Thanx for your input, guys.
For the "old" engine:
- proof of "beyond repair" (how?)= no value = no import tax,
- if customs declare the dead engine of some value, the import tax would be for that value, I guess
- where import tax is higher than reasonable, the old engine could be shipped out without taxation (´cause went in non-taxed on the CdP)?
For the "new" engine:
- CdP needs update with new engine number. Do I have to send the CdP back home to the issuing ADAC, they change the engine number in the CdP and send the changed CdP back to me? Or who does this document change?
With a properly changed CdP, may I get the VAT for the new engine refunded, when leaving the country?
Never have seen a CdP live. Are the different sheets for each country fixed/attached to the part of the document, where the engine no. is written on? Or are they on different documents with the same serial no.?
The documents of my car do not contain the engine number, only the capacity & power. When the engine no. in the CdP is properly changed, I would not need to declare the new engine to home customs, only to the MOT (TÜV in Germany) to make it road legal when coming back.
Cheers
