Hi

First you have to be a Gibraltar resident to import a vehicle.

I believe for this vehicle the import duty will be 35% of the valuation given by a customs officer.

Where will you park a vehicle of this size?

You will have fun driving that around the streets of Gib

30% import duty on customs valuation. Then you have to pay for MOT £40-45.

Or you can pick up a car pretty cheap as people leave all the time and although they advertise them for high values when it comes down to parting with the cash you can get a good deal. Plus it will fit into a car parking space

The other thing to consider is - you don't need a car if you can walk - its helped me out no end, lost pounds.
