Anyone know this fellow?

[westcoastmarek]

I am still looking for a mk1 escort to bring to canada and i found this fellow in Germany who claims to export cars regularly. I have found his name mentioned on other forums and so he seems legit.

 

his contact info is

Jens E. Richter - Automobilexporte

www.car-exporter.de

www.richterimpex.de

 

Has anyone dealt with him by chance?

 

thanks, marek

I'm pretty sure we can export out

I can certainly give you a price to ship to Canada, just PM me with your location etc and I'll get an idea of costs.

Thanks for your replies.

 

I seem to have two issues in importing a car. First, the uk gov website I was reading made it sound like in order to export a car i have to buy it in person from a registered export retailer. Second, I am on the west coast of canada so direct shipping is an issue. Although, I do have a brother in Halifax and I may be able to put temp insurance on the car and drive it to bc, a bit dodgy with a 40-year old car. shipping from Halifax to Victoria will set me back $2K.

 

I will send you guys a pm....

btw, sound like there some cheap lhd parts kicking around the uk from conversions... what would it cost to convert rhd to lhd? i understand that cars coming to canada must be empty. ie, no spares on board
