Hi,

First of all welcome to Australia.

I've never imported a car so I can't help with that directly but I'm sure there is lots of information on the Australian Customs web site or the Victorian Roads Authority (I'm in NSW so I don't know their name down there but you should be able to Google it) - they look after registrations and licensing and will have what you need to know on getting the car registered.

The real reason I'm writing is that it might be easier (but not cheaper) to have someone do it all for you.  I bought a 164Q that was imported from Hong Kong with a full compliance plate attached.  It was imported by Brian Foley who sill runs a servicing operation and might still bring in the odd car on the side.  Either they could do it all for you or may be able to give you some tips.  Here's a link.

The other option with a 166 is to sell yours over there and buy another one here.  Their resale value is hopeless here and it might be a cheaper option than to import yours (but yes only the 3.2 auto and by all reports the auto is not too good).

Good luck.

No problem importing an older car (prior to 1976) particulaly if you are imigrating. There are several freight ports from G.B. and simple requirements are that the car is steam cleaned and air conditioning gas (if fitted) is dumped. I wouldn't bother wih the other cars you mentioned. You wouldn't recoup the freight and trouble costs as the compliance laws are some of the most stringent in the world here in Australia. Also the market here poorly views private imports so G.B 166 models would be difficult to onsell.There is plenty of good examples of 166 here at very affordable prices and petrol cost is currently $1.10 a litre, so you should have little concern if you want a 3.2.
See you in 2009.
