Mikey will know the costs. Is there vatmand extra costs if the car is over 25 years old ?

If i import a 87 gta i had a cost of 1100 dollers but not the costs this end ?

Any ideas to see if its viable

Yes mate, its got to be over 30 years old to get the lower rate of tax, on an 87 you will pay 20%vat and 10%tax, on the cost of the car plus the shipping.

That's just it! Id bring a GTA myself if I didn't have to pay the higher rate, I think 87 is the 1st year for GTAs? If so, its 2017 before it qualify for the low rate...

My Continental cost me just under £1500 for all shipping cost,that included $800 for the shipping company to collect car in South Carolina and take it to the port in Baltimore.Had quotes of about half that to collect car but decided to just let the one company do all the work.
Car was £2122 paying through Paypal.
Being over 30 years old though i only paid £150 duties Smile
