Mick

The problems you will have with the car will depend on its engine size. You will need to pay duty on the car and the bigger the engine the more the duty.

Checkout this link for more details:

I imported a car 4 years ago. PM me if you want more info.

Good luck with the move from a fellow tyke!

B&B is a good idea, There is a magazine called "The grapevine" you could place an ad in there or something.
Where will you be living? we have two villas and two town houses available for rent, pm me if you need to know more info okay.
Bringing children with you?

Why is it a good idea? There are stacks of places to stay. How will they advertise? People dont come over for one night-3 nights they come over for one or two weeks and stay in private villas/apartments or hotels. Not sure myself.

Wrong as usual Z4... :roll:

I have a customer that runs a very successful B & B in the Limassol district.

mickhaigh, if you contact me by PM (after you have made a number of posts) I will give you their contact details and web site.

Hi all thanks for the replies.
Hi Baby yes i have read the grapevine and thought of putting add in there. The Vila is just pass the Helios Bay hotel 4km from Paphos and about the same to Coral Bay just set off the main road (ideal to catch bus) It is about 150mts from nice sandy little beach. The children are grow up 18 and 20 and are stopping at home they may follow on later.
Lee the car is a ltr Freelander and il pm you later if you don't mind Just got up and getting ready to go tile a bathroom.
Z4 Don't you think i haven't looked into this.There's always one that will try to pull others down to there level.
