zenetti 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2007 Haven't seen this one yet: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...87/k-360672.htmbe careful this guy has heaps of cars in stock that CAN NOT be registered. Maybe this one is a fresh import? I was looking at one he had earlier this year, and he was quite evasive when I asked some 'reasonable' questions regarding compliance and registration. If you do try and re-export, then import you will still run into all sorts of trouble. There are minimum lengths of time that a car must stay overseas, can be quite a headache.Best to do a whole lot of research, then go and see the guys at the IMVDA, very very helpful people.

Hi-Tek 3 Report post Posted October 25, 2007 I've spoken to Tony (TWR) about this particular car. He says it's a 1986, first registered in Germany in 1986, then it was later exported to Japan. The car itself is still in Japan so he's waiting for a keen buyer here with a deposit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 34 Report post Posted October 25, 2007 So should be fine as long as it passes initial compliance check. BTW saw your car on TM Ollie - how's the sale going? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old_Skool_Bmw 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2007 (edited) Looks nice!! I take it he has a 2.3L engine in it, not the 2.5L evo engine. Did you get a chance to have a look at the engine bay? Do you know if he added a few things to the engine or did he keen the engine pretty stock? FWIW: what sort of requirements do you have to meet to enter an 'Open Class' race?? Laurence.
