neverfear Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 hi guys, i mentioned friday that i'd ben to look at a tt on friday at a local imports in halsowen dudley. i've spoke to the guy again and asked him what work he's doing to it to make it fit for the uk road. all he said was fog light on rear which i knew and new dial covers for the mph obviously. my question is, is that it? is that all that has to be done?

neverfear Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 this is the place i went to in dudley. clicky clicky the black one is the one im intrested in, standard apart from hks bov, s/s exhust and induction kit. the orange one is a right bag of crap. vinyls stuck all over it which are cracked and peeling, worn interior and it's a N/A single turbo conversion. they have a lot of skyliners and rx-7's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egrossi Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I've had my import for a few weeks now. Trust me nothing to fear as per your title, as long as you do your checks. Try the checklist on this forum as I did and alls fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverfear Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 the thing that put me off was no service history at all when i asked. he said that was normal for imported cars. but im new to imports so just took it in my stryed.

Rayman Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 what year? service history is a bonus if its a fresh import, if its been in the country a while id expect to see some tbh, i mean as an owner id always keep service records even if its just receipts!
