Title: Importing an RX7
Post by: Steve Burnett on April 26, 2006, 01:08:49 PM
Just wondering what is the newest FD you can import?
Is it 10 years or older? so that in 2009 you could bring in a 1999 car?

Also whats the rules on modded cars.

Why did the government make it so dam hard to get new cars into the country!!!  :2Mad

Hi Steve, the word is that various people are very close to completing the much sought after model report. So fingers crossed, possibly in a matter of months, you may be able to import any RX-7, right up to 2002/3. Watch this space

At the moment I need the cash. I could do without the insurance thats due next month + the road TAX.
I also fancy a newer car, so 99 spec car in a few months would fit the bill.

Yeah but is £15k, I remember s reg cars being sold over a year ago for 16k tops. I think 15K for it is a bit high. But its the newest you can buy just now.

Thanks
