Exporting a kombi from Aus to UK


  

lloydi -> Exporting a kombi from Aus to UK (8/15/2004 5:57:25 AM)

Sorry if this is not the right forum, but I am a newcomer ... and I couldn't see anything more appropriate. So here goes:



I am considering ecporting a Kombi from Aus to UK and have a whole heap
of questions. If anyone can help answer *any* of them I'd really
appreciate it!



* Will I need to change the odometer/speedo for UK use? Currently it is recording Kms and Km/h?

* When the van arrives in the UK, can it be driven away on temporary plates, or do you have to trailer it away?

* Is the van going to need any kind of road-worthy certificate before
leaving Aus, or is it a case of putting it in a container and worrying
about that aspect once it arrives in the UK (an MoT test)

* What documentation is usually required for exporting a vehicle from Aus to UK?

* Is the cost of export calculated on size (diensions) of the vehicle or weight?

* Can I put other items inside the van to be shipped back too (treating the van like a rather large shipping container itself!)

* How long does it normally take to ship from Aus to UK?

* Do I need to notify WA Transport or QLD Transport departments? (The
van has a QLD registration, but I am in WA, and that will be where it
would ship from)
