Wanted: RN110 Hilux, Netherlands
Hi
I'm new to the Netherlands and thought I might get some tips here...
I'm looking for a Toyota Hilux RN110L
That's a Left-hand drive 4WD, 1991-97 Xtra cab with the 22-RE 2.4L EFI petrol engine. I do not want a diesel.
I'm looking for one registered in the Netherlands as I expect it will be ruinously expensive to register one here from, say, Germany.
Cars here are ridiculously expensive compared to my native UK!!
I'm looking for one in good condition. I own a mint LN105R and am quite specific about the model I want.
So far I've looked at AutoScout24 – Uw tweedehands auto of occasion kopen en gratis verkopen and Used Cars, New cars, Used vehicles, Cars for sale, Car finder - OOYYO and just see diesels...
Does anyone know where else I might look?
I know this is a rare car, especially in good condition (though they tend to be far better looked-after than in the UK), but I am prepared to wait for a good one. It would be nice to have one by early 2016.
Thanks
EO

Hi,
it shouldn't be a problem to buy one outside of the NL, as you mentioned for example in Germany. It should be straight forward to get it registered there.
I just know that it is no problem the other way, buy in NL and register in Germany. At your search in autoscout24 you can include the countries such as Germany or Belgium in your list.

Thanks guys, but NL import taxes are unbelievably high, especially for older, more polluting vehicles  I'll have to look at keeping it registered in Germany.
The one in Poland is the only RN110 and it's a bit tired looking. Last year i did a complete restoration on my diesel Hilux... I don't wish to repeat it!
Also been looking at the slightly more modern and powerful RZN173...

Between EU countries no import tax, i don't know where you got this info but it is flauwekul (nonsens).

Perhaps it's not import tax, but there is some kind of tax payment (BPM?) which would be very high (why are used cars in the Netherlands are much more expensive than in Germany, almost double the price that they are in the UK??)
Private motor vehicle and motorcycle tax (bpm)

Are you having a laugh??
Try importing a vehicle into Ireland from anywhere in the EU for example. Or Spain.
Of course they aren't import taxes, they are 'eco taxes'. Just for you information, in Ireland it s called VRT and is charged on an imaginary 'list price' for the vehicle created by revenue, not even by what the vehicle actually cost.
AFAIK Netherlands is actually a higher tax economy (if such a thing is possible).
Sorry for the hijack.
Would it not be easier to put UK plates on it and avoid all the hassle, thereby leaving your search Europe wide?

Jervig, with all due respect this is the statement I replied to. Not the Netherlands specific part.
And that statement is totally bogus. I cited Ireland as an example and two seconds on google will show you what 'VRT' is. An emissions based 'eco' tax on NEW and USED car imports, applicable to ALL cars between new and 30 years old imported to Ireland.
SO I think you will find my facts were quite correct.
