All SURFS are grey imports lots of insurance companys will insure you its not as dear as you think. there are 2 engine sizes on the 2nd gen surf 2.4 & 3.0 Turbo Diesel. Petrol ones where also made but are rare as are manual gearbox Surfs

A parellel import is as far as I know goods that are made for several markets from one supplier but then shipped out to different countries for resale. A parallel importer then imports them back, most parallel imports tend to be on the branded items of designer clothes, cameras etc etc.
I.E Levi jeans made in England will be shipped to say Spain where they resale for £10 and also shipped to various outlets in the UK and sold for £50 a pair. So the parallel importers import them in from spain and sell them back in the UK for £25 a pair. So you happy with the bargain price, the importer is happy and Levi etc are not to pleased.
Parallel imports are generally considered 'gray goods'.

[Sewerat]

Thanks Koi, now i understand.

[ship]

a parallel import is an import of a vehicle that is already on general sale in this country, a grey import is an import of a vehicle not on general sale in this country, as far as i know,

insurance..... shouldnt be a problem.

i'm only 22 and have got my 92 SSR-G insured through tesco's and it costs me £600 fully comp, its a bit steep cos i live near london, but they were the best by a long way!!!!!!!!!!
