The user-friendly interface for participating in these auto auctions is provided in English language. \"So far online Japanese car auctions were available only to Japanese people as most of these auctions have interface only in Japanese language.

With this new service, used car importers around the world will now able to buy used cars directly from Japanese used car auctions, thus saving significant amount of money. All major Japanese auto auctions including USS, Bay AUC, LAA, HAA, HAA Kobe, TAA, Isuzu U-Max, CAA, JAA, Honda are supported in this auction system. Every week over 120,000 cars available in this online auctions.
Japan is one of the best places to buy used cars and trucks, because cars in Japan are very carefully maintained and have less wear and tear as the Japanese roads are one of the best in the world. Also the Japanese government policy discourages people to own cars more than 5-6 years. Car owners have to comply with \"shaken\" (technical car examination) system - the older the car is the more \"shaken\" tax you have to pay. Basically this system encourages people to buy new cars since shaken taxes increase with the age of the car. And lastly repair costs in Japan are very high, making customers buy a new car rather than repairing a damaged car even if it is easily repairable, has low mileage or in a good technical condition. Thus Japan a very attractive used car market where you can buy good quality used automobiles in used auto auctions all over Japan. With the new auction service of Shiotsu Autotrade, car dealers and importers worldwide will be able to buy Japanese used cars online without language barriers.
