Default Any car importers out there?

Ahh I have been reading a lot on the for sale forum for a little while and after selling my MY03 JDM Sti about 3 years ago, I have missed it ever since !

I have now invested into an MY06 Crystal grey WRX ! Its not got the power my old one used to have, and I am not expecting it too!

But this is only a temp car! Its a lovely thing, and I paid a lovely price too. My main interest is to purchase a Hawkeye JDM STi, and to preferrably import it direct from Japan.

Does anyone know of, or have used a good importing company for their car?

Thanks Guys

Be prepared to pay a big premium as the exchange rates suck at the moment

I have sent him an email, I remember him from a while ago when he first started up. I have looked at a few, but I think that with the exchange rate, its probably best to look in the UK!

I remember you aswell ! It's been a long time. Your better of buying a car from the UK at the moment because the only stuff that is worth buying for a importer is high mileage or damaged. The high end stuff (20k+) ain't that bad ,but make sure you get an auction sheet.
