only problem with personally importing it is having to prove that you spent most of the year in the uk and that you used the car

1) You have to live in UK for the year. 2) You have to prove you are driving in UK for that year. 3) When you git it here Nissan Australia will not honour any warranty. So after the cost of living in UK for the year, shipping it over here and getting ADR compliance as it will not have a plate you end up with something that has almost no resale value and no one can work on as it requires very special equipment. And when you add it all up it will be more than $100k anyway.... |
