Hi Geoff,
Just wanted to say thanks for all the help you have given me over the past 4 or so months to source my 2011 V36 Skyline 370GT Type SP sedan. My friend has picked up the car and it seems to be in good order. Can’t wait to get back and drive it! Anyway thanks for answering my questions and emails and keeping calm during the wait – it is much appreciated and I will definitely recommend you to anyone who is interested in importing a car.
