Default Reputeable Import Dealer

I was hoping to search previous threads for info on buying a jap import and good dealers to use, but search is disabled and i know this must have been asked loads of times if only could read these threads.

So my quick question is if looking for an import, can anybody reccomend a reputeable importer that they have used, or horror stories or ones not to touch with some elses barge pole ... Thinking of an import STI Wagon

Cheers

Another thumbs up for Litchfield - collected mine today (many thanks guys - the ride home was just a little fun - carefully running in of course!). No extras to add on to the advertised price (I found the advertised price was quickly bumped up at everyone else I contacted - add alarm, metallic, PDI, plates, tax etc etc whereas all included with Litchfield), came pretty quickly (ordered just before Xmas), and as cheap as anywhere else I could find.

I wouldnt touch them with someone else's bargepole!

Any second Opinion, cheers

That place is not far from me, went down there to look at a 350z, had a look at the scoobs as well, could spot loads of little loose trim, dents etc, and with all the stories on here i personally not purchase from them.

Good luck.
