Help req importing to UK

Hi , I have been searching now for a particular pick up now for a while and found one in South Africa on gum tree but do not trust this particular site ! I am looking for a trustworthy person to help me find and locate a Toyota hilux 4x4 pick up known as a Bakie ! This model will be from 1979 to 1983 known as a Mk1 over here in the uk .
The estimated cost of the truck should be around 80rand .
If this is something you could help me with please get in touch .
Thanks Ste .

At the current exchange rate of roughly R23 to £1, R80 is about £3.50.

Are you sure about the price?

Some help similar to the above would be appreciated by me as well.

I need a new CDI unit for my RG125, but the only only one I have found so far is on Gumtree South Africa:

I have contacted the seller, he doesn't have PayPal and is understandably unsure about dealing with someone so far away. If someone was willing to purchase it, I'm happy to forward them the money plus whatever postage would be to send it out to me?

Up date , ended up finding another truck but far nicer cost was 92000 rand but well worth it shipping just under 2k !! should be arriving on may 23rd

I got their in the end

may I ask who you used as shipping agents? 20ft container?

[stesrg]

A company called seacargo 40 ft shared container almost anywhere in the world for 2k including collection from the sellers home .

Hi Ste,

Fair play to you for shipping a truck over, I want to ship over 2 classic escorts but worried about scams and finding a trustworthy company that doesn't cost the earth!

Would you rate 'Seacargo' to use and have you got any contact details?

Cheers, Paul
