Hi Guys, I have a problem? I'm going all Miami Vice? It must be a mid-life crisis or something but I'm after a white Testarossa. Does anybody know of one for sale? A couple of years ago there were a couple but I have not seen any for ages?

One RHD which was for sale recently, has recently started a new life in Australia. There was a low mileage ex Swiss car doing the rounds last year and this year, but has gone again-probably gone back home again.

Have a word with Dion (Elms).

Here's a white one for sale in Switzerland...

I would imagine that there would be taxes to pay if you were to import into the UK and the Swiss Franc is quite strong at the moment so it might work out a wee bit expensive.

Isn't it UK VAT plus import tax on the price of the car plus transport?

Not on a 2nd hand car. New car it is 17.5% vat + 10% Import duty..No transport costs

Verdi's sold one not so long ago. I'm fairly sure it was shipped out to Oz or somewhere like that.

Buy a 'crap' colour and wrap it in white (costs about £1500).

Not a Testarossa, but it gives you an idea (one of my toys!):-
