Importing a car
Somone on the foz forum got one on a Japanese bank holiday for a steal as there wasn't as many bidding on it.

Importing a car
Container best way then cheaper too by the time you've got two in. How longs a subaru ? May even get three in and sell recoup some pennies. Do it ! Do it !

Spare Wheel for XV
There was also an off green almost duck egg blue colour in my local dealer thought that looked a bit strange, i'd choose black over that all day

Importing a car
It's hard work, looked into it a while back as bargains can be had, i'd pay to get someone to do it, hence why new era and the rest of them charge you handsomely for the pleasure. You got to find it, Get it to the point of export, Get it De registered in the country of origin, and ready for importation into UK. Not sure how strict our laws are about seeds grass mud etc still being on or in the car Find someone willing to ship it, a RORO cargo vessel i far cheaper but then you risk the people loading/unloading nicking bits, container would be best. PAY for above shipping, insurance dock fees etc. Wait six to eight weeks and hope it's not been hijacked by pirates, Get it off the boat in UK, pay for storage, import tax, vat prepped for an sva if needed buy model report I'd needed prep for UK, fogs mph/kmh etc. Sva test and mot. Probably pay more tax along the line.

Suppose it depends on your budget really, at the end of the day what ever route you tale you'll be into the thick end of five hundred notes for the most basic of set ups, Tidy, do you have a toucan connected to the syvecs ?

is my plate illegal ?
Mot tester failed me on it though as he was testing as a mx5 not an import. Divvy, I even took what ven has cut and pasted to him, plus the v5 and import docs. Asked me if I thought I knew the law better than he did. I said obviously I did took it to another testing station flew through on the same plate [emoji51] which reminds me I may go for another small oblong plate if it fits, not a fan of my square one at the front
