It seems that the UK has clamped down a bit, I have a guy interested in buying my car but at the UK end of things they now request a document stating that Duty was paid in the EU... If not they charge him 20% of market value over there..
It's a load of nonsense considering that when you import a car
NO.1 you can't get it off the docks untill you have paid duty
NO.2 you can't VRT the car without the receipt for Duty paid....
So the fact the car has an Irish reg should be proof enough really!!!!!
It's a bit of a mess, the only one who would have seen that document was the importer and it would have been then handed in to VRT the car...
So now 3 owners on, and 7-8yrs later how the Fuk do I get a receipt stating duty was paid????
