Original 1997 993 Price

Okay, you thought you had it bad in the UK - well listen to this.

The Greek Government has an illegal registration tax for any car brought into Greece and registered here to drive locally. You can drive here for six months but after that you must remove the car for a further six months or pay an extortionate fine or, in the worst case, the car will be impounded and you can go to jail!!

The registration tax is an eye watering twenty percent - yes 20% - of the original purchase price.

My question is, does anyone on here know how to find out what the original purchase price of a 1997 993 C2S was and also what the original price of the 1997 C2 was? A base price with as few options as possible would be preferable.

The Greeks are not immune to the credit crunch and up until July 7th 2009 they've reduced this illegal tax to 10% of the original purchase price which - in a perverse way - makes it quite attractive to pay now, rather than risk not paying it and losing the car!!!

Anyone have the original prices or knows a URL where they can be found?

Cheers,

Jon


 
Thanks, that's a start but I really need to get the original price for my model or the C2 in 1997 and if possible the breakdown re taxes i.e. the base price, car tax, VAT etc. If I'm going to argue my case across here - and try and persuade them that paying tax on tax is one step too far - then an exact break down of the original purchase price is a must.

But thanks for the info - it at least means I know approximately how much I might have to pay. I would just add that every Greek customs office you speak to has a different price so as to make this exercise even more confusing.
