Getting into the USA

[adam.garside@uk.ibm.com (Adam J Garside)]

Thats what I was thinking, I could spend the next few months trawling r=
ound
scrap yards picking up Bits and pieces then tell customs that they're
presents for all my US friends! Apparantly bringing a car over is a maj=
or
hassle, it has to be steam cleaned to remove any possible agricultural
contaminent and pass various emissions laws, It has no Cat so it depend=
s on
how tough US emission laws are. It'd probably cost a fortune, depends o=
n my
moving budget I suppose.

With that size of a container you could bring a LOT more over than your=

car!
I'd say start taking orders on stuff and more than likely your car may =
come
over cheap or maybe even free!  We never said it would be cheap to move=
 to
the U.S.!!  But, it is one great country it's the people you gotta watc=
h
out
for! (well, some of them!)

I'd like to bring it over, but I think it's a major hassle. I'm more li=
kely
just to bring over my euro bumpers and lights.
I did a bit of research (my mate works at an international removals
company) It costs =A33000 ($4728.72) to get sole use of a 20 foot conta=
iner,
bit expensive to bring over an =A3850 ($1339.76) Scala!  I suppose I co=
uld
make a raft to get over on like the Haitian's do, or drive it over the
north pole. Yes! Furthest North a Scirocco's ever been? That'd be an
accolade to go for!

If I had the Cash I'd love to bring over a 2.0 16v Turbo Vauxhall Nova,=

really show those US V8 Boys what a euro 4 cylinder can do!! 250-300bhp=
 in
something as small as a Geo Metro!  and the best bit.................th=
ey
wouldn't know what the f*ck it was!!  ha  ha  ha
