Importing a car
 
Who has imported their car rather than using a third party & was it worth it in the end?

What have you learned & what are you recommendations please?

mate you have posted on the lads post about his type r
why not just pm him

It's a ball ache unless you've got a trustworthy contact in Japan. Auction grading is a good guide but it's not uncommon for bits to go missing during shipping. I would only do it via an agent. That way he takes the risk and hassle.

Too be honest that was my gut feeling as I have researched the good & the bad side of importing.

It's only an option that I was considering but I'm sure something will crop up in 2014!
