Im selling here in NZ for $8000 FIRM (2,953.65 GBP) which Im sure I'll get as Iv'e already had heaps of intrest and it sells on yards here for around $12-$14K. IF I exported something like that to the UK what might it sell for?? Obviously shipping would be an additional cost.....what other cost's would the buyer at your end incur to get it on the road and all legal??

On a side note done up the look the !Removed!!!

It might be an idea to get some feedback from the Honda Revolutions Site HERE. They are generally a good bunch of guys many of whom will be joining us at the Gaydon meet soon. (Before anyone says anything - I know Gaydon is a Little too far for you to travel :P )

No you don't

[KiwiMR2]

No you don't

Now is that a good thing or a bad thing?? good; would be exclusive, bad; reason why there are none because it wouldn't pass your silly SVA test and in turn not worth the extra $$ needed to do it.

Our 'silly' SVA test just ensures any import meets our high UK standards ;) :)

Hasn't Aus now completely banned imports??

I doubt unless anyone specifically wanted it, it wouldn't be worth exporting on the off chance IMHO

Hasn't Aus now completely banned imports??

erm... aren't they big on imports?

dont they love their Jap imports?

[nws25]

I thought I'd read some literature saying the goverment was banning all imports??

Anyone??

[KiwiMR2]

I THINK with aussie it has to be under 10 years old...or some year. Here in NZ we can only import car's 1996 or HIGHER.

Our 'silly' SVA test just ensures any import meets our high UK standards 

Don't get me wrong I only know what I read but I get the feeling that that test was designed for Kit cars.....not really nw imports, hence me saying silly :)

Sorry, was just having patriotic moment :D

I believe the SVA was originally for kit cars, and then our wonderful goverment saw the potential of creaming us of more money

Yea and get this..its was much cheaper at first but after the ho0j wave of cars being imported from other nations the such an incredibly beautiful personts in government put a big increase on the price of the SVA. 'Testers' are encouraged to fail imports on the most idiotic things like an exhaust pipe that sticks out a little bit or dash mounted boost gauges etc.
