How much to import from NY? Their shipping estimation to the UK is ~$900, see: http://www.meritcars.com/shipping I haven't yet worked out the import costs for Germany, but I understand it's something like: (car price + shipping cost) +10% customs + 19% VAT - not sure which way round the customs and...

I'm no expert, but I saw this if anyone is interested. What looks to be a nice 1971 911T 2.2 for sale - they also have other Porsches. http://picasaweb.google.com/MeritCars/1971Porsche911TTarga13500 You can contact them via www.meritcars.com - they are based in New York. I don't know anything about ...

I may be wrong - but I think it's a US spec with the fog light added after market. The VIN suggests it's a Euro spec - WPO ZZZ 91 ZDS 102 886. She sent me a copy of the section of the Swiss registration document - I would attach it, but I don't know how to paste an image without a URL. is that the ...

On the other hand, you might end up with 3 years worth of evening/weekend work, disassembling, cleaning, restoring and buying buying buying parts and end up in the end with a splendid 911 that is totalling you 20000 euros on top of the purchase; you hating the thing and your wife ready to divorce y...

I've found a Swiss registered Euro spec. LHD 1984 911SC Coupe (Met. Bronze colour) for sale at a bargain price of £3100 (converting into UK pounds). The VIN says it is a 1983 model. The engine is not working because the car was stored for a while (not sure how long) in a barn. However, not long befo...

The seller was uncontactable - I think I'll stick to looking for a 911 or 912.

I've seen a 356 for sale that needs some restoration (see pics). It's up for €3950, which I think is a little cheap. I'll admit it, I'm a 356 virgin and don't know much about restoring them or what they're worth in this kind of state. I've seen fully restored 356 cabrios for €65k upwards which scare...
