Importing SN95 into The Netherlands (Europe)

It probably blows the budget, but you could put in an AOD and ABS then put the 5 speed back in once it's past the inspectors....

It would blow the budget. And I'd have to do it every year as in Holland they have yearly mandatory vehicle inspections. :-(

they'd really know the trans was changed and care?

Damn ...sucky situation. Hope things work out for ya.

It's garages that do it. The local one I'd use would not care, but they have to submit their results to the Dutch DMV, which picks random ones and retests. Those cars get gone over with a fine toothcomb and yes, the tranny change would show up as it's on the Dutch 'pink slip' equivalent and would not tally...

It's an omen Paul, you have to stay here. Pleeease!!!!

how much of a difference does the 6 months make ? I am also in the US and might also one day move back there...

If you've owned it for 6 months, there are no import duties on the vehicle. Which they calculate over what Dutch customs calues the vehicle for, based on the Dutch market. The con is that if you do it this way, you can't sell it, trade it or give it away for 12 months.

so no bpm added either ? That link didn't work.

thanks

I doubt you'll be able to skirt the BPM. Haven't checked on that yet.

Weird, worked for me but resolves to a different URL now:

You're welcome...

An auto isn't all that bad, especially in a '95 V6. I should know, I use to own one. :)

Just upgrade the fluid to Merc> Add to that the fact I'm not all that fond of an auto
