About the 25 year rule for importing cars...
Discussion
Slightly embarrassed I can't remember much about this given my previous export business, never mind.
Anyway, I've got the itch to own some of the 80's yob mobiles I never owned or appreciated. At the minute I've got the inexplicable urge to put a sapphire Cosworth in the garage, and I've fancied another 205 GTI for a while.
Before I get my hopes up and start trawling eBay and autotrader, can someone refresh my memory? Tax and duty I'm cool with, but am I right in thinking it's just a case of get it here and get it registered of it's over 25?
Lastly, for now at least, what if the car is modified, any snagging points there? Smog stuff / annual inspections aren't a concern in Ohio, but anything federal I should know about?
