Buying a car in the Bahamas

Hi,

To be able to move in the Bahamas, a lot of expatriates think of buying a car, whether new or second-hand.

What are the formalities to buy a vehicle in the Bahamas: car registration, insurance, etc.?

What are the relevant authorities or organizations to contact?

How long does it take and what are the associated costs?

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience,

we imported from Japan through Japanesecars.com and were absolutely delighted with the quality (grade 5). It was a bit nerve wracking waiting, sight unseen, for 6 weeks, but the car has been fantastic. Like new, low mileage.  Thoroughly recommended.
