"Why, when you could buy this one just up the road from my place and ship it 
to the US - all for probably less than that amount, with little manual labor 
involved :-)"

Because it isn't anywhere as simple as that.  I researched importing newer 
MGs a couple years back and the newest I could import and put on the road 
would have been early 70s BV8's.  Anything newer starts running afoul of 
safety and pollution laws/requirements.

25 years and older are exempt from EPA and DOT regs.

I just imported a 67 Austin this week and had no problems.

P.S. I tried twice to post about the Austin pickup that I just brought in 
through the port in Baltimore and neither one came through.  They were long 
posts.  Could that have been the problem?  The second time I BCC'd it to 
myself and that made it, but the two lists didn't come through at all.
