Importing cars, We in the UK have little choice but to (re-) import from the USA and are currently bringing in about 1 Delorean per month, there are quite a few bits of paper/ customs etc to sort out, but nothing insurmountable. we then need mods to lights/indictors. By the time it is on the road in UK we have just about changed dollars in pounds, with shipping, duty, etc.etc. A good running regular , say 60k mile car in UK is worth about £10-12,000...same thing about $12,000 in the States?
