Guys, need some help. What import specialists do you know of? After serious consideration, im gonna sell the audi some time in the near future, rather than spunk a load of money on making it quicker/nicer im going to go for a Skyline which i have always wanted. Any recommendations as to where to go and any advice about imports would be greatly appreciated. Im not in a huge rush at the moment as ive got a couple of minor faults to bodywork to sort out on audi first before id even consider selling her.
