Welcome to Norway I guess. Don't forget he paid nearly £30k for his GTR.

[JohnnyTh]

Aye, thats what norway is like. New its £ 110.000 for a a6

You're being robbed blind I tell ya, robbed blind!

Not only that it's got 107k miles on the clock. That's twice the price it is in Sweden and they are already expensive!
Here the same car & mileage costs between £7k and £8k.

Johnny, I just bought an S-Class Merc (2001) with 120k miles (192,000Km) for £3500.
The Aircon needs to be fixed (leaks) and it needs a wheel bearing but I do a lot of motorway mileage and it does 40Mpg and is dead quiet and dead comfy!

In norway that would be £16.000 or more

The norwegian tax office will bleed you dry! And you have the steering wheel on the wrong side!

Now that's hardly going to be my problem once I've got my £'s is it.

Bugger all Sales (who wants to buy a car with the steering wheel on the wrong side?) and no profit (Norwegian tax office bleeds you dry) so you don't get any £'s in the first place.
Ergo - no problem!
