Have a look for the many previous posts on this subject using the search facility,

If the engine is less than a 1.6 it's not much of a problem .

Ohh...no way! That wasn't my intetion.
I allready looked on the forum for similar posts. The conclusion is "not to bring the car." I would have to pay to much taxes for it.

I brought 2 cars from the UK and paid no taxes, only registration. I can also sell them as duty paid when I want to.

Read the regulations.

I see. I have studied this matter, I think I'm missing something. If you have time can you please guide me to see how much the duty would be?

Thanks in advance!

If you are an EU citizen, the car was bought in the EU and normal tax was paid, you are moving permanently to live in Cyprus, you only pay registration. Go to www.mof.gov.cy and have a search around, it is there somewhere.

Thanks for help CBBB :)
I have found this link http://www.paphosfinder.com/car/car-reg ... cyprus.htm regarding car registration fees. Done the math, Iwould have to pay just 100 euro for it, which would be great :D
