Do they have the same attitude in the USA as other abroadians - ie, No, you can't change anything? I assume not given the number of hot rods about. Does stuff have an annual emissions test a la the MOT? |
going to kill every pedestrian you pass, and meets the exhaust
emissions levels, you can do most things. Why d'you ask anyway? I'm
all interested now! (nosey bastard).

and some don't even limit their residents right to drive that strictly.

Broadly, so long as it's not going to kill every pedestrian you pass, and meets the exhaust emissions levels, you can do most things. Why d'you ask anyway? I'm all interested now! (nosey bastard). |

Just thinking that I could move there in a year or ten, and wondering if the car could come too... |
scheme where individual imports are allowed - that's how Bill Gates
got his 959 street legal apparently. I suppose you'd be best off
asking in some group with a higher yank content really! In Canada you
can get pretty much whatever you want in - if it's anything like it
was when I was there, you don't even need insurance if it's registered
in Alberta!

Where abouts are you thinking of though? They have a similar scheme where individual imports are allowed - that's how Bill Gates got his 959 street legal apparently.

homologation specials etc. - less than 500 ever made. OTOH a 1.8T MK2 Golf
would go well and hit emissions regs...

That's show or display vehicles apparently, and that means your serious homologation specials etc. - less than 500 ever made. |
