I'm a little confused about the pricing. When you want a vehicle, do you let the importer know how much you are willing to pay at the auction, then add all the shipping and regulation prices on to that? What would an estimate of the shipping and regulatory costs to get to the Port of Vancouver and through customs?

@BradynJDM Жыл бұрын
So you'll want to get temporary insurance from your home province/territory and get the car registered first. SGI provided a 28-day permit which was plenty of time to drive it and get it safetied in Saskatchewan. Each province might be different so speak to your insurance provider. Then it's just a matter of hiring a tow company to retrieve the car from the port and driving it home.

I paid $10k cleared to Vancouver. Mileage was 78,000 KM. Passed SGI safety with flying colours. Version S is the sporty version and version L is the luxury version. The luxury version has leather seats as standard. However, version S has optional 18 inch wheels and firmer suspension. Racing pedals also an option on Version S.
