barneybrendan Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 What is involved when importing a car from the netherlands.Is there any tax ect to pay on the car when it arrives in this country.I presume you can drive over with a trailor and pick it up and drive back.Just want to no if you have to pay anything when you get off the tunnel or ferry.Or is it just a case of mot then vic test/apply for log book and get uk plates.

barneybrendan Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 dont think that driving would be ideal as the engine isnt in the car .its a restoration project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TokyoRich Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Depends how old it is, shoudl generally be straight forward, especially if its older than 10 years. Contact the DVLA if in doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
