Suzuki WAGON R

Receiving this Suzuki in Sri Lanka was a proud moment for my family. The vehicle arrived in excellent condition and looked even better than the photos. SAT Japan kept me informed during every stage, from auction to shipping, so I never felt worried. The drive is smooth, the cabin is modern, and the fuel economy is perfect for daily use. The quality is much higher than I expected. I truly believe choosing SAT Japan was the right decision, and I will happily recommend them to my relatives.

Subaru FORESTER

Finally received my Subaru Forester and I am loving the vehicle. It has powerful road presence, good ground clearance and enough room for my family. The red colour looks beautiful under sunlight. I drove it on rough road also, and the car remained stable with no shaking. What I liked about SAT Japan was their support during the purchasing process. They did not disappear after receiving payment. Updates were coming until the vehicle reached the port. The Forester arrived in good shape and matched the inspection details. I changed engine oil and filters after collection, then it was ready to drive. Fuel use is little higher than small car, but this is expected from an SUV with all-wheel drive. Overall, very satisfied customer.

Toyota COROLLA AXIO

This Corolla Axio Hybrid surprised me in a very good way. It is quiet, comfortable and using much less fuel than my previous car. The silver colour looks smart and the body condition was better than I expected. Driving is smooth even when sitting in traffic for long time. Before payment, SAT Japan shared car details and auction information, which gave me more confidence. Their staff explained the process in simple way. After arrival, I checked the hybrid system and everything was working correctly. The cabin is clean, air conditioner is cold and seats are comfortable. I can use this car for family, work and long travel without feeling tired. I give high rating because both car condition and buying experience were very good.

Toyota PROBOX VAN

I needed simple and hardworking car, so I selected Toyota Probox from SAT Japan. Honestly, it was a good decision. The vehicle is not luxury, but it is practical, strong and carrying enough goods for my work. Engine starts quickly every morning and suspension is handling our roads better than expected. The shipment tracking helped me to know where the car was during delivery. SAT Japan also provided documents without causing confusion. When car arrived, condition was close to the photos. There were few marks on body, but nothing serious for a working vehicle. Fuel usage is also reasonable. For business person who wants dependable car, this Probox is very suitable. I am pleased with the service and vehicle.

Mazda DEMIO

My Mazda Demio is small car but very enjoyable to drive. Fuel consumption is good and steering feels light, especially inside busy town. The white body was still shining nicely when I received it. Interior also came in fair and clean condition. SAT Japan communication was helpful. They answered my questions about the car and sent the necessary information before shipping. I was little worried because it was my first import, but everything went okay. This Demio is perfect for daily movement and parking is very easy. Only some small scratches were there, which is normal for used vehicle. Overall, I got good value for my money and the car is serving me without problem.

Toyota HIACE VAN

Very happy with this Toyota Hiace. The van arrived looking clean and strong, same condition like I was shown before buying. Engine is running smoothly and there was no strange noise. It has good space inside, so it is useful for business and also carrying many passengers. SAT Japan handled export papers properly and kept me informed about shipment. The vehicle took some time at port, but this was not their fault. After receiving it, I only made normal service and started using it. Hiace is reliable vehicle and parts are easy to find here. I am satisfied with this purchase and hope to order another commercial vehicle from SAT Japan later.

Toyota HIACE VAN

Running transport work requires a vehicle you can trust every day, and this Toyota Hiace has met my expectations. It feels powerful, comfortable, and ready for long-distance travel. One thing I liked about SAT Japan was their communication after payment. They continued giving updates until the vehicle arrived safely, which many companies do not do. I found a few light marks on the loading area, but they are only normal signs of use and have no effect on the van's performance. The overall condition is excellent, and the driving experience is smooth. I am thankful for the service and would confidently recommend SAT Japan to others.

Toyota PROBOX VAN

This Toyota Probox is already helping my daily business. It has enough cargo space, drives well, and the engine feels dependable even after long trips. Before buying, I compared different exporters, but SAT Japan gave me the most confidence because they answered every concern honestly. I noticed the cabin has slight signs of previous use, but that is expected on a used commercial vehicle and does not affect performance. Everything mechanical works perfectly, which is what matters most to me. I appreciate the professional service and quality vehicle. My experience with SAT Japan has been positive from start to finish.

Daihatsu MIRA

I wanted a simple and economical car for everyday driving, and this Daihatsu Mira e:S is exactly what I needed. The fuel consumption is excellent, and parking in busy streets is very easy. SAT Japan kept the buying process straightforward from the beginning until delivery. I never felt confused because their team guided me at every stage. The car has a tiny paint mark near one door, but it is very small and does not change how much I like the vehicle. Overall, the condition is better than I expected. I feel I received real value and would gladly buy through SAT Japan again.
