Importing an RX7

[Steve Burnett]

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

so if i wanted to import a 2002/3 car i cant cos its not 10yrs old?

[snowy87]

Yes, at the moment that is the case. But as i said hopefully very soon that will change

Bloody hell! If that happens then im deffinatly importing a 99 spec RX7. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ANYONE, SOMEONE KEEP ME POSTED ON THIS!

Im looking to buy a car in just over 2 months time, id hang off if this is possible.

I should ask, whats "possible soon" my time scale your time scale could be very different.

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.

Theres a 99 spec car for sale in top marques at tha moment if you cant wait. Check it out

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
