Great car! I converted my 70 RR to discs, easy job, drums on rear pulls up fine. Gear Vendors Overdrive seems the best option.

Beautiful looking car. The colour looks just right as well.

That'll be a nice drive from Ibiza to the Mopar Euronats at Santa Pod in July!

Importing into uk from USA

Post by PlymouthGTX »

So...

We have now discovered that the Spanish Gov. will want a total tax of 50% of the cars value for it to become Spanish registered.

What would it cost to import into UK?

Many thanks

I fitted a Gear Vendors to the Road Runner. Simple install and easy to remove and put back to stock.

Nowhere near 50% that's for sure! :shock:

from memory it's 0% import duty and 5% VAT, that's it.

I'm sure Don will know the duty rate, and the registration cost for V55/5 is £55.

Registration process is fairly straightforward here in the UK.

Think this is about right... it would be imported as an Historic Vehicle... maybe import to U.K. Then register in Spain before we part company with the EU :roll:
