Keith and the team at the Care Warehouse have been absolutely spot on throughout the process of getting our car. Initially responding quickly to my queries on their stock and process through to after sales care when the car we bought developed a minor fault (we bought a 15 year old car) and the best course of action to fix it with the least impact to us. If you're thinking of importing something interesting to drive I cannot recommend them enough.

First time I have bought an import from Japan and it was German. Keith was very helpful and let us test drive and poke around the car for 90 mins. Everything was straight forward and he made it very easy. Highly recommend a browse of there website. The condition of the cars coming from a place where salt isn't used on the road is unbelievable. Even though more than 10 years old my car is better than a car just several months old in the UK.

People were friendly enough. Just be sure to make an appointment. Didn't get to view the car I was interested in as I just turned up while working near by and didn't have an appointment

I bought a JDM car from them and overall had a very good experience but after a few months of ownership of the vehicle, a lot of issues starting cropping up. Some of them will have been present when the vehicle was first sold to me. Due to the fact that I bought this car during the COVID-19 pandemic, I didn't see the car before buying it. (Yeah, rookie mistake - lesson learned.) The vehicle I bought looked clean on the photos and fair enough it is a nice example however the were a lot of problems which popped up whilst driving the car for the first few months. They are as follows: - The windscreen wipers were ruined - The windscreen washer fluid was like milk - The windscreen washers themselves (front) were not working properly - The boot area has a huge leak (still present) - The car somehow passed the MOT even though the windscreen wipers and washers were pretty much ineffective and there were no advisories - The rear bumper has a metal plate on top to protect the paint when loading the boot, the plate is bent and out of shape and has damaged the paint on the tailgate - The number plates were mounted badly. - The tyres despite having good tread; were 19 years old with a date code of 1401 The most concerning thing about this is how it passed an MOT because it was not roadworthy. This dealership which specialises in imported vehicles should test their vehicles thoroughly before sale to ensure they are fully roadworthy. A rear wheel drive car with 19 year old tyres is a recipe for disaster. Luckily I caught on to it quickly and replaced them without wrapping myself and the car around a lamppost on a wet roundabout. Overall the experience itself was fine but the car had a lot of simple problems which should have been fixed before sale.

These are becoming more and more difficult to find especially in this condition with prices rising quickly Well they are still going up and this is the early boat for these ! 850 RIn the spring of 1996, Volvo introduced a new high-performance Volvo 850 as a replacement for the hugely successful limited edition T5R. Volvo decided there should be no direct successor to the T5R, but due to its success, Volvo decided to develop a new high performance model. The new car, based on the T5R, was called the 850 R, which again came in either saloon or sport wagon editions.The only colours available were Bright Red, Black Stone, Dark Grey Pearl, Dark Olive Pearl, Turquoise Pearl and Polar White. In the U.S. market only Bright Red, Polar White and Black Stone were available. Cream yellow was discontinued for the 850 R. The saloon featured a newly designed rear spoiler; spoiler was now standard on the estate.The interior upgrades included bucket style heavily bolstered sport front seats Alcantara centre with leather bolsters, Alcantara door cards, 2tone leather steering wheel, stainless steel 850 kick plates and R branded over mats. A 200w amplifier was also added to the 8speaker audio system as was the option to have an SC805815 indash CD player (some markets).For a limited time in 1996 only, Volvo offered a new heavy duty manual transmission designed specifically for the 850 R excluding U.S. market, called the M59, which featured a viscous coupling limited slip differential. Furthermore, the M59 equipped cars were fitted with the B5234T4 2.3litre 5cylinder engine featuring a larger TD04HL16T turbo, redesigned turbo manifold & intercooler, unique ecu with Motronic 4.3, uprated fuel pressure sensor and a heavy duty clutch. These modifications enabled the manual transmission cars to produce 250 hp 186 kW and 350 Nm 258 lbft 45 versus 240 hp 179 kW and 330 Nm 243 lbft for the automatic transmission.This vehicle is an ideal investment opportunity , You could put this car away and your money will grow , Classic cars are better investment than property in this current financial climate .We believe we have the best variety of the most unusual cars that you will find in the UKA down payment / Payment of intent will secure this vehicleAll of our vehicles are imported direct from their country by us personally , They are all handpicked and we try to find that special , unique or limited number of produced vehicles , All vehicles are Pre Inspected in Japan and an Export Certificate is always available for viewing, This will show previous mileages in Japan .The advertised prices includes all shipping & Import duties , UK Registration , UK number plates , UK MOT , Oil and filter service , Clear Waxoyl under sealant for protection against UK winters if requested ( free of charge including materials ), 3 Months UK nationwide warranty .
