Default Customs question

I have an Alfa ( over 15 years old) and this was declared when I 1st landed and vague paperwork was completed about the car but no reg details or serial numbers. I am looking to get rid, as it is becoming problematic and perhaps bringing another vehicle instead, does anyone see a problem with this?

Thanks for the replies in advance!

There is a lot of info on the regarding the imporatation of vehicles. A good place to start is RIV and the CBSA as this will answer your questions

Default Re: Customs question

Thanks for the links, I can't find the answer and I think I need the help of FL.

My specifics are as follows, I have had my car for four years, if I now change my car, having landed and having all the customs paperwork completed and dated last year, if I now change my car, the new cars v5 reg doc will have a date for this year, but my paperwork is dated lat year, is this likely to spook anyone? Am I allowed to bring in a different car now I have landed or am I stuck with my current Alfa?

Sorry to resurrect an older thread, still not got the definitive answer, whether that is positive or otherwise.

No, you can only import goods to follow that you owned and used prior to landing.
