Thanks for the replies. My focus would be on classic stuff, I understand VAT is much lower on anything 30 years old. Brexit has to sort itself out before I do a thing, agreed. The original plan was to export, then import back to the US keeping the funds tied up in inventory. Sadly, Europe was going to be a secondary market but who the hell knows what will happen now. Agreed, if the rate takes a dive coming over and spending there to bring back to the US is a consideration. Can anyone shed some light on these areas: How many cars can you sell as "personal" vehicles? Do the vehicles have to be registered in my name to bring them in, or is sending them with title paperwork sufficient? What are the costs and availability of a trader plate? Appreciate all the help and good luck with Brexit, seems like a right cock up from over here.

I'm a car dealer in the States, have UK citizenship, (born in England). I'm exploring an export business sending American cars back to England. Shipping VAT import fees seem pretty straight forward but unclear of the legal requirements to sell in the UK. For starters I'd likely do less than 10 cars a year. Have storage facilities in England, don't need a designated car lot/dealership. Any advice would be appreciated!
