Import Agent trustworthy?

I am thinking of importing a used Lexus RX hybrid, and I have come across the website of Algy's Motors, Bristol.

Do you have any knowledge of this company, and should I do business with them?

They are good. But obviously you wont be able to import much from Japan within the next 12 months or so because of the ports being damaged in the earthquake and Tsunami.
