Established in mid-2002 based in the North East of England; 10 miles from Newcastle City Centre.
Here at JM Imports Newcastle based in the North Easts we have established ourselves as Europe’s Leading Tuning and Performance centre, at JM we can cater for any High Performance or Prestige vehicles with full on-site workshop facilities and tuning using our State-of-the-Art Link Dyno from Dyno JET or Main Line PRO HUB Dyno. Please browse our new website to see what services we can offer your vehicle.
One of the Reasons JM was created was, I myself was looking for a particular car from Japan with the right modifications on it and also for the right price, unfortunately, nobody local did this and if they had any in stock their condition was not as described or matched my expectations.
We vary rarely travel to Japan now, I just send an email or call my contacts regarding particular cars in Japan from either the auctions, dealerships or private sellers, I then trust him to inspect the cars and provide me with an honest description of the car which then I will bring to the UK and the JM team will then service, repair and prepare to the highest standard possible so customers can get cars with no hidden faults or extra prices.
We currently try to keep around 20 cars in stock for sale at all times at our premises, this is excluding the cars we import for private customers for the UK or overseas that have been ordered specifically for them via our Personal Import Service – Be sure to check that out.
JM-Imports stock cars are hand picked by myself and my sales team and I try to have almost every niche of cult sports car, from a superbly maintained stock example all the way to a highly modified 1500bhp cars.
In June 2020 we open the doors on our new premises at Benton on the edge of Newcastle. Here we have a bigger workshop and storage facility to cater to tuning, servicing, repairs, upgrades and preparing all of our stock and our customer’s cars to new levels from JDM Sports cars to Supercars.
One of the reasons my business has remained strong in this bad economy is that we sell cars I would be happy to own and drive myself, please feel free to make appointment and visit us, you will not be disappointed with the quality of stock we import or the services we offer here at JM were quality is the KEY.
