Hello from up in Yorkshire, soon to be Holland
« on: 03 September 2008, 22:06 »
Hello from up in Yorkshire.

I'm about to move to Holland with work and will be needing a car there, so due to their tax rules, high 2nd hand car prices and import tax I've decideding to sell my Subaru Legacy GT-B (280bhp, 4x4, twin turbo and Bilstein suspension) and plan on buy a Mk3 Golf out there, so look out for the questions later. Been reading through this forum and looks pretty useful.

Well I'll still be on here, as I can't speak dutch so doubt any dutch forum is going to be any use!

Cheers for the welcome.

I'll be moving to Haarlem for the first 18 months ish then down to Rotterdam for a further 18 months ish. Cheers for the offer on paperwork, should all be ok as I've a relocation agent & HR department to help me, but if I need any automotive advice I'll let you know.

BTW do you know of any track day organisers at Assen, both Bike and Car?
