Default Import companies

For some reason I can't get the search to return much, so I thought I would ask.

Apart from Litchfield Imports, Bonsai cars, Newera who else imports Impreza's into the UK that are a trusting company to deal with?

Thanks

Darren

Keighley Trade Centre mate

Can't go wrong

But seriously, theres a company in Scunny called Ebony & Ivory - Japanese Import Car Specialists

Been down myself and they had a good selection of cars in. Dunno about any reputation, but add it to the list?

Also, a mate used these men when buying a fresh import a while back... Welcome To - DCY EUROPE - Japanese Import & Export Specialists

It shouldnt happen: if it does go to another VRO. Pre-2001 registrations cant have any CO2 figures, not even from UK equivalent models.
