scottboyd Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Just to jump in on the manta dany topic, yeah I was super disappointed when he said he doesn't ship to UK. My siser lives in Amsterdam so I had an order delivered to her address, the parts I got were: Radiator tray - I made one from a piece of steel but the Manta Dany version was only 25 euro so I thought I'd get it added to the order - https://www.mantadany.shop/p/kuehler-luftfuehrung-opel-manta-b Kck panels - mine are missing in both footwells - makes the interior look a little unfinished - https://www.mantadany.shop/p/a-saeulenverkleidung-fussraumverkleidung-opel-manta-b-ascona-b-gsi-gte Bundle - tank cover, boot carpet and tool holder. Didn't need the carpet but the bundle price was just a couple of euro more than the tank cover and the tool-box thingy which I really wanted (original version can be had on ebay at 160 euro but the whole repro bundle was slightly less than that) - https://www.mantadany.shop/p/kofferraum-set-3-teilig-teppich-tankabdeckung-und-kofferraumwanne So, long story made short, all sitting in Amsterdam and my sister will post to me in due course (she's not always as reliable as I'd like although in her defence she says the box is huge. However I just sent her a pair of Uggs and an advent calendar which she got on Monday so fingers crossed). Not sure what tax I'll pay on top but I wanted the parts so I'm cool with it. Some sorta club buy seems like a great idea, he does do reasonably priced repro pieces I think 🙂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-400 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Gonna jump also on this "Danny" topic. I live the neighbourhood of Antwerp (Belgium) and I always want to help. I got the advantage I speak German and I visit Germany on a regular base there I'm a member of the German "Opel400Club". The only thing that can be a spoiler is as Scottboyd wrote above are the taxes. About a year ago I ordered some gaskets from the UK and I paid more taxes than they were worth... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d even help drive the van 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Is there anyway of avoiding taxes etc, say the bulk order was transported on a pallet, to a business address? Any would mantadany offer discount to omoc members? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessopia74 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) No TAX , just VAT. But in reality, the parts should be zero rated from the local VAT for export . Sadly not many( if any?) of the EU shops are geared for this yet, so it's effectively paid twice 😬 If a VAT Ltd co. Was to import them, it could be a saving as the EU part can be offset. I am happy to look into this if no one else has a company that pays a substantial amount t if VAT and works in the EMEA through other means, so long as the invoice is set to the right Company details an intermediate shipping agent is of no disadvantage , other than the double costs. I will be going to Ireland for a couple of days sometime after Christmas for business as it happens, however nothing solid yet. I have nothing scheduled for Holland next year sadly. Also, the 'personal' import value can be much higher than you expect. http://brexitlegalguide.co.uk/personal-imports-2021-uk-guidance/ https://www.trade-tariff.service.gov.uk/headings/8708 Another loophole is Ireland/NI route, just double postage ofc.
