Qld Importers

[stink]

Hi All,

Just after any opinions on a couple of qld importers.

SVI - Seem to be pretty genuine but everyone does before they get your money.

Adrenalin Imports - Havent spoken to them yet

Any recommendations on any other qld importers would be great.

Cheers Stink

Thanks for the reply Bunta,

Yeah my main concern at this stage is other than the normal mechanical tests that they do when importing a vehicle, how do you know the vehicle is in good condition internally etc like they dont do pressure tests or anything like that do they?

I mean sure the car may look fine and seem to be free from any major problems but i am in Townsville so i wouldnt be able to get any further mechanical testing done until i got it home and to find then that something major is wrong with it would gut me.

They dont know all that stuff! No one does. That is reflected in the cheaper price I suppose! It is always a little gamble....Ring Zac at SVI, he is a great guy and he will tlak you through their whole process!

You can use others (J-Spec, Prestige, Mark Hocking etc) and the car is shipped to QLD... the way I see it, unless you're buying the car from a yard (and view it in person) then it doesn't matter where anyone is as you do the purchase via phone/email

Just my $0.02

Thanks for the replies guys,

I have spoken to a few importers now but the level of service and effort that Mick from SVI has gone to has been excellent.

I have punished him with questions and he has answered them all where others just couldnt be bothered.

Looks like SVI for me

Thanks for the rep's all

I've recently imported, my only advice from it, is if you have the time go through one of the bigger ones (mark hocking, j-spec, prestige), as you have to some of the work yourself, but you've always got someone to haress when stuff doesn;t go to plan, but it does give you an insight of how to import, that way by the end of it you've made some contacts (ie compliance, customs agents) and the netx time you cna do it yourself.
