As is wont to happen at this time of year I have started to think about my next project. I’ve been looking at importing an 850T from the US or Italy but the new customs regulation mean that it impossible for an individual to manage the customs declaration and thus adds quite a lot of cost to the whole process.
With this in mind I thought I’d see if anybody was think of selling a bike in the UK that would be suitable.
I’m really looking for an unrestored bike but will consider anything that has the correct tinware.
Cheers Everyone,
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
The cost for the company to submit the forms to HMRC on your behalf is minimal and very easy to do, I’ve just done it. Your greatest cost will be the VAT and import duty which will depend on the motorcycles value.
Thanks I’ve seen both of these. They have been available for a long time (perhaps a year) and haven’t sold, mainly because of the price. The one bike I missed last summer was a restored Italian import advertised at £5K which sold after quite a while so I suspect that it went for between £4.5K and £5K. Prices are depressed at the moment so I would think a more realistic price for the top C&C one should be £4K but only if it is the very late '75 engine with oil filter. I also suspect that most sellers would rather keep than sell at current market prices. (Not unreasonably)
Hello Simon,
I have a cheap T3 for sale, garden find, v scruffy but a good base for a restoration.
I may be able to find bits and pieces that are missing, from my years of guzzi ownership.
Regards,
David.
Oh ok, it’s on marketplace, £1,100,i have found some clocks and a headlight, which I am willing to include, I bought the bike as you see it.
Regards.
David.
