So Defender would probably cost proportionately less over here.   Brian Dickens (Bri) Senior Member Username: Bri Post Number: 630 Registered: 08-2002 Posted on Friday, August 29, 2003 - 04:09 pm:    So ohow much would it cost to import?   EricV (Bender2033) Member Username: Bender2033 Post Number: 235 Registered: 08-2002 Posted on Friday, August 29, 2003 - 04:31 pm:    Brian, I think that to legally import one the price just about doubles due to all the work neccessary to get the vehicles up tp DOT standards. Now, grey market is another beast all together ....   noel Bond (93dico) Member Username: 93dico Post Number: 52 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Tuesday, September 02, 2003 - 11:20 am:    We have them down Here in Australia.
