hey Dirkies, could you give me some insights into this non-VAT transaction? What is Swiss tourist plate and are you able NOT to pay VAT...

to get an idea of the "VAT-evasive" system in the EU

@ Dirkies

If a company sell's a car there is a possibilility to buy it without tax.

But in my case, my car is my "private" car and I've paid the VAT and I'll certainly not sell it without

.

Full options is 108°342€ without reduction because I gave my M3 CSL to my dealer. 10%, you should show that.

Hey Rem, this is what they call a legal backdoor ;-)

But I wasn't referring to your car, just heard this from a guy living in Monaco how he did with his Ferrari's...!!

Hmmm, I wonder what option I missed, I only got to 107K.
Not sure what you mean with 'without reduction because I gave my M3 CSL' ???
You mean you didn't get anything??? That's a total rip-off!

10% sure, I already got 9% on my 2nd M3 (8% on my 1st M3) and for the M5, 10 should be no problem for the 5 series 'I was told', maybe also because I do know the dealer pretty well!! Of course I wait till 2006 to get one, so the 'eager' to get one as the first often is a disadvantage for getting cool reductions, since they know you'd take it anyway, whatever the price.

Hi Joe. There are quite a number of M cars here in Manila. The one that was delivered to me was the very first E60 M5 here in the Philippines. The next one is arriving in a year, I think. Is your hometown Cebu? I think there are a few M's there as well. Look in motioncars.com. The pics of my M are there under interact OMG WTF an M5. It was a friend of mine who took the first pics and posted them. When are you coming back to manila?

Annual roadtax is a joke (under 200€)

Now dealers here give serious reductions to existing customer (you get 10% on a 5 series without too much effort, no matter if it is M or a 525!) so the price quoted here is very acceptable

Now go for a Swiss tourist plate and you even don't pay VAT

Due to the high interest, the standard equipment e60 m5 is worth 144,0% at the moment in Germany. (Schwacke) that means, the 86200€ Base Price is worth 124128€... In about a year, the price will fall to 110% and when the market is full, the normal anti-worth factor turns in (remember E39 M5)
