    In this case everyone will be shipping cars specially from the Middle East where cars are the cheapest ...:P - only 5% import duty.
    Obviously misinformed.

    Yeah. But the case is if you are intended to use more than 1yr you have to register it paying full taxes or return it to the original country. Also, the vehicle must be RHD But there were more conditions. I remember there was a Hummer with UK plates (Auto Miraj) brought in a similar way

    That makes sense.

    That seems to be correct. It's a temporary arrangement. Makes sense.:yes:

    ටොපික් එකෙන් පිට පැන්නට සමාවෙන්න ඕනේ.. මේක ෂෙයාර් කරන්නම හිතුන..

    Mercedes bringing the inline 6 cylinder back.!

    One of the best/innovative new engine designs i`ve seen in recent times. Not a single drive belt attached to the engine! The Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) thing is amazing in the way it`s packaged to do multiple things!

    Integrated Starter Generator isn't new. Toyota had an engine using 42V a long time ago in the Japanese local market.
    However, the lack of a single drive belt could be unique.

    Yes, so did Honda`s IMA. Similar tech bust mostly used for 'Hybrid' versions. Merc` 48v is system is standard for every application where the M256 engine is used. Plus all the benefits of a straight 6 :nerd: (simplicity, high torque, smoothness, power delivery,etc...)

    Yes.. true. The in-line engines are making a comeback. I wonder why they went out of fashion in the first place, being a simpler design - Probably the overall length of the engine.
