2009 SVX 90

$60,000 plus cost getting it here,
and how to get it here, I have a very cashed up cousin who can keep it at his place for the required time period in his garage.
Got some phoning to do this week...

All I have to do is find a way of giving it a traditional Fender face lift.

mmm sorry does not work like that . You have to have lived with the car for 2 years not just owned it. My wife and i had to photocopy every page of our passports and send them of to Cambera to show that we were in the Uk with the car for two years .

Unless he is going to keep it in his garage for the next 15 years :)

As Ali said: I also had to copy every page of my passport to prove that I was with the car for the entire period, and also provide proof that the car was in use by me for a period of 12months, and that the car was taxed for the period (registered)

they could have colour coded the roll cage and side steps

I thought the import rule of have to have owned it for two years blah blah blah only applied to vehicles that were freely available in Australia. As far as I know cars that are "specials", ie competion beasts, rare classics and other unique-eties can be imported if you show a strong enough case.

Nah all cars that you import and that you want to drive on the road . you can import an off road car or race track car with no ownership for two years thing. But these cars are never alowed to be driven on the road.

I sort of already do have one :p:p:)

[dullbird]

I'm sure there is a way you could bring it in....But I doubt it would be under the personal import banner and it would cost you A LOT OF MONEY!! just the tax alone when it touched the soil would be a killer.

Many prestige car garages bring in classics and sort after vehicles i believe so there must be away! But I have to agree with the other fellas its not going to happen this way ;)

[Captain_Rightfoot]

As a matter of trivia I believe these rules were largely set up by Toyota to control/limit the import of second hand Japanese cars :o

When you look at some of the margins that arrive on cars in Australia I'm sure the local distributors were all backing it. At one point the retail price of a Lotus Elise when converted to AUD from GBP was around 40k. The price they were being sold for here was 80k :(

[mrapocalypse]

Special order through an Aussie dealership?

[isuzurover]

IMHO that is the fugliest 90 I have ever seen!!!

But if you were set on owning one, I am sure there would be plenty of people in OZ who could build something equivalent for much less than 60k.

Buy a 110 and a galvanised 90 chassis - then get a panelbeater to work some magic.

I totally agree....they just don't look right. If I was offered one of these or a 110 crew cab despite its rareness I would turn the 90 down

are you stashing it for twelve months ...? thought that is what the go is and are you supossed to come up with a log of the usage over that period ...how are you planning to prove this if you are in Australia ??
I am very interested as i want to pick up some piece of green machinery from the old country in the future cheers andy

[HBWC]

Have to agree. I saw new black SVX 110 in Fremantle last week - with that bloody ugly great slab of silver painted plastic across the front and some silver stripes on the side with the number "60" in black relief - that looked like any kid could have done it. Give me a plain black 110 any day of the week.
