After a lengthy wait thanks to DOTARS and DEH while the specifics of the new

De-gassing legislation were sorted, the MR2 is finally in my hands. The car arrived as described (with added dirt & filth from transport) and its lots of fun to drive.

After a lengthy wait thanks to DOTARS and DEH while the specifics of the new  

De-gassing legislation were sorted, the MR2 is finally in my hands. For those interested, the service given by Prestige was excellent, the car arrived as described (with added dirt & filth from transport) and its lots of fun to drive.

Hey blitz,

Did the vehicle come str8 to pyrmont or did u go down to melbourne to pick it up?

And whats the deal with the air-con did u have to do it on-site at the warf b4 u get your hands on the car?.. If so how much did it cost to do?..

Have to find out a bit more about this new air-con legislation.. As one of my mates is thinking of doing it soon. But if the air-con prob gonna be a bitch then he might pass.

Ceffo: Car was delivered to Glebe Island dock - I drove straight in and picked it up.

Regarding aircon, the cars with the old non-compliant gas have to be de-gassed prior to shipping, with confirmation paperwork supplied and a copy of this should be sent to your customs agent if you are using one.

Its no big deal, there were just carying stories going round after I purchased te MR2 so we needed to confirm exactly what the process was before sticking it on the boat.

From memory the de-gass is around $150.00 but if you buy a car from Prestige this cost is already factored into the total cost of the car.

Sweet. Not a big fan of the AW11's styling, but its still a sweet deal.

Looking for a Supercharged MR2? PM me

You selling it already???

LW.

[Blitz]

lwells, yep - car is being serviced, detailed and rego'd then offered for sale for the right price IF I decide against it as my daily driver.

I wasnt a huge fan of the styling either, but the combination of a small & nible car, targa top, supercharged etc etc was too good to pass up

[lwells]

Yeah, it was a steal for the price.

LW.

[Jimbo2000]

[Blitz]

Disciple, normally one of these cars supercharged is around 8k landed before compliance work and rego.

My neighbour got one just recently .. he imported under 15 year rule.. sweet ride..

It was looking veeerrryy old school.. had a full kit, suspension. 16'' mags .. he said it cost him 10K on road.

Funny thou how his wife drives a 2000 model BMW and he drives a car that is 15 years old..
