x350/x358 imports from Japan

[Rory4711]

Afternoon all,

Does anyone have first-hand experience of buying and running one of these, XJR in particular, that they'd like to share or advise on ? I notice there is a London-based dealer who - it seems - covers the usual initial concerns re being UK-ready.
Thanks in anticipation

They have been discussed from time to time here:

I believe there was an article last year in the magazine about importing from Japan. I can’t remember the month. It’s a shame the club don’t keep an index of interesting articles!

Agreed, my opinion is that the Club don`t see it as a priority....shame.

I've just spent some time trying to track down the articles in the magazine and could hardly believe how difficult it was to manipulate around the foibles and inconsistencies of the online magazine! There is some serious tidying-up work necessary here!

Anyway, I found the article which was spread over 2 months:

Excellent work, well done.

You are so right, a LOT of work needed to make this a wonderful resource. But well worth spending time and money on.

We have got a bit "off topic" here.

Back to imports!

Many thanks to all for pointing me to these resources. Obviously I've now got a lot of reading and thinking to do !
