Importing a De Lorean from the US
Posted: Wed Aug 01, 2018 8:26 am
Hi,
I am contemplating buying a 1983 manual DMC 12 that is currently up for $32,500 and have been quoted $1600 for shipping to Southampton + $150 for towing and 2% of value for insurance. Obviously I would need to get it transported from Southampton to my home near Blackpool.
Can anyone advise me on any other costs that I am likely to incur such as import duty costs and anything else I need to be mindful of?, or any potential pitfalls of buying a car unseen.
Many thanks
Steve
