Sounds fantastic for the money. Does Superfly yellow look this flat in real life?

Not seen one in real life in this colour but yellow often can look washed out/flat depending on the sun/lighting in photos (I speak from experience )!

Was in Auckland NZ a few months back and meant to drop in on the dealer but never got around to it. A friend has seen it and says it's mint.
Personally the SE needs to be in the special ed colour, but at least yellow is a good second choice.
The car has been with them for well over a year and already been reduced quite a bit.
Interestingly the car I was going to buy last year was the other ex NZ SE30 imported here 4 years ago.

There is a fair bit of import duty to be paid don't forget.

There was a discussion on this car on another forum some time ago. Ex Singapore car exported to New Zealand. Hasn't been driven a lot in ten years. It was also fitted with a special factory sports exhaust which increased the power slightly, black leather & air conditioning.

Im sure if you flick Greg an email he would answer all your questions and take close up pics for serious buyers. I have seen this SE30 twice in the flesh and colour does appear brighter than shown. The photos of this car do not do it justice. As for being immaculate yes when I seen it around a year ago it was perfect. But now I cant confirm this.

Actually I want all you poms to keep your grubby mits off it. It belongs here on empty salt free roads where it will be well looked after

Hope it dosent leave NZ

i'd imagine import duty @ 10% and VAT

or, with letters of 'confirmation of historical importance' from a recognised source of information, the 10% of purchase value import duty would be waived for a £50 registration/certification fee and possibly, (depending on the HMRE desk jockey's attitude...), VAT charged at 4.5% of original sale value in the UK.

One of these recognised sources for older Lamborghinis is Lamborghini Club UK and we offer our Members the Club's assistance in matters such as this.

A car like this SE30 would be classed as an older, historically important Lamborghini; its just that some of us think that the mid-1990s as only yesterday...

Beware. The HMRE are becoming much more ruthless with this now, just tried importing the no 2 team car to a Le Mans winner and that wasnt good enough to qualify

As mentioned - that's always depended on the time of day or year or the rubber-stamper's general opinions and other variables such as 'desperation within the idiot government' or the chancellor's latest 'making a point' setting...

The worst that can happen when asking for the lesser fees and duties to apply is that the request will be disallowed though such a request from a non-trading interest like LCUK does seem to get better results. (...and of course, no offence is intended there Dion; better dealers like yourself deserve a break as much as anyone!!)
