Very cheap cars in Poland and the Baltic States. This is due to the fact that the poles are buying in all of Europe broken and stolen cars. Restore and sell them second hand. Be careful when buying a car there.

The title says it all  Grin

What is cheapest country in Europe to buy and maintain a car?

New or used?

Taxes?

Insurance?





So finally, did you choose a country to register the car ?

You can buy a car cheap from another country and have them ship it to the states.

You realize that you need homologation for that car? That means car must be checked if that model is fine to drive on the US roads...

That's doable if it's over 25 years old. If it's younger, then you may as well push it back into the sea.

(...) After that if they know you've been driving around all that time (...)

How would they know?

If they stopped you, had a look at your ID and you were resident in that country since forever?

If you go to a poverty place to avoid taxes with a luxury car you are going to get your car wreckd.
If you want to have a luxury car you need to live in a rich place.

No, I won't move and I won't live in the car  Wink Grin

I'm just gathering information on the subject.

Inside Schengen Area you can move almost without constraints so in theory it should be possible to buy and register (or rent or something else) in one country and use the car in another country.


Most countries will have rules about reregistering the car on their plates if you're resident there after a period of time. In the UK it's six months. After that if they know you've been driving around all that time on foreign plates, and they can be arsed, they'll take your car away and crush it.

The UK is ludicrously cheap for old cars compared to the rest of Europe. Shame about the wheel being on the wrong side though.

for this kind of shopping, germany is very cheap.

Germany is a must because it's a huge market.

You can find anything you want in there.

Maybe it's not the cheapest place but it's surprisingly cheap maybe because german are rich and buy new cars devaluating the used car market.

I'm not so sure about the car taxes being cheap there though.

Probably the best is buying in Germany and register in a low-tax country.
