MINI in our auction history. We monitor about 180,000 cars a week across Japanese auction networks. MINI surfaces most often as: Mini. Before a bid goes in we have the auction sheet, the detail photos and the repair history of every car.
Where they surface. In our history MINI comes mostly from HAA Kobe and Kyushu. That matters because every network runs its own beat: USS Tokyo closes Thursdays, HAA Kobe Tuesdays, TAA Yokohama Fridays. We know when to bid and when to walk.
Years and prices. Our MINI records span 2025. Start prices range from 980k JPY to 3M JPY. Those are opening prices, not sale prices. Shipping from Japan is by RoRo vessel to Rotterdam, where the car clears customs; the RoRo versus container trade-offs are in container or RoRo.
History on paper. A Japanese MINI has an inspection on record every two years, so we compare the odometer against documents rather than against a listing; for that we hold 5 such cars in the database.
