Zeeshan from UK ( taking his AE86 to sweden soon!!!)

[kinghappychappy]

hi

Im Zeeshan. I bought my AE86 in July after looking for one for 3 years. It is 1987 Silver Corolla GT Coupe ( Levin style). I love it to bits!!


Now I have to go to Sweden for abt 14 months!!!

I'd like to take my car with me and register it there, does anyone know what the procedure is. How much import duty am I going to have to pay? Also how can I exchange my UK driving licence for a swedish one since i've learnt that i need a swedish licence to register my car.

Thanks in advance to any kind Swedish people who may help me. I'll be posting photographs of my car soon.

Hey Man,

Whow, 14 months huh, damn sounds like an awful lot of money to import a car so you can drive there. Shame you cant keep the car on UK tags but I remember some stupid law about 6 months maximum for that...

Cant help you out though. I know nothing about se

when registering in Sweden you car will need new new hadlights for Rights side driving - & the regisration will cost you about 300 pounds

insurance will be around 3-600 pounds for a year depending on what claims you choose

hehehe - well.. not really -about 250 E for 20 km/h over limit

& @ 31 km/h over speedlimit - you loose your licens.

Only if you have a swedish license, right? I remember the from when cannonball hit sweden that they still had their license.

Anyways, NICE to see another hachi here in sweden, if only for a while!
