Must be some import taxes and so-forth? I am also interested.

As I understand it, 5% import duty then VAT at reduced rate of 5% if it's over 30 yrs old. Then 55 quid to register it. Should be IVA exempt.

Good knowledge thank you.

I was looking at the little vans though...

Register it at a Guernsey for a year, then you can bring it in as a personal import, and pay no duty at all. If it was originally U.K. registered, it’ll say so on the Guernsey V5

Wouldn't one need to live on Guernsey for that?

If it’s registered in your name in Guernsey, I think your chances of getting pulled by plod are remote.

Mind you , at that price it’s not going to cost fortunes to pay the duty! Collected is not going to be cheap though…. Thick end of £300!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this have the 115bhp 1.8 lump in it, not the 130bhp claimed in the "Auctioneer's notes"

And your fascinating* fact of the day is that 'Mercedes Unimog' is actually an anagram of 'cum erodes minge'.  Bet they kept that quiet in the brochures.
