Pickles Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 [quote user="crossy67"]Ta Pickles. I don't suppose you know how long it takes to get these plates, I am thinking of flying to Brussels and driving to Amsterdam for a night then going to get the car and driving back. I could swap things about a bit so I could get the plates applied for on the first day if it were possible.[/quote]I don't have personal experience but this is an option that I researched. I believe that if all of the car's documentation is in order -- including up to date Dutch MOT equivalent etc, then you can get the plates issued immediately by the vehicle registration office.RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy67 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Great news thanks so much. I will update everyone as soon as I find out.

crossy67 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I have had a day off today, I just couldn't bare another day working, especially after the storms kept me awake most of last night.[IMG]http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u263/crossy67/PICT0507.jpg[/IMG]Any one know the process for buying from Belgium? I have found a great contact to buy from the NL but the car I wanted there turned out to have 100k more on it than advertised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilko Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I'm looking at buying a Golf in Germany but not from a garage. It's a 2008 car.Do I need a COC and how do I prove that the VAT has been prior paid when I register in France. Thanks Wilko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Yes you will need a C of C but as the vehicle is more than 6 months old tax issues simply do not arise. Whom you buy it from is also irrelevant.The procedure is really no different to that for importing and registering a car from UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
