Bro, i did arrange by sakura forwarding ( sakura forwarding - Welcome to Sakura Forwarding - Bring Your Car To Malaysia)
The owner is ex student studied in Japan. He would advice you the estimate charges for all formalities clearance.

AE @ Glenmarie is very professional workshop ( in terms of work reliablity and charges).

I have already get the price for all clearance formalities .. next step is to service the car .. but not really sure what need to be serviced as the car is stationary foar almost 6 months.. ie timing belt, spark plug, fluids etc ..

Would the standard service is suffice? The car had been service
about 500 miles ago BUT it was 1 year ago .. since then the car was hardly moving

Hi,

just read that you bought a car from the UK. Is it already back in Msia? I'm currently studying in Bristol, UK. Did you import the car using the student AP? I'm planning to get a Civic Type R EP3...sometime in June and ship it back next year. Hope you can help me out with some useful information on the procedures in the UK and Msia.

Thanks.

yup it's already in malaysia .. 1 thing for sure, i highly recomended you to use Arcadia Freight .. the owner (andy) was very helpful to me and really advice me from A to Z .. he is well-known among Malaysian in UK .. just for info, the tax to bricng back the car ( EP3 type R, 2003 ) is RM 25K .. that was what my buddy paid about 3 months ago .. that is for custom tax .. but of coz you have to bear in mind the shipping cost, agent cost etc ..

have u bought the car ? when are you planning to bring back the car ?
