Hi Lee

When you used them did you put down the £500 deposit they were aksin 4 just spoke to one of there sister companies down in essex and i must admit she did seem very friendly and will do what you ask them to.

Did you actually bid on a car using them or even better has anyone ever brought a car through them. Probally going to use bonsai cars again as he was pretty good last time but just looking to see whats about.

Bna_ellis what site do u use to get your car\'s though im not lookin at setting up an import business to rival you just want to import one myself again like i did last time.

The way i did this before was by viewing the cars that are at the actual auction via a website so would like to do this again rather then tell someone what im after and they see if they can find it as i do like seeing something and thinking that will do me nicely.

Thanks

Mark,

I never placed a bid or put down a deposit, but I did email them a couple of times with question and queries and they were always quick and helpful in getting back to me.

I did find that many of the cars were also on the Bonsai site, and that Bonsai was a bit more use friendly.  I think ISIBIKE is more geared up towards traders than Bonsai.

I have never used isibike but I do know that their cars have a 100,000 higher starting price than what is listed at the auction site. Maybe this is because it includes their commission? Other than that I know they seem to be a good company. I do not know of a company that does not require 100,000 yen deposit first. I have viewing of cars via different companies although I only tend to buy through one due to be good friends with someone that works there.

yeah i think i will just use bonsai again as i have a pretty good relationship with him the main reason i was lookin was to see if any othe site had access to other autions that bonsai may not.

Thanks 4 all your help

I wouldn\'t bother with that white one you showed interest in it\'s another damage repaired car forsale. I\'ve seen a pic of it earlier at the auction hall. Grade 0 jobby it\'s been resprayed in white it\'s not the original colour & mileage is probably alot higher has it has aftermarket speedo gauges.

no i dont think i will just had another look at it and it does look more hassle then it\'s worth as the alloy\'s looked all knackered too. do want a cheap do\'er upper though but not that badly done. The main thing im after is diff front bumper, spoiler, wheel, suspension, and thats about it. will look at the auctions tonight and see whats going on. from what i remember friday auctions used to have the most modded cars on is that still the case.

Not  particulary it\'s spread throughout really. You might wanna give mark a call as he has a few fd\'s in stock at the mo I know one of them should be pretty quick with same front end as the white one. has ecu intercooler etc etc I know because I bidded on the car and was out gunned then when I was at bonsai recently I saw it there.

Thanks Again all been well should have it here by rotorstock and japfest well finger crossed.

Mark runs  Bonsai. Christian runs babarian but some how in some shape or form they are kind of the same company all intertwined.
Bonsai have more than one office aswell i\'m on about the one at southampton docks next svauk ltd.

yeah now you say that it was mark who i delt with first thinking back i think mark went on holiday and then i\'ve delt with christophe ever since. i\'ll give them a bell when i go for a fag in a min and ask them about that one with the ecu and bits.
