After looking around for about 6months, having asked god knows how many forums ive cone to the conclusion the dc5 is the best all round car i can get for my needs and budget.

Just wanted to see if there are any owners on here or where you could point me in the direction of any? Just have a few questions about importing/ownership/maintenance etc

Firstly
Im looking at getting a car imported from japan to allow me to start with the car completely stock. Has anyone any reviews of any uk importers at all? And what extra costs would be incurred when registering it here?

Insurance for me at 23 isnt too bad, with it hovering around 1000 for intergra type r i have looked at for sale on here, which is exciting for the fact currently its 700 for my 1.4 clio... Are there any specialist insurers to look for?

I will be using the car every day and will have some money set aside for jobs that need to be done to the car when it arrives. Are there any mods that anyone would reccomend to make it more useable as a daily? Or jobs that you would say need doing to change the car for the uk roads?

Let me know if any of you are out there!
