Ebay bargains from Denmark

Since you are from Sweden, i suppose you know how expensive cars are in Denmark. I suppose part price just reflects that.....
 
If people in Denmark (or Nordics) are prepared to pay those kind of prices then there is a nice business to be made bringing container loads of used 944 parts from the UK into Scandinavia. A used door in the UK is ~£30. In fact i might just start up a business doing exactly that.

I'm from the UK by the way!
 
Since DK is not in the eurozone, aren't their customs going to apply massive import duties?
 
I don't know because I live in Sweden but my guess would be that used goods are not subject to the same duties as new goods so there may be some potential worth investigating.

I know that when i went to Porsche centre Gothenburg to enquire about some parts prices, the parts advisor commented that he had someone on the phone that morning asking for a price for a new rear screen and it was 50,000 SEK so ~£5'000 / 6,000EUR to buy new from Porsche.

I think i will make contact with the Swedish Porsche club and see what those guys have to say on the subject and if it looks like there might be some mileage in it then I will investigate further.
 
I visited Denmark perhaps a dozen times in the past and remember ever seeing perhaps only two or three DK-registered Porsches up there, and they were recent models.
I would be curious to know how many 944s there may be, but I would guess there would be very few.

DK is politically a very green-oriented country with a brutal fiscal pressure and only the most wealthy may afford such cars - if they are even bothered, as it never appeared to me that there was any such thing as a car culture in DK, but perhaps I have not looked hard enough?
