Hi

First you have to be a Gibraltar resident to import a vehicle.

I believe for this vehicle the import duty will be 35% of the valuation given by a customs officer.

Where will you park a vehicle of this size?

You will have fun driving that around the streets of Gib

30% import duty on customs valuation.聽聽Then you have to pay for MOT 拢40-45.聽聽

Or you can pick up a car pretty cheap as people leave all the time and although they advertise them for high values when it comes down to parting with the cash you can get a good deal.聽聽Plus it will fit into a car parking space

The other thing to consider is - you don't need a car if you can walk - its helped me out no end, lost pounds.
