Hi guys,

Any idea where I can search for LHD cars in the UK ?
Thank you please

Dover and Ramsgate are always a good bet.

Try Autotrader and Exchange and Mart as well.

Depends what car you are after Alex!

Thanks guys.

I am tempted for an M coupe (the original one... Z3 M coupe).

Prices are good in the UK, but I would be aware that a uk MOT is a joke in comparison to the MFK so expect to do some work to the car. Also tax and duty need to be factored in if you haven't owned the car for 6 months.

Here is an LHD one http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3381862.htm

I don't think this would ever pass the Swiss MFK

Hi Alex,

You may want to look at the Italian market which close to you as the new government has just increased yet again the road tax! Just heard on the radio that if you own a ferrari 458, you road tax will increase by 2800 euros to nearly 6000 euro! This means all cars with over 200 kw (270 bhp) are up for significant increases in road tax....... Now not starting to regret selling the CSL

I think in the new few months the prices will drop through the floor here of older performance cars and newer ones will become less available... I might need to move back to the UK!

Hey Sacha,

Thanks for the tip.
I have seen a few good italian ones on autoscout24.it.
I will keep an eye on them.

BTW, have you considered moving to CH ?

Cheers

Have a look at the discounts on the higher performance cars in this list.....

according to the dealer, they are now really starting to feel the pinch of the new road tax!
