ZARA AUTOS LTD · JAPANESE IMPORT SPECIALISTS
A vehicle built for Japanese roads arrives with a km/h speedometer, a nearside-only fog light and headlights that dip the wrong way for UK traffic. Missing any one of these is one of the most common reasons an import fails its first IVA attempt.
We carry out the speedometer conversion, fog light fitting and lighting modifications your specific model needs, prepared correctly the first time rather than patched together to scrape through a retest.
Every import starts with an inspection against its actual specification rather than a generic list, because what a Prius Plus/Alpha needs is not what a Voxy or an Estima needs. Where your import also requires IVA testing and DVLA registration, we prepare it for that stage too, so the whole journey from Japanese-spec to UK road-legal happens under one roof.
A proper, permanent mph conversion rather than a temporary sticker that won't pass inspection.
Dial replacement or a calibrated conversion unit fitted to display accurately at low and high speeds alike.
A correctly positioned rear fog light fitted to UK regulations, not an afterthought bolted on.
A full check against UK construction and use requirements before your vehicle goes anywhere near a test centre.
Headlight and indicator adjustments so your import's lighting meets UK standards without dazzling oncoming traffic.
A thorough inspection of your specific model, so we know exactly what it needs before any work begins.
Your vehicle prepared against the full IVA checklist, reducing the risk of an avoidable failure and a repeat test fee.
