Hi all

David from NZ, Singapore Import Black 1994 T5-R

No mods yet, but looking at suspension changes very soon...

Question if I may...is it worth importing my car into UK when I immigrate in November 2005? or sell here and purchase when I arrive...its proabaly worth 4K pounds ($12K NZ).

Thanks

David

Welcome to the forum!!

Personally i would sell your T5 over there and buy another once your here. The imports over here do not fetch the money (plus the shipping costs will be a stinger!!!)

Be great to see some pics of the old girl!

Are there many T5's in NZ?

Haven't seen many, I know of five...none were imported new, all are either Japanese, British or Singapore imports. Grey imports are a big thing in NZ.

I'll post some pictures when I work out how!!!

I too would sell and buy another when you get here. The T5-R are not common and you may have to hunt around a bit. But think you can easily get your hands on a RICA upgrade (300+bhp) - which is always a good thing.
