Default type r not registered

hi all, been out of scoobydom for while now but cant wait till i get my next one(saving for it!)
last one i had was v5 type r and thats what i`m planning to get again!

That one looks like a 4 to me,speak to your local SVA centre and ask them what is required to register it

Unfortunately you'll need a 'model report' for the type R to get it through an SVA test...and that's going to cost, cost a lot...have a read of this FAQ How to Import a car from Japan FAQ

Dont u hate ebay auctions that make a big point of saying no reserve, then start the auction at a high price - which is in fact a reserve !

Judging by the smart **** tone of the text I wouldnt deal with this joker anyway.

Buy it and then wait a few months and it will be ten years old. Hey presto no SVA needed
