Shaun and Trent and the team are keen to talk cars with anyone to help them discover exactly what type of vehicle they want. That led to Shaun becoming an Import 2 Order franchisee for central Auckland and south, which he and Meets Patel run from premises in Virginia Avenue East in Auckland city’s Eden Terrace. Trent had the contacts and network for finding and assessing great cars in Japan, while Shaun had an extensive network of loyal customers and a knack for finding more. Talking to founder Trent Craig they discovered they were on the same wavelength, and that they had mutual skills they needed for this fast-growing specialist market. Shaun became involved first as a customer when he decided to seek out great examples of the Japanese domestic market (JDM) cars that had inspired his life-long passion. The Import 2 Order website already shows a list of testimonials from a range of happy customers because this is an established business.

Matching the right cars with the right people offers him a double bang of happiness which he is now putting to good use in his new car import business, Moses Machines Import 2 Order. It was inevitable he would move into the car business, and there he discovered his other passion, which was using his deep knowledge and love of his favourite cars to help other people find the cars that were right for them. At age eight he was already one of those car nuts who could identify every car on the road from a glimpse of the corner of a window frame. Shaun (right) and Meets know their JDM cars
