Having owned the car for over 12 months I can export the car and I have a landed, inspected and registered cost of $10kAUD (around £6.5k)
Doing the math I think the car is worth around £5k (approx $7800), adding the 10k means $17800, I'm sure I could profit if I shipped it over.
However I've not been able to find any D3s with my mileage to gauge value but being an import with mph clocks (Australia are kph) and being an import the value would be hit.
I could keep it but I'd have to wait 3-4 months for the thing to be shipped and inspected so I'd have to fund a car in the interim.
I am torn on what to do
