Question Impreza RA - R

how much would it cost to import one of these, for example if Ian Litchfield brought one over how much would the customer be expected to pay after all the duties, SVA etc had been done as they sell for 18k in Japan?

The person who imports the vehicle (whoever's name is on the Bill of Lading) pays all of the duties and VAT.
