A car is only cheap abroad once you know what it costs to bring home.

The listing price is where the story starts, not where it ends. Registration tax, VAT, customs duty, shipping, inspection and plates decide whether an import is a bargain or an expensive lesson.

We work out the whole bill for your car and your route, and show the base and rate behind every line — so the number you see is one you can check, not one you have to trust.

No agent, no importer, no affiliate links. Just the maths, kept current with the official sources.
