Importing to uk

If this is wrong section Admin please remove!

For the ones in the know please

I’ve bought the odd car and VW Camper over but this is another level of corse

I’m in the process of buying 2/3 Akers of land would love to escape the rat race a little before all our land is turned in to housing & houses

I see on this lovely forum buses are cheeper then the odd few that have been imported in to the uk if I spent $5000/$6500 us dollars 💵 to buy the bus

How much would I be looking on tax & shipping to the uk 🇬🇧

My hold up at the minute is buying the land to store the bus on that’s where I will do the conversation as I live in a built up area kind regards and thanks in advance any advice would be grateful & appreciated Cheers Split stop 🛑

There was a fellow on here who imported a short bus to the UK. I think his name was TimBrass.

Then like £20”000 plus with conversion cost on top I’m guessing that’s the same again Poss another £10”000 so uk rates like £50”000 grand might be a dream too far!!! 😢. Might end up doing a uk bus there’s no cool factor to them I’ve got a 62 Chevy C10 just sold my 56 tri chevy love the USA 🇺🇸 stuff TBH
eBay USA there are buses like $5000/$7000 US dollar
I need to up sticks to USA stuff my business & my off grid living dreams in the cold damp uk 😂
