Japan Now Powers Ireland's Used Car Market | Belfast News

The Irish used car market just flipped upside down—after Brexit, UK imports dried up, and Japan swooped in, now supplying over half all used cars. But it’s not just Toyotas: German luxury brands like BMWs and Mercedes, originally sold new in Japan, are flooding in. Thanks to Japan’s ultra-strict Shaken inspection, these cars are in mint condition with low mileage. Why? Japanese owners trade in their cars early and treat them like family. So if you’re hunting for a high-quality used ride, check the auction sheet and history report—you might snag a gem that’s younger than its plate suggests.
