WHERE TO IMPORT The most obvious answer to that would be directly from the manufacturers themselves. That is if you have a load of money to spend and a means to transport your purchase halfway around the globe back to your garage. For the average import car buyer however, one need not look very far. Most cut price cars could be obtained in Europe. One must remember that car manufacturers carefully consider the status of taxes imposed by the different EU countries and often lower prices in countries where taxes are higher. These countries are prime locations for obtaining your next dream import and could save you a few hundred quid from your purchase budget. For the sports car enthusiast, their Mecca-of-sorts would be Japan, where some of the fastest souped-up roadsters may be obtained. Also, some Japanese car models have not been made available in Europe. If the trouble of going abroad and doing all the leg work yourself is proving to be too much of a hassle, a number of import car brokers and dealers are available in most motoring magazines and the internet. Most handle and facilitate the paperwork, transport and releasing of your vehicle, and all the nitty gritty usually associated with importing in the EU. Savings may not be as spectacular since most brokers and agents charge 10% of the total value of your import, but this saves you a whole deal of trouble by letting them do the work. |
