One of my good friends who returned to Cape Town last year, is a sales man in Market Toyota in Cape Town.
They lived in our house for a while, so there is a good relationship there.
If any one is interested, I will drop him a mail, and ask him his best price.
He would invariably, sell to me, ( aka us ) at a reduced margin if I asked him.

You won't get a LHD vehicle in SA - illegal to import them now, and they only manufacture RHD, being one of the ex-colonies Although they may do some export-only vehicles for other markets - VWs I think are being made there and exported to LHD markets ... _________________ I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.

Gary is correct, No LHD.
The only LHD are the ones in SA before year 2000
Unless done as a special temporary import.
So, sorry, no LHD available.

Once you have managed to ship the vehicle back to the UK you will need to get a uk MOT |

Hi there,
Thank you for your reply.
I need to know how to find out if it complies with EU emissions and if i am able to import it.
I dont want to bring it over and then they tell me it doesnt comply.
Its a 2013 model
Appreciate any feedback. |

Importing a vehicle yourself
You must show your vehicle meets environmental and safety regulations or has an exemption. You’ll need:
a European Certificate of Conformity if your vehicle is right hand drive - you can get this from the manufacturer
a European Certificate of Conformity and a certificate of Mutual Recognition if your vehicle is left hand drive
an Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA) certificate if your vehicle has no European approval _________________ It's Not a Bl**dy Jeep it's a Landcruiser

As it's a personal import the rules are different, I used to import Japanese cars but most were over 10 years old.

I know this is an old thread but is this relatively easy to do. I liked the look of getting Footloose to do it but sadly it seems they have gone bust, any other firms doing say. A 4.2 76 series sounds like what I'm after
