Re: [doc] How to minimize expenses on importing a Delorean to the UK? Help



Hi Joseph,

I'm with Martin on this one. I also imported a DeLorean from the US
a few years back (two actually). The process was simple and never
more than $1500 in shipping. Certainly it cost a few quid this side
to sort paperwork and taxes but nothing sky high.
