<p class="x12ofw9d" style="box-sizing: border-box; overflow-wrap: break-word; text-wrap: pretty; margin-block: 0.75rem; color: #0d0d0d; font-family: -apple-system-body, ui-sans-serif, -apple-system, system-ui, 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, 'Apple Color Emoji', Arial, sans-serif, 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol'; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks; background-color: #fcfcfc;">For those who've owned Japanese cars in Cyprus, I'm curious about which route makes more sense: arranging an import yourself or buying a vehicle that's already registered locally.

Did importing save you money in the end, or would you pay a little extra for a car that's already here?
