My EU cost less than a Type UK. Make sure they quote it as a European Union car, not a "import", which usually means Japan. The jap import price was quite a lot more.

No problems as long as it has locking wheel nuts and cat 1 alarm fitted

The PDI in the service book should have been completed by the Dutch selling dealer. This is the only give away, unless it had a rear window or boot badge applied in Holland.
