Has anyone imported a classic from Italy?

[iDrive]

I'm looking for advice from anyone who has imported a classic from Italy recently - either sub 30 yr old or over

[Pericoloso]

There's a few threads in the deserted Italy forum down in the regional forums covering this...

Yes !!

Yes !!

Can you point me in the right direction for any advice please?

I've imported from the USA, but never from Europe, and Italy appears to be something of a pain to export from (plates etc)?

I'm looking at a Mk1 Panda 4x4 from southern Italy

Thank you

Bring it back on a trailer, do the NOVA, get it MOT'd fill in the DVLA form hey presto you are done. The only complicated bit with Italy is that the vendor has to surrender the registration which means you no plates on which to drive it back.
