About Next Car Sale
The UK's premier destination for authentic Japanese import vehicles. Where passion meets expertise, and dreams become reality.
Our Journey
Founded in 2008 by automotive enthusiast James Mitchell, Next Car Sale began as a passion project to bring the finest Japanese import vehicles to UK shores. What started as a love for JDM culture has evolved into the UK's most trusted Japanese import specialist.
Our journey started with a single Nissan Skyline GT-R imported from Japan. James recognized that UK enthusiasts deserved access to authentic, high-quality Japanese vehicles that weren't available through traditional channels. Today, we've imported over 2,500 vehicles and helped countless customers realize their automotive dreams.
We've built lasting relationships with trusted suppliers across Japan, ensuring we can source the rarest and most sought-after vehicles while maintaining the highest standards of quality and authenticity.
