Looking for a BB1, know of one for sale?

Exactly the same as me.

I'm horrified how much more expensive my JDM is to insure than my UKDM!

I don't know why it would be double to insure an import for y'all, as my UKDM BB3 was only £200 a year cheaper to insure than my JDM BB4 was, and that was when I was 21 with 3 points on my licence and 1 years NCD.

Yeah, different cars. As much as I love my car, I don't think I would pay 5K for it rust-free and lower mileage. Obviously though people value things differently.

It has to be said though, it's ironic that you have a Skyline as your avatar and could import one, yet you're set on a 4G :lol:
