We're rounding off a fantastic summer with more kei car features and a look at the new Honda Super N, which won our approval. We've also restocked the showroom with JDM cars and handed over plenty of Japanese imports to our Personal Import Service customers. Take a look below.
Special Feature - The Super N
It's Fun and Affordable But...
The new Honda Super N is a quirky, fully electric take on the N-One kei car. With a range of around 120 miles it won't suit everyone, which is where the N-One RS comes in. It's the turbocharged 660cc kei car the Super N was born from, and it's just as happy covering longer distances as it is darting around town.
Showroom Arrival - Mugen RZ
Honda Mugen RZ
No.113 of just 300 examples, the Honda CR-Z Mugen RZ is a rare sight even in Japan, let alone here in the UK.
Imported by Torque GT in 2024 as a grade 5 example with just 3,800 miles on the clock, this 2013 RZ has now covered just 18,570 miles.
Fresh Import Feature - Alto Works
Suzuki Alto Works
With fuel prices up, a constant war on vehicle speeds and parts and labour costs rising, a kei car makes more sense than ever. The Suzuki Alto Works offers plenty of fun without the running costs.
This 2016 Alto Works came via our Personal Import Service and is a grade 4.5 car with 45,700 miles. As the front wheel drive variant, it weighs just 670kg, making it the lightest version of Suzuki's most serious kei car.
Handovers
Toyota GR86 Ridge Green
We've just imported another GR86 Ridge Green Edition from Japan, one of only 200 built. This one is a 2024 car with under 4,000 miles on the clock.
With so few in the UK, we reckon most have come through our import service, and it's fast becoming the GR86 edition to have!
Honda N Box Custom
The Honda N Box is one of Japan's best selling cars, so when this 2017 N Box Custom arrived as a Personal Import, we took the chance to find out what makes this quirky kei car so popular.
Lexus LX570
Based on Toyota Land Cruiser architecture, this 2017 Lexus LX570 is a luxury eight seat SUV with an arsenal of off road tech and an enormous 5.7 litre V8. Imported as a grade 4 example with what seems like every possible spec option, you wouldn't believe it's almost ten years old.
Showroom Spotlight
Sunrise Yellow Spec C
Finished in Sunrise Yellow, a colour exclusive to the Spec C, this STI is one of the last great JDM performance bang for buck buys.
Imported by us in 2021 as a grade 4 example. Find out the price and full mod list on our showroom page.
Coming to the Showroom
Import No-Brainers
One of September's standout auction buys is this grade 4.5 manual GR Corolla. These can be picked up for less than a UK Gen 2 GR Yaris, and with more practicality and added rarity it's well worth considering instead.
We also picked up this grade S Jimny Nomade, still showing delivery mileage. It comes in cheaper than a used UK three door Jimny, and with Nomades available from £25,000 you get a lot more car for the money, plus two extra doors.
Parts News
Soft99 Glaco
With the wetter months rolling in, now's a good time to discover Glaco rain repellent. It helps water bead off your windscreen, improving visibility and reducing glare from oncoming LED headlights. Shop the easy to apply range and be ready for whatever the weather brings.
Link Price Reduction
Everything seems to be getting more expensive lately, so it's nice to tell you something's got cheaper!
We've dropped the price on the full G4X Wire-In range, most G4X Plug-Ins, the DI-Driver 4 and CAN Lambdas.
Spoon Carbon Seats
You may have spotted on our socials that we've been resharing content from @spoon_fl5 as he steadily transforms his Honda Civic FL5 into a predominantly Spoon Sports build. His latest addition is a set of Spoon carbon Kevlar bucket seats, a serious upgrade that shows real dedication to the project.
