The Japs do the same with their cars, I don't even think they have an emissions test, I think they have them a number of years then they have to get rid of them, guessing 4-5 years? Then they ship a lot to the UK (right-hand drive) there's a place just down the road from me where they put them in a car park (around 100 of them at a time) and sell them on, they look spotless, and most have lots of extras on them
