Ideally I'm looking for a RHD Japanese classic. Does anyone have any recommendations on companies who can source auction vehicles?

Obviously there will be the purchase price, commission and shipping, but does anyone have experience of the likely registration fees and import tax? Are there any other costs i need to consider?

Thanks

Do you mind me asking what car you are interested in?

I could probably get you some decent info
Quite different cars (and price ranges!) a but i'd either like a 240Z or an NSX!

This is all great stuff ^^ many thanks!

Seems like prices are still pretty strong then? The one thing that does go in my favour is that (due to my current job) I can import up to 2 cars to the EU tax free, so that may help out a bit!

Would I do better looking in the US?
