Paphos People

We are moving over from UK can anyone tell me whether it would be cheaper to buy a 2nd hand car in UK and ship it over or to buy one in Cyrpus. If its shipping one oever what do we have to do Thank you

Here is the information from the Cyprus Government web site
http://www.mof.gov.cy/mof/customs/customs.nsf/ced07_en/ced07_en?OpenDocument

Happy reading

ps
There is also a section where you can email the government BUT don't know how long you might have to wait for a reply

one thing I do know is that you must have owned the car for no less than 6 months before you can ship it over.

That is only true if it is duty free.

Yes, a can of worms.
If a car is purchased duty free in the UK (an EU country) and transported to another EU country (Cyprus) surely the EU duty has been paid and what Cyprus seem to be playing on is the owners status in Cyprus ie resident or retired.

I have just had a quote for my old (1999) Merc A160 - £2400 transport only...

Now looking for a small auto to buy in Cyprus

With out getting too tecnical you should allow min €2000 to complet the process if you DIY . There are agents that will help but will cost you extra. The main consideration is that parts for european cars are hard work here and they are more rusty than Cyprus modles. Most car dealer are not importing as many from uk now (what dose that tell you) also the market price for registed and duty paid cars is lower than before
