I had an Elysion imported a couple of years ago. Ordered on 14th Feb. And arrived in the UK on 5th May.
Not sure though when it was loaded onboard.

The guy from my business park also has a car on the same boat, he's bought a Nissan March (JDM Micra).

Landing in Newcastle has been updated to the 5th of November. The boat went through the Suez Canal over the weekend and is currently in the Med just off Cyprus:

time flies - that is only a couple of weeks until it arrives at Newcastle. Wonder how long it takes to off load and clear customs etc?
