Has anyone here ever brought a car back over like this?

Or is there a better way without shelling out 1000s to a company to bring it in for me

I know I'll still have to register it and deal with nova and pay import duties

I think there's more than one readers cars thread that starts like this if you have a hunt around the site a bit.

Interested to know - why go to italy for a 911? is this a very special 911 or cheaper than equivalent available 911's in the UK?

I believe they used to drive Ferraris up from Maranello in Ronnie Hoare's day.

Road trip from Italy sounds perfect to me.

It's very simple, you drive it back, within two weeks you'll need to fill out a NOVA pay any duty & get it MOT'd.

That's pretty much it.

Your challenge will be getting it out of Italy and navigating the local registration / export laws......
