Hi Gents,
To cut this short, and as fellow car enthusiasts, I wanted to get a feel of the general consensus on an idea I have.
I used to live in Kuwait where exotic cars are absolutely dirt cheap, and are immaculately maintained and low mileage, and I always have this niggling thought of importing cars, put them through a full UK prep so that they are fully registered (IVA, MOT, DVLA Reg, Road Tax, No. Plates, VAT paid etc.) and selling them with a bit of a profit.
So as an example, if there was a 2008 Ferrari F430 (60th Anniversary) with 30,000 miles, full Ferrari service history, albeit imported and LHD (welcome to inspect the car anywhere you like in the UK), for sale for around £58,500? Would it be tempting to you or not?
The car in question is a friends car that I could buy off him.
