When I imported my Accord Type R from Belgium the UK RRP was £24K (ouch) but the exchange rate improved in my favour after the deposit and I ended up paying 18K, plus around 500 for aircon (instead of 1000).

So . . . Honda make the car in Swindon, ship it to Belgium, I then ship it back and it still costs £6000 LESS than if I had banged on the Swindon factory door and asked for one there and then!

The sooner we get the Euro the easier it will be for us Brits because all European prices will be transparent, thus making the purchase of ANY car from ANY EU country a reality.
