[DML] Re: High Import Tax in Canada? Look to Norway (not) or Poland (even more NOT)



Hi all,
Guys! That is just problem of money! More or less, but it's 'just'(!) money.
In my case it's more complicated. I am trying to ship my D to Poland. Our
law does not allow anyone to import a car that is more than 10 years old. It
doesn't matter what car it is.... classic or not. I doesn't matter how much
one is willing to pay..... you CAN'T do it.
Right now I'm trying to find a way to go around that stupid law... there's
got to be a way.
Good luck to you....
