Eh Lucy, plisse splain dis to me.
I recently told a friend going to Italy for 3 weeks, be
independent and buy an R4 or Vespa to get around and then have his
Italian friend later sell it back into the market. He says - No
can do with the $1000 transfer tax and insurance and risk.
40 yrs ago, in Amsterdam, I bought a 500cc BSA for $100 and drove.
