Thank you for the answers. My Audi already has Isofix hooks for the rear window seats.
Will I have to pay GST and possibly the Luxury Car Tax on my personnal import ? If so, based on what value, since I purchased the cars years ago ?
Indeed I plan on selling the cars before I eventually leave Australia but that should be years away.

Hello to all,
Now residing in Japan, I own:
- 2007 Audi RS4 wagon (RHD), fully stock
- 2005 Honda S2000 type V, fully stock, very low mileage
- 1994 Mazda RX-7 touringX with MazdaSpeed SportSound2 muffler, otherwise fully stock, 70k km
- 124cc Suzuki scooter, fully stock
Planning on moving to Australia (NSW) in summer 2012 with wife and kid.
Can you confirm my understanding:
1. I can bring under Personal Import just 2 of my 4 vehicles (one per adult)
2. None of them could be imported under SEV, so I will have to leave behind the other 2
3. Those I choose to bring in, might require some modifications for registration
Assuming a large enough budget, would you recommend I bring in instead a high value RHD car (Aston, Ferrari...) such as:
http://www.gooworld....4003472001.html (F430 12.6M¥)
http://www.gooworld....4005976002.html (DB9 11.2M¥)
and sell it upon arrival ?
Cheers,
Nic

I'll sell the RS4 when/if I move out of Australia back to Europe, as I will probably be in a LHD country then, and when that happens a B8 or B9 chassis based RS4 might exist for replacement. Otherwise you are correct: there is nothing an RS4 could be replaced with today of the same nature.
