That's brilliant, thanks very much.
Spotted some crackers already 😋

Are you looking to buy one and export it to the UK?

If you are planning to register it in a country on the continent then also keep in mind the road tax. In the Netherlands the road tax for a Patrol is around £2500

a year. Other countries may be lower but keep this in mind if you are deciding where to register it.

Well, here's my plan. Any info greatfully received.
I'm thinking about buying a LWB lhd trol preferably from Denmark.
Bring it back here for a full resto. Then drive back through Eutope and Denmark and then ferry to Iceland. Then sell it there, travelling around while waiting for a deal.

Sounds like a brilliant plan! One of my colleagues has just taken a year of unpaid leave, bought a Toyota Landcruiser and is planning to drive around the world with her family.

If you are planning on selling the car in Denmark then I assume that you try to keep it on local plates?

I am not sure about Denmark but in Germany to buy a car you must have a local address. So it is not possible for a Brit to buy a German car unless you can use somebody else’s address, as you can’t use your UK address.

I am sure that you have done your homework but just wanted to give you a heads up.

I'm literally just covering my homework book now 🙃
There's a political/historical connection between Denmark and Iceland. I hope to wangle the purchase via friends in Denmark but actually sell in Iceland.

Please keep a diary on here of your trip! The same goes for the resto of the Patrol.
