Someone has suggested that to get top dollar for my super clean '75 1.8, I should try to sell it to someone in Europe. Is this feasible? What's the downside of a transaction like this? Thanks!

I've imported several vehicles from the USA over the last 30+ years. Never had any problems.
I bought my 914 from South Carolina - it was for sale on here. Messaged the owner, got all the info and photos I asked for and then asked for basic bank details for international transactions. Went on line and transferred $500 as a deposit (I do all my banking on line) and the next day contacted my bank to OK a transfer of $16,000. In the meantime, I contacted my usual shipping agent (Kingstown Shipping) who by coincidence had a partner office in Charleston SC. Owner lived 15 minutes away, so once he'd got the money (that same day...), he dropped the car and its title paperwork etc off at the shippers - three weeks later it was outside my house. It's so simple these days. |
