 |
|
I'm looking to buy a used car, but all the online sites seem to specialize in only exporting cars from Japan.
Are there any reputable auction sites for Japan only or used car dealers in the Osaka area? |

| There are a helluva lot of used car dealers in Sakai! But be aware that the price in the windscreens is far lower than what you'll be paying to get on the road. You'll also need a parking space. My brother picked up a Kei car recently for about 130,000. |

| In my experience a lot of guys from the sub-continent seem to be involved in the second hand car market. Ask around, you should be a ble to pick up a good deal. Don't go through a car yard if you can help it. You can pick up an excellent second hand car for a very good price in Japan, just shop around. The most important point is to check the "shakken". As the previous poster mentioned the off road coasts are the killer. Be aware. |
