[kimi]

Ok as alot of you knew i sold the yaris a couple of months ago,

As it was such a nice sunny October day yesterday B)

[jd26]

damn kimi you make me jealous

a bit gutted i didnt chop in my tsport and buy yours as it was awsome.. then you buy a DC5 and have my 2 favourite cars..

*turns green* haha. i hope your enjoying it :) ! outta curiousity whats the tax like on both cars? i dont know how imports work when it comes to banding them in a tax bracket

enjoy the new car B)

[kimi]

Thanks mate i'm loving the V-tec

Tax is not as scary as you'd think,

the s15 is £185 as it was taxed as PLG.

DC5s can vary between £185 to £400 next year, depends how they were ESVA'd,

mine falls into the £210 so not too bad

It only cost an extra £50 to insurance over the Yaris too :D

[mollycorolla]

very nice cars kimi!!! wish i could have one of them

[jd26]

ahh see i dont understand what the hell PLG is :P id love an s15, theyre dropping in price a bit now and ive heard in standard form theyre not as heavy on the juice as youd think. my next car needs vtec or boost :P

[rallybunny]

Very nice. B) Believe it or not, I'm hoping for a DC5 for my next car...... must be normal progression to go Micra > Yaris > DC5 I reckon.

PLG = private light goods

if the importer registered as PLG there are 0 emissons so the old tax band applies, it goes on engine size.

Yes there are a few sub 10k s15s around but be careful, as they are not very good buys,

on the s15 like most imports you get what you pay for ;) there are not many s15s left in Japan that have not been drifted or thrashed

good ones you still have to pay for.

As for the fuel issue as with most cars depends how you drive it, if you drive in boost it drinks it or in Vtec [as in the Teg] it drinks it

but if you buy cars like that you dont buy them to get good fuel econemy

Very nice. B) Believe it or not, I'm hoping for a DC5 for my next car...... must be normal progression to go Micra > Yaris > DC5 I reckon.

Seems perfectly normal to me :P

and your local to Torque too so even better, go see Tristian for a test drive

You were very helpful with your advise mate

i'm loving the VTEC ......oh and MOO

[rallybunny]

Yep, we are very local..... possibly too local. Hubby's last 2 cars were from there, and have been fantastic - certainly won't go anywhere else when I do get one. :D Is that where yours came from?

[kimi]

The guys there had one lined up for me, but when my buyer dropped out the day before he was collecting the yaris

someone else bet me to it could not be helped, thats life.

I found mine private in Oxford, it didnot come through Torque, it originally came from 200bhp cars,

they are a very reputable Teg importer.

[Yaris SR Kid]

Very nice cars you have there kimi, the DC5 is a very nice looking car and its nicer to see something different to a ep3!
