I am considering purchase of a Toyota Corolla Verso from Japan. But they dont know which vehicle I am talking about and am told that this may be a vehicle only for the UK Market? Can anyone tell me what this car may be known as in Japan. I really would like to own an import version similar to the UK ones but more extras? Sidkney

I was a trusting Micronet customer until I happen across this newsgroup. I am now a very nervous and worried customer as I am in the middle of what seems to be like the classic stages of being given the run-around. Any advice is much appreciated. Micronet have my deposit and are only slightly overdue so far with the delivery schedule. They have now requested the balance and have given me an "on...

Just found this site on the internet www.escapetheflash.com it has useful information about a product that might help beat speed cameras. What do you think? I think it must be worth a try, less than half the price of a speeding ticket. Done a little research and found some people saying that negative images still show the numbers, but just tried that out using Photo Impact and messed about with...

Hi, I'm asking these questions on behalf of a friend due to him not having net access. He's got the opportunity to purchase a 92/93 (L reg) Toyota Lucida from a local dealer who is apparently picking it up from a dock (Liverpool he believes) on monday. The asking price is £3000 with 67000 miles on the clock. His insurance

Why I didn't do my research... In advance… no excuse... I will post my story soon I don't have time now, but mean while take a look at this: http://www.ebldirect.com/ebl/current_awareness/dataitem.asp?ID=6656&tid=7 It appears that the Loach scum brothers are well known to HM CUSTOMS & EXCISE too I also have some exciting news for all of us MS victims - I will be setting up our own Micronet...

Hi everyone, I was hoping to avoid making a posting here and that Micronet would redeem my lost faith in them. Sadly despite waiting an additional 8 weeks from the original delivery estimate, they have not delivered my car. In good faith i have paid them the total amount yet still the vehicle has not arrived. They refuse to provide any confirmation that the vehicle has been ordered. I...

Could anyone recommend a list of good Jap importers please ? Bulla

Hiya - can anyone help? I have an owners handbook, but I really need a wiring diagram too - does anyone know where I can get one?

I'm considering buying a 'grey' imported car from Japan - I understand that £lots can be saved Who is the best contact/agent in Japan for a Brit to deal with, and what would I be expected to pay for handling/shipping to Southampton? Many thanks Adam H

Recently I've heard plenty about the companies that import all those nice go-faster import cars having to export a percentage of 'normal' (non-superfast!) cars as part of their contract with their Japanese suppliers. Where do these cars end up? I'm looking for one at the moment as a result of my wife needing a new car - where do all the equivalents of 'Starlet', 'Micra', 'Cuore' and such end...

A week ago I ordered a new car through Micronet Showrooms.After a few days I became suspicious about them when they failed to return a signed copy of our agreement or confirm a delivery date and asked me to send a cheque for the 10% deposit via a cheque rather than to use my debit card because they were having "trouble" with their own debit card handling company. I refused to do this and...
