Export to UK from East Coast
I am planning to buy a "short" dog nose school bus and export it Ro-Ro to the UK to convert to what I believe (from Walter White) you call an RV! (I have previously done a "minivan" so have some idea of the conversion process and tax, registration and insurance is straightforward in the UK.
Reading this forum it would seem that the biggest problem I face is insurance, temporary plates, license, removing School lights etc. getting a bus to a freight forwarder at an East Coast Port. My plan is to firstly find a suitable port/freight forwarder first and then look for a bus in the same state from a dealer (so I can get it delivered to the Port)
My question is whether anyone on this forum has ever exported from USA to UK. Any gothas I should know about! I am looking at any of the following ports (Portland, Boston, Brunswick) since I have friends in Mass and Maine who could check it was not a dud before handing over the cash.
