easily avoids this pitfall.
