You can outdo Paul Palmer who imported his car with a very good overall cost.

 

[ZXSpectrum]

WOW... How much would it be to import it? VERY interested...

 

[davewilkins]

I think Paul said that is cost him £600 to import. I presume older cars are easier to SVA?

 

[ZXSpectrum]

I am VERY interested in this car... Will speak to you tonight...

 

[ZXSpectrum]

By the look of it Mate it looks like a misprint... Probably 300,000 Yen Which is about £1600 It looks and from the details mint i could not see that going for much less than that... Draxx Bought that R32 GTS For About £1000 Would be nice though...

Misprint

You are probably right. Are you going to ask them!? Do you want the url for babelfish

I just imported my car... was about £500 postage, and vat+import duty 27.5% added onto the total cost of car and shipping... my car was £900 (93 GTS25, non turbo) and total into this country came to just under two grand...

That car is 89... so wont need an SVA, just an MOT...

happy buying...

£160

Have investigated this further, It's Golden week in Japan, which means everyting shuts down, But I have been told that the car is sold, but not updated. Anyway it was 30,000 yen, but the sting is that you have to pay afurther 90,000 for transportation and for documentation, then theres shipping costs and VAT plus import duty, so It is still fairly resonable, but you never know what you are buying until it gets here. By then you could have paid £1,300 for a pile of junk. So the theory is if it looks to good to be true, then is probably is.

No I didn't ZX!!!

I didn't buy that R32 for 1000 from Talat, as far as I know he's still got it, I went for the GTS4 and I would have been xtra chuffed if Ide bought it for 1000 quid......sadly not!!

Speak to Talat Paul he might still have it, well his mate might anyways!!

We'll have to have a bit of a midland meet somewhere soon, then we can all meet up and have a laugh.... let me know what u think, and where you think...

Draxx

 

[paul palmer]

Meet

Draxx,
Nice to hear from you and look forward to seeing some pics, A dam good idea having a meet, About half way would seem fair!. Ask Dave and a few others what they think, Tinduck and a few others are around your way. What work are you having done on yours(or is it a secret!)

Lets get a midlands meet together soon, sounds a brilliant idea.

Laters,

PaulP.
