FYI transportation and shipping costs will be £300 (absolute tops inc de-reg is needed...) and £385 (inc Marine Ins); port fees and Customs clearance will be £100 (less if multiple cars). This is added the cost of the car where Import Duty is applied at 10% and VAT is calculated on the total. This has added £985 to the cost of the car. Id expect the kit required for SVA to cost little more than £400 including a professionally and well fitted quality fog lamp and a Cat 1 alarm. When you add £600 which is generous for an E-SVA test and the hire of a Model Report we are up to £1,985..... The total cost will be about £31,750 but this is calculated at the full retail cost of the car in Japan including tax. All it needs now is more underseal; McGuards; a stereo; registration and tax.....

Not made myself too clear there Iain; as a round figure £600 for the E-SVA test and the cost of hiring a report combined! -thats the only price that was vague though; as Im sure you will confirm- If it WAS that easy I wouldnt be trying to bullet proof a Type-R right now!

Not your fault Iain I know.
Seems rather expensive when you consider that there is a low mileage immaculate S202 struggling to be sold on the SIDC website at the moment for £20k which was also one of only 400 in the world and only one of 10 in the UK...

If you have not already had a Model report created yet you'll be shocked at how expensive it is 
At the moment we're the only company with a live report for the MY03+ cars and it was painfully expensive and long winded. If your trying to get a classic Type-R through it's going to take a huge amount of work. If you need any advice feel free to call anytime
I said on the site it was expensive, you could have a new Type 25 for lessbut then I guess some people just like to own something even rarer

I like it, I'm gonna buy a S202 when I stop riding and sell my wagon but maybe a S203 will be a better bet...love the seats, reminds me of the proper stripped out racers like the 360 CS and 911 RS's...nice car.
