The vehicle is full UK specification
The vehicle is built in Swindon on the same production line as the UK cars and includes a 3 years manufacturers warranty.
Apparently the car is Brand new and unregistered and has been imported from Gibraltar. I rang my local dealer to see whether they would deal with any warranty issues, if i were to have any problems with the car, but they were unable to give me a clear answer because i couldn't give them the vehicle reg (it doesnt have 1 yet)
Basically i was wondering if anybody has gone down this route of buying a car before or whether anybody has any opinions on it. I am most interested in whether or not any Honda garage will look at the car should i have any problems with it?
Id rather not save myself around £1500 on a new car only to find i cant get it fixed should anything go wrong.
Thanks in advance for any information!!

I bought a Toyota MR2 roadster with hard top from an importer about six years ago.
The car came from southern Ireland and was full UK spec, it had a three year European warranty.
When the car was in for it`s first service the mechanic noticed the front disc's were badly corroded,
They could fix the car under warranty as long as i had the "certificate of conformity" (which i got with the car)
