Hi all. Hope this finds you all well. I have a mate needing to get a medium sized car transported over from France, anyone got any recommendations? TIA Best Michel
I have two friends with companies that do this type of thing; Gary Ayles https://bespokehandling.com/ Amy Chambers https://www.cmsolutionsltd.co.uk/
If it is a non UK registered car being imported into the UK, it is liable for VAT and import duty if the car is less than 30 years old. Haven’t seen how the valuation of a used vehicle is calculated but expect to be skinned. The courier should be able to advise you although the system is still in its infancy and with COVID restrictions, not many people have done it according to an article I read the other day. If it is a UK registered car, expect to have to provide chapter and verse to prove it. Andy

Thanks for that Andy. Yes it could be tricky. But I know many people who work for European based companies delivering to UK clients and it’s a total mare out there. These are multi million pound businesses who are going to loose a lot of UK customers due to the extra and unforeseen costs borne by any 3rd party delivery address etc. And I know many UK companies that import custom EU made goods to re export in EU, duties coming in and out payable. This will apply to so many businesses but it’s all kept under the carpet. Anyway back to car transport, many thanks I shall pass this on to my friend.
