I came across these cars for sale and could just picture Richard H rushing off with his passport for the Austin A55.

If so anyone know how much.

You don't have to pay any import duty on cars from countries that are now classed as part of Europe.

I have bought cars from Germany and Belgium before, driven them home, got an MOT on them then registered them and that's it [about £50 to register but must have MOT and insurance as you have to tax them at the same time Wink ]

Guess that's one good thing from being part of Europe Rolling Eyes Laughing
