    Hello,

    I've recently bought a 01 Mazda MX-5 from an exporter in japan(TAU).

    The car is coming from Singapore.

    The VRT from Japan is 1500euro cheaper than anywhere else. I only found this out when I rang the VRT office with the chassis number. Straight away the lady was able to tell me the chassis number was not one of japan as it had 17 digits and started with JMZN....

    The car is on the boat and payed for.

    I was hoping someone else found themselves in the same situation or had any ideas how to get around this one.

    Any help or ideas greatly appreciated,

    Thanks, Joe.

    Jap Import Mazda MX-5 is known as the Eunos Roadster,
    For the year 01 these should be the chassis numbers:

    NCEC 2000cc = € 4617
    NB6C 1600cc = € 2507
    NB8C 1830cc = € 2641
    NA8C 1830cc = €2642
    NA6CE 1600cc = €2779

    These are the only chassis numbers from Japan, so one of the above should match up,
