Hi guys, looking for another 1200, and since the availability in new zealand is pretty much nill most of the time, I was looking to the possibility of importing from Japan as there are plenty available.
First question is can it be done? if so how easy?
Some people tell me I can't because it is older than 20 years but I see people talking about importing old cars all the time.
Any info appreciated

More than 20 years old should be fine. I think you'll find that a decent one would go for good money in Japan and the cost to import, comply and fix anything wrong with a car that old (rust) is going to cost more than buying one here.
There's more info here:
