Don't forget the import tax on top of Vat.From my experience you can be looking at a total of 23% on top of base price.Am I correct caspy?

Vx's import price (before vat and duty) would not be the aussie retail price - prob something like 15 - 20% less

How about a game of guess the price (VE GTS - on the road in UK), I'll start - 32,995
