Do I pay VRT importing a BMW i3 from GB?
Hello
I was planning on buying a 2016 BMW i3 from GB. I'm totally new to cars and don't really have a good idea on what I'm doing. The garage I'm buying it from has it listed for £7,000. I was just wondering how much VRT I would be paying for this car and any other expenses?
