Post by: Ashar on January 15, 2006, 09:32:17 PM

Hi

Can anyone tell me for how much I can sell my 1942 BSA M20?Its in immaculate condition with all the original parts.

Can someone also suggest a customs clearing agent for the import of this bike?

Cheers!!!

I would say that it would be worth somewhere between £2200 and £2800 as that is what I have seen them advertised for recently.

Would itbe a problem to get it into the UK? And do you know how much duty I wouldhave to pay on it?

I am not sure exactly but the rate of duty is lower if it is imported as a 'historic vehicle' I believe?
