I have a question,, I know I know I read all the other threads except i'm confused. I have been living in Luzern bout 3 yrs. So before I came to CH, I was young (stupid too) and bought a car in usa (where I am from) and thought I would bring it here since I was gonna live here in Switzerland. So I shipped the car a Mitsubishi eclipse '98 to Macedonia because I was gonna go on vacation there for 2months and thought I would drive the car to Switzerland after I was done with my vacation. Well long story short, the car is in Macedonia for the past 3yrs in a garage not registered there. I called some people here I have forgotten who, (got some website and emailed them) and they told me I have to pay by the the weight of the car (meaning in customs) and I have to translate everything from english to german(meaning the checklist, meaning it has to meet CH standards and when it is inspected, whatever is written needs to be translated to german) I have no idea what I am suppose to do. I ask people but they all speak german and they all tell me to ask someone else. Can't I just bring the car to Switzerland and have someone check it here? and who? (but before I do, is it cheap to convert the lights and bla bla bla, cuz u know everything is expensive here in switzerland, AND DO I PAY BY THE WEIGHT???)
HAS ANYONE GONE THROUGH THIS,, IM JUST CONFUSED.
thank you,,, please be nice.
