I quote - "Also it is not the revised engine. So what if it has Tiptronic etc, as mentioned, its an import and worth less as a result. The nismo kit and wheels are only worth about 2k as an option fit. Insurance WILL be higher for it too, no warranty (manufacturer) and what happens when the tiptronic fails"
Few things, I'm not quite sure just because it's an import it's worthless as a result?? I've saved a small fortune buying JDM and at the end of the day it's the same car as a UK one, if some people really do feel that it's really that different then unlucky! ok you lose the warranty but my cars four years old already (doesn't look it) and therfore warranty would of expired anyway. I think we've gotta stop this turning our noses up at the import stuff ( I'm surely not the only member heere who feels the same way - maybe I am?)
Second thing - I think most insurance companies are coming round to the idea that grey imports are not what they used to be and therefore there isn't much difference if any for insurance preimiums from JDM to UK.
Third thing - the triptronic is probably as likely to fail as when your clutch does in a manual so don't think that's relevant.
I do agree though, cars well over priced, more likely a typo error and should read £26k ? even that I think is steep! Anyone fancy ringing them to confirm?
