This purple 2010 Nissan Elgrand E52 Highway Star 350 2WD 3.5L model with 75,305 kms was inspected for a client at USS Tokyo auction on 29 September 2016.
Options included dual power slide doors, front and rear parking sonar, factory around view monitor and TV, traction control, rear TV screen and full leather seats.
Overall condition was good and consistent with a used but well maintained vehicle. Interior roof lining had some minor stains and marks. Seats were all in nice condition (two dark spots on the driver’s seat were just water from the rain on auction day).
Of specific note was the fact that this Elgrand was fitted with snow tyres and was from an area about 2 hours north of Tokyo known for having a decent amount of snow. As a result there was some obvious surface rust on the underbody. While still acceptable for SEVS compliance as it mostly affected items like the exhaust and lower components not the body itself, it did reduce the otherwise attractiveness of this car.
A set of spare wheels with regular road tyres was included in the back.
It passed in and didn’t sell having not reached the reserve price, last bid was at 1.645 million yen FOB equivalent.

Hi Geoff,
Just wanted to drop you an email to say a big thank you!! I have had the Soarer now for almost a month and it is wonderful!!
I’m getting a stereo put in soon which should be good.
The whole process with you was ace – everything ran really smoothly and on time. All the people/companies involved were terrific and I’m going back to the same workshop for a service soon. They were all so customer focused and delivered great services.
Thanks so much for all your help, guidance, and assistance over the past months. I’ve got the coolest car now!!
A few people who drive Soarers or are interested in them have been really impressed with the car and also the import process with you!! I’ve already recommended you to my family / friends if ever they decide to import a car!
Thanks a lot 🙂
Cheers, Aimee
