Mustangs from Lithuania

[sideways sid]

Saw these parked in London - is the owner(s) on PH?

Must have been quite an adventure bringing these to UK from Lithuania - there must be a story.

Probably a car transporter lol ... Recently sold my s6 and that was being exported to Lithuania along with a raft of other 04-08 plate Audis ... Got a shock when a full blown car transporter turned up in the street to collect it!

Saw three Germans each in a Delorean last week, they were on a round the world tour finishing in Belfast, that is a brave trip!

Yes be careful!! they are very good at importing them without paying the correct duty and EU VAT from the US mostly dammaged and then reapairing which they seem good at....
I know people one who was caught out and had a large sum to pay to get a late mustang UK reg the other fella did a carfax check and found it had a total loss salvage title .......

If it's on LT plates, then you can import it into the UK with no VAT and no duty - what with LT being in the EU. If LT have failed to charge whoever imported it from the US correctly, that's their problem.

<shrug> Buy anything expensive, do research on it first. A UK HPI will never find the pre-import history of anything, no matter where it's been imported from.
