Default Re: Should ADRs be abolished for imported vehicles?

Just floating this out there, before I bought my Renault Trafic Crew van I found that Ford UK offer a similar 5/6 seater Tansit Custom with fixed rear bulkhead, wing rear doors, 125kW engine, auto, rear a/c...you get my drift. Now obviously Ford Australia don't import it and apart from very specific parts for this UK Transit Custom "Double Cab in Van" everything else is used on the local Transit Custom while the engine is used in the Transit cargo so parts are stocked here already.

Why can't I import this without any extra fee or levy or duty because Ford Australia choose not to import it however spares etc are already available here apart from rear seats and bulkhead?
