Hi

Yeah that was me. I did'nt however get the car registered. The model report is no longer available......
I bought the car and then tried EVERYTHING to get it on the road but it just would'nt happen, so i sold it back to the importer and bought myself a Spec C instead. It was a crying shame cause it was mint.

What's happened to the report as there are road legal ones around (Rasher for instance)?

Terminator X......... I was going to mention Rasher as well

Didn't his S202 win a prize at the NBO a couple of years ago so it must have got there by road LOL

Mind you he did post a lot of pics of gleaming suspension arms in pink it might have travelled the UK on a transporter

It seems to have disappeared shortly after a few were bought into the country when his came in or someone is holding it that does'nt want to let it go
I dont even want to guess how KTR register some of their cars!!

suposedly you can still get it cars done with no model report somehow, although not sure if its a backhander or official jobbie

TX, people that have model reports for rare cars, rent them out for extortionate amounts of money, sometimes it ain't worth it. It would be great if they turned around and were like,"here mate, just give it back when you're done" HA HA

Better to take it to a LHD country and take the equivalent of an SVA; much as a LHD car here would (no E-SVAs for LHD cars).

Id have tried Holland first, too. I didnt ever do it though: when the disabled loophole was closed I simply focussed on cars that didnt offer registration difficulties...
