Title: Silver Edition 30 N8 SBN
Post by: Craig Stanley on September 25, 2016, 08:25:39 am: Just wondered if anyone knows anything about this 2007 ED 30 for sale in Hampshire? Maybe who owned before the dealership got it. Its up for £7995 and 90000m full history and looks clean. Can anyone tell me if this is a reasonable price or not as I'm considering going to have a look at it with a view to buying? Cheers

Sorry to hijack thread a bit. But really? Here in New Zealand it's the manual ones that always command a higher price.

Or is it just personal import?

There are some Japanese imports now.
I just read a few days ago that there were 30 to be sold new in New Zealand and 30 to be sold in Australia. But Australia stuffed up their paperwork and New Zealand got their 30 as well.

I'm currently looking to import mine to Aus, would be pretty cool to have the only one on the continent :driver:
