Tee from China Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Just found this nice 99 black Supra that Jurgen was selling for £12995 which has ended up in Denmark for sale at 135000 - 165000 Dk which works out at £15954 - 19500! Even using all his pictures in the ad too, so either the C-O-L is very high or the price is hiked for a big profit http://www.japanerimport.dk/Bil.aspx?BilId=261 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 The price of the car itself isn't the only factor, I believe they have to pay some rather hefty taxes and things when they buy a vehicle, even more so when it's a brand new one.

michael Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 If I moved to Denmark and decided to bring my UK car with me would I still have pay this fee? How would they decide how much the car cost if I didn't sell it to myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would they decide how much the car cost if I didn't sell it to myself? You would need to get the car trough danish MOT. Then the place where they do the MOT will fill out a form that describe mileage, condition, equipment and so on. And then you go to the tax office and they estimate what the tax you should pay...

Tee from China Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 Anybody figure out why Denmark is so expensive? Seems more expensive than the other Scandinavian countries to live in.Do they all earn mega money to pay such high taxes? I though the UK was an expensive place to live - glad Im in China and not with the Danes!!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Denmark, with a mixed market capitalist economy and a large welfare state, ranks as having the world's highest level of income equality. Denmark has the best business climate in the world, according to the U.S. business magazine Forbes. From 2006 to 2008, surveys ranked Denmark as "the happiest place in the world," based on standards of health, welfare, and education. The 2009 Global Peace Index survey ranks Denmark as the second most peaceful country in the world, after New Zealand. Denmark was ranked as the least corrupt country in the world in the 2008 Corruption Perceptions Index, sharing a top position with Sweden and New Zealand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denmark Sounds nice enough, I hear the bacon isn't as good as ours though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SupraGTE Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) Nordics is expensive to live, Finland and Denmark both have high car taxes when i lived there i complained allot about how unfair it is when looking at car prices in UK,Belgium, rest of europe no lived here for a few years and now i really would not want to change anything. example Finland -almost 99% free healthcare -dentist free up to 19 years -mom can stay home almost one year with baby with pay -father 1 month -roads are allot stronger and expensiver to handle cold and warm weather -technology more advanced with electronical IDs ,internet services from goverment takes me 5 min to change my adress and inform goverment and i dont need to take my ass up from the soffa:) -goverment /state needs to find a childcare place for your kid -schools are free -yearly tax on car is 90gbp even if it is a ferrari -no roadtax (you basiclly pay everything when you by the car in the tax) and so on and on so there are good and bad things in different places , cant eat and have the cake left Edited February 23, 2010 by SupraGTE (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
