Exporting to the Channel Islands

(1/2) > >>

3laner:
A guy from the Channel islands has made me an offer on my truck. I have said that I will need to see proof of address to put  on the V5 and be payed by cash or a bankers draft which I will get checked by a bank. Are there any implications to me of him taking the car back to the channel islands.  How else can I be cautious?

If he turns up at your house with a bag full of cash then i wouldnt care what he writes on the log book as long as when i send it off its not in my name.

Lord Shagg-Pyle:
You may need to check with Customs about selling the car to someone in the Channel Islands. There may be tax implications.

V8MoneyPit:
Assuming it's a private sale and the buyer is sorting all the export documantation, it should be just like any other sale. It is up to the buyer to ensure he has all the export documentation in place.

If you are exporting it and charging the costs on, you should talk to Customs & Excise first. They will help with what is needed.

I would choose the former. Let the buyer sort it all out.

Tommo:
the buyer should know much more about it than any of us anyway. i should imagine they do it all the time people on the channel islands.
