Importing 2008 Toyota Camry Hybrid to the Netherlands

[smarties]

Hi Everyone,

My car just got loaded into the cargo today headed from the States to the Netherlands. My immigration lawyer gave me a long speech about how stupid I am to do it. Any of you guys have done this and any advice you could give me?

I am most concerned with cost of modifications that would be needed and what they would be, and the process of getting the car checked up to RDW standards.

Perhaps someone could share their experience?

why would you not just buy a diesel? lol

well, i can ask. i think they do not need modifications, just pay the tax.

Don't think I will have to pay the tax, but does anyone know whether they will need modifications?
