Hi all, hope you all well. Long time no message from me on the board as I am still abroad, but I hope the Toyota love is as strong as ever, it certainly is for me...
Anyway, has anyone used a transporting company to either import or export a car & can they then recommend a good company if they have??
In short, the OTTER (GT4) is still in the garage back in Aus & my dad takes it out every couple of weeks & now I've set myself up for what looks to be the long term here in the UK. (Even bought myself an MR2 MkII (G Limited), but hell does it need an engine upgrade).
Anyway, the GT4 is a fairly rare car here in the UK & one in good condition will go for the equivalent of about $20K back in our proper money, so I am umming & ahhing about what to do with it.
1. Sell GT4 (sigh, don't want to) & use the money to upgrade the MR2 (errr, where do I start with a 3SGTE engine swap??)
2. Import GT4 to here in the UK & either sell or keep MR2
#2 is the much preferred option & so, I was wondering if anyone has had anyone experience with importers & exporters, likely costs, things to look out for, legalities of taking car out of the country, time frames etc etc.
Take care all.
