Philip, you are correct with the high costs with bringing a Jensen #50 into UK. The customs duty alone would be around £800 GBP. plus I an guessing a bit here but possibly another £300 GBP for shipping. Also it may be prudent to have some sort of shipping insurance on such a high value item. That is if you could find a worth while insurer that would cover overseas shipments.
Steve, If a new #50 had made it to the UK i thought you would be the most likely person to own one! since i believe you have one of the largest Jensen collections in the UK. However the figures you quote do not surprise me at all which is why i don't think we will see one over here for quite some time. Plus the exchange rate is not as favorable as it once was which is another factor.
Unless of course we win the lottery!
