He is an avid rugby fan and over the years has been very kind to the foreign players at Kurita rugby team and (among other things) assisted with sending cars back to New Zealand. Tanaka San has decided the time is right to increase this activity. Particularly with a high New Zealand dollar it is a good time to ship cars back to New Zealand rather than funds. This web site has been set up to share
information and should be of particular interest to those who have the need to transfer funds back to their own countries. If you are considering this it is important to buy well and buy a car that is popular in your own country. Tanaka feels that through his experience and the sharing of information by customers through this page the best results can be achieved for everyone. Tanaka San is viewing auctions as part of his business in Japan anyway so this is just an add on business. He will claim the sales tax from the Japan side for his payment so not affecting the price you pay at auction. In exchange for this he will offer advice, purchase the vehicle and arrange shipping. All of the associated fees, of course, will be paid by the customer. If you have friends who may be interested please send their details to us and we will send them an invitation. Please don't share the price information as the auctions are only for dealers and is sensitive information for the domestic market. Oh, my name is Kim Browne and am coaching at Kurita and have decided to give Tanaka San a hand in setting this up. I think that covers it for now. Please feel free to ask any questions and add any feelings or experiences you have had in exporting you cars home. Speak to you soon......
