Just noticed that although it's RHD it's German registered and in Germany so more expense and hassle importing and registering.

If it would fit in my drive way i would certainly consider it, but my present 75 saloon already overhangs the pavement by a couple of inches !

No hassle at all. No fees either. Car already has paid its vat and tax here originally when a UK reg car.

Import. Declare to nova. Insure in vin. Book mot in vin. Get mot. Fill out form "used vehicle import pack" from dvla website. Pay £55 plus 6 months tax at same time.

Done. I've done it myself this year. Hassle free.

I particularly like the rear floor carpets, remind me of the carpets in my Great Grans house back in the 90's, the decade that is, she was 100
