Looks great - since moving to Australia, it's really opened my eyes to the condition of cars from hot climate countries.
When I first moved over I bought a 2006 Subaru Forester and the underside was still like new despite 80,000miles. There was none of the rust to suspension arms / subframes that you get in the UK and having been in the country nearly 2 years I think it's fairly typical.
Back in the UK early next year and I would definitely consider importing older cars in the future for this reason. :approve:

Planning to bring my Red Bull Megane back with me next year, personal import so fairly straightforward. I think otherwise it's as much of a pain with customs duty /VAT making it not worthwhile.
