We have a 25 year import rule based on stupid vin swapping and emissions bull****.

I don't know if it applies to your car since the amg s70 is a modded w140. But then again, if you bring in this car and you're wrong, it'll be stuck on the docks.

Nice website. The car is gorgeous. The interior is immaculate and the leather looks amazing. I can imagine how it smells. I love the little AMG labels on the door locks. That is a nice touch.

How many kilometers did you have on it before the engine rebuild?

That gives me an idea...maybe the OP can post a sound file of the engine running?
