Yeah, just get hold of a good reputed clearing agent and then go and import the car yourself. You dont need anyone to do it for you. The cars engine is over 3.0 liter, you have to pay the duty and penalty and then finally pay the clearing agent. Trust me you will save a lot and instead spend that money on the car if you want to.

On order is the LP640 in arancio atlas (pearl orange) slotted for may delivery. I am also interested in the SV Murci coming out in June so I might just trade that for the LP and also getting the F430 Scuderia here in India by year end(possibly from Hyperperformance cuz I think they'll be just the right people for the task)..
Manik is a friend of mine.. He was actually my junior in Vivek High School.. Hehe..
Below are the pics I just clicked of the 911 and Bentley.. Kinda rusty in the photography department but will get back to better clicking once I resume photography.. Btw,My name is Karan Deep Singh.

Picasa Web Albums - KD - Cars at home

I don't know how to post pics here as I can't see the option so I uploaded them on Picasa.. I hope I don't get the hatred from my fellow brother here as I get in chd for apparently no reason.. Enjoy!
Awesome collection dude!!!!
You are buying the F430 scuderia, that beast! My goodness! That's great news!

Thanks guys! I had no idea I'd be this well accepted here.. Yes I really wanna buy the Scuderia first and then the AM V8. I contacted national garage in mumbai and they connected me to Jetan Patel. He quoted me a landing price of 2.6 cr for the 430 (standard) of my specs.. Hyperperformace guys are offering me at better rates .. So I guess they are the logical choice..
My real issue is servicing and after sales service.. Lets see how that goes..

Even if someone sets up a service center, they will only stock regular wear and tear parts like filters, plugs, consumables, brake bads and similar. They cannot afford to stock parts as these are quite expensive and does not work out to be a viable option for them. All other major parts will still have to be imported as and when required. Try to figure out where are the Ferraris in Delhi and north being serviced. This will give you a better idea about the same. Same would also apply for the Aston that you are planning.

Try to get the break up of cost like duty paid, penalty paid, cost of car, same options, commission or dealer margin, time for car to arrive once initial token amount is paid. Get all of this in writing. This will help your shortlisting process. Also get details from which dealer in Europe will the car be invoiced from and all the other small official details involved.
Check with liv2drv. He has imported/or bought almost a dozen similar cars and will be able to guide you with the same.
