i\'m not going to use her as a daily driver - just shows & sunny sundays - but she\'s had a life of specialist (yes aussie) build, rebuild and dyno-tuning. i just want to keep her in the manner to which she\'s accustomed.... :)

No problem mate, you would take the M5 up to brun then jump onto the M6, then its Junction 19 you want.

Theres a few other experts in the London area but not familiar with them so can\'t really comment, also Geoff at reworks i think, which is on the south coast.

Hopefully someone will post other specialists, and you\'ll deffo find somewhere to go.

Good motoring buddy.

Otherwise you have got Tim over at RX Motors in Dorset (01725 516462) He just finished bridgeporting my FC and he runs a very quick series 1. Or try Rotechnics in Reading, I\'m not sure whether they like modified cars but they work on everything rotary from the Ro80 onwards (0118 988 8555)

Nice car BTW! I\'m looking forward to seeing it a the shows!

Can i ask what kind of price you pay for such a fine example and to get it imported?

Ball park would be good.;)

thanks grinder. i should start counting and run a poll....! :)

gman, there will be some costs when she gets here getting her registered/ mot\'d yada yada, but all should be about £10k.

don\'t know about insurance tho... anyone recommend an insurer that\'s kind to owners of modified imports...?
