This 2004 Nissan Stagea AR-X 3.5L Premium wagon was inspected for a client on 24 July 2015. It was a high spec one owner, non smoker vehicle with full black heated leather seats (unusual), sunroof, BOSE stereo with steering controls for the audio. Faults included minor wear on the driver’s seat, small finger nail scratches on some of the buttons etc., marks on shift knob, rust on the strut tower on one side and some surface rust underneath. Scratches on lower plastic trim pieces (not serious). Paint wave noted on lower panels on right side but nothing obvious on inspection. Wheels were in good condition.
It sold at USS Nagoya auction for 475,000 YEN FOB, total price in Australia would be approx. $11,500 complied plus tyres and ORC’s (calculated at a rate of 91 yen to the dollar).
We only source and import the best vehicles with clean and tidy interiors, and only vehicles we would be pleased to own ourselves. This is why we are constantly told by clients that the vehicles we source are well above the condition of most others on the local market.
The pictures are typical of the information we provide prior to auction for each vehicle of interest, with any faults shown so you can clearly see the condition before we discuss whether to bid, and your budget.
Whether you’d like to import a 2004 Nissan Stagea AR-X 3.5L wagon like this one, or another year, make or model, we can find it for you in nice condition.
It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and report to confirm condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without inspection.

Hi Geoff,
Just letting you know that I picked up the Nissan Leaf on Monday, and I am absolutely blown away by the car, it’s incredibly fun to drive.
After receiving it from the compliance workshop I was able to top it off at the mall in Rhodes, and it drove back to Port Kembla with no trouble. It’s so fast off the mark, silent, and I haven’t yet paid a cent for any fuel.
I did get a first-hand feel for Australia’s EV infrastructure after initially going to the NRMA fast charger to find it faulty, then driving to Sydney markets to find that one faulty as well.
If you recall the SOH was 81% but it still gives me 180-190km for a full charge with my regular driving. I’m using L1/2 chargers only since getting it home.
I haven’t had the language changed on the infotainment and it doesn’t pick up local FM, but I can pair my phone for online radio anyway.
Your service was excellent and the process beats buying from a local dealership. I’m sure when I’m looking for my next EV you’ll be hearing from me!
Regards, Ian
