Hi there
I am looking to buy a 1994 2.5 TDI VW California camper van (€8K with 250,000KM on the clock) in Germany/Switzerland and use it as my weekend vehicle traveling around Switzerland and Central Europe on our holidays- does anyone know about insurance and import issues I could face?

I am moving to Switzerland in October and am trying to research online.

I have an open claim on my insurance here in Ireland which is due to be settled end of next year will that affect things too?
Thanks in advance

Hi, any feedback on this? I'm just about to buy a VW 2007 T5 LHD from the UK. Paying gbp7k for it but have to convert to a camper myself.

Check that you can registrer it here first as they are very anal about anything non standard .
