The car is being shipped this Friday to England. It will be here on Sep 13. We'll have to deal with customs and then hopefully drive it home for the end of Semptember.
Teo, the registration is easy. You will have to come up with a value on the car for VAT purposes, PM me if you have any trouble with that as can probably help. This does not have to be the same value as your insurance valuation. Unless you are getting the cars in duty free under movement of personal effects? If they try to charge you any more than £50 duty then tell them take a hike. The VAT if you are paying it is 17.5% on value plus shipping plus duty.

Once you have customs clearance you just need to MOT the car, then send the cert and fee plus customs note to the DVLA who wil make you legal.

I think I mentioned somewhere that you'll need a rear fog lamp on that car if it still runs the Carrera 3.2 chassis number, I don't see it in those pictures yet, so get on the case with some wiring there Keith, unless you want some British bodyshop drilling holes in your baby! It need to be on the offside (right hand side) towards the outside line of the car. It can come off between tests if Teo wants to be naughty but only needs to be small - the little Bosch ones work OK.

Do you need pics of what I am talking about?
