Is it possible to purchase a rack & cargo box and have it shipped back in the car? There seems to be a bit of a customs issue. One possibility that I haven't got an answer to is that if the invoice for the car states that it has a rack & box, then customs shouldn't have a problem. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.

At what point are US sales taxes paid on the vehicle? Thanks Ian

The host will probably delete that post, so I'll jump ahead for those interested and post a link directly to the PDF that Jon and bimmerfest was so kind to post. |

Can you import in Canada/US a Peugeot from France for example? Do you guys have any idea how the insurance companies will deal with it or any other expenses? Thx.

Replying to: v_d (Sep 09, 2006 2:50 pm) There are specific rules on this - I'm not sure the exact but it's something like the vehicle must be 15+ years old. Diplomats can import vehicles but they must go back when they go back.

Replying to: robr2 (Sep 09, 2006 3:56 pm)  stupid laws, why would you import a car that's 15yrs old in the first place, so you'd get an unrepairable piece of junk? So smart...

Replying to: v_d (Sep 10, 2006 11:21 am) Grey Market age rules. Plenty of unique vehicles that were not able to be imported into the US originaly are now imported when they are 25 years old or older. Many original Mini Coopers and Austins are imported this way. Land Rover Defenders will be imported this way as well in the next few years. |
