Hi, Does the Jdm spec Fairlady Z have the Rev up Engine like the UK models? If so which models and years? Thank you Kev

Thanks Graham

Hi, Is it possible to register a fresh Import (2004/2005 model) so it gets the cheaper tax? Cheers Kev

Hi, I'm looking at getting a fresh Jap Import to try ensure it will be rust free. It's likely to be 2003 to 2005. Are the rusting doors / arches / sills a common problem? Cheers

Thanks Graham, will make sure mine definitely is!

Thanks Graham. Thats great they are pretty close to me, will definitely call him. If you don't mind telling me, how much did you pay and what grade was it? Did they sort everything out and you just collected from them? Cheers

Thanks Graham When was your registrated in the UK?

Good point! Maybe it was just imports registered between 06 and 07 that were a problem as the tax shot up to over £550 that year (according to parkers anyway)

Thanks Steve Happy with that but read that DVLA seem to go on date of registration in the UK rather than manufacture and apply higher tax bracket if car was imported after 2006. Heard some scary figures of 400 or 500 mentioned! Looking at getting fresh import ideally

Hi, Can anyone confirm what the road tax will be a pre 2006 Jdm import will be? It has been imported this year. Apologies if already covered but could only find very old threads Cheers

Thank you! Will definitely look into that, would rather go car shopping than sightseeing haha

Thank you both for your replies. The lower spec doesn't concern me, it's more the bodywork condition. LRF4N if you don't mind could tell me; Did you import it yourself or via a dealer? If so which site/dealer? How much did you pay in total? What grade / mileage was it? I can buy from dealers who will export while I'm there but don't think I'm allowed in the auctions and think I'll get better value from them but would be nice to choose it in person! Cheers

Hi, I am after a 350z Coupe and my experience with fresh imports on my current vehicle (Euros Roadster) is the condition is generally much much better with minimal or nil rust issues. Do UK 350z's suffer from rust problems (looking at 2003 to 2005 with 50/60k? Obviously any other issues for the above year/mileage would be appreciated. Not sure if will get manual or auto as yet. I may buy it online and import myself or go car shopping whilst in Japan later this year. Thank you and apologies if this has been covered.
