yup, to most at first glance will seem like a bargain! BUT u will have to do all the work yourself, le-ase with shippers, and docks and customs and excise agents etc, the car will more then likely be a bit of a shitter condition wise outside and in, will need a very expensive first service including cambelt, all plugs leads etc.. will cost a fair amount prob lookingat around 500+ more then likely need new tyres, n brakes bodywork have to spend alot to get it looking near good, but for a few k more and going through a importer such as me, it'll come over only needing minor service and be in v good condition inside and out!
just be carefull if your going to do it yourself, you have no comeback if the car lands and doenst start!

around £1800 OTR assuming it doesnt need tyres, and they won't charge a sourcing fee, but is high mileage, auto, 1991, a 3000gto! and grade 3.5. still a good price

Not bad at all, auto + high mileage though for a Jap car. F.O.B (is the price on the boat) will need to pay import duty etc) won't need an sva test as it's over 10 years old.
