In Norway we pay an import duty on car parts made in UK (or Europe) of 0%,
but there is a general 23% value-added-tax (but there is no UK VAT). On
parts made outside Europe, the duty is approx. 4%.
This in contrast to taxation of complete (new) cars, which ends up in the
neighborhood of a whopping 100% (depending on engine/car size etc.)
So I guess LBCers aren't treated too badly (assuming that brand new
Rover/Honda/BMW/whatever don't count as an LBC).
