Thinking of a Suzuki Swift or Mazda 2, they all seem to be Japanese imports. Any info re part’s availability etc greatly appreciated

Fairly sure those are only built in Japan so there should be no issue with parts. They’ll be the same as Irish market models.

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

Think European Swifts are built in Hungary, but there’ll probably be more JDM than Irish ones around soon.

There’s already more autos than manuals here so theres a chance there is more Japs than Irish, or close to 50/50 at least
