Importing a Ford Bronco

Never officially sold here, parts are the ongoing question, and it is still the most fun you can have importing something under €90,000.

Never officially sold in Europe.

Every Bronco here is an import, which is why they hold their value and why the paperwork matters. With no European CO₂ figure the power-based substitute may apply, and on a Bronco that is the difference between a sensible import and an expensive lesson.

Why the CO₂ figure decides the price

Austria charges NoVA on a car's CO₂ emissions, and it will not accept the American EPA number. The law works down a ladder: a WLTP figure if one exists, otherwise a European NEFZ figure multiplied by 1.27, and failing both a substitute of engine power in kilowatts × 2. That last step is not a formality — on a powerful car it can add tens of thousands of euro, and it is the single largest variable in any American import.

Because this model has no European homologation, that figure may not exist for the exact car you want — which is why we establish the basis in writing before anyone commits to anything.

What we will not do

We will not send you a landed price for a car whose CO₂ basis has not been settled. A number we might have to raise by fifty thousand euro is worse than no number at all. Ask us about a specific car and you get the basis, the calculation and a firm figure within one working day.

Work it out yourself

The import calculator runs the same engine we use, at today's ECB exchange rate. Put in the US asking price and it will show you the duty, the VAT and both NoVA outcomes — with a figure, and with the substitute — so you can see the size of the gap for yourself.

Tell us the car and we will establish what Austria will actually charge on it, in writing, before you commit to anything.
