2- wait until 2018 (change in import laws) and import a new car.
As such I wondered if anyone could tell me whether a factory built DeHavilland is registered as a 68/9 206, retains the age of the MGTF donor or is classed as a new car?
I can't even think about applying for an import permit until I know how to accurately describe the age of the vehicle.
Cheers,

The Australian state you live in makes all the difference.
Without seeming cynical if you live in NSW buy a real Dino it will be cheaper.
Other states and Victoria in particular are much easier.
Even when the new import laws come into effect it is very unclear as to the compliance requirements.
