Escalade has a kind of image that the Expedition does not have. They do not use Expedition in videoclips etc.

I've heard, that in one country you can make money with importing big and strong 4x4-cars (real ones, not lifestyle-garbage like SUV's or toys like a Suzuki Vitara): Iceland!

Everything over there is very expensive, cars too. So you shall get a high price for an private imported, strong 4x4-Jeep, like Land Rover, Landcruiser, Pajero, Mercedes G-Klasse and so on.
If you can discuss the price well, perhaps you have some money more afterwards, to lower the high ferry-boat-fares.
But before you should make a nice vacation-trip around that fascinating island.

Florida-registered Peugeot 406 Coupé

Cool! :wow: i'd surely love to own one if i lived there! by the way i dont understand the following:

Please note, eBay would not take the Vin as it was never a car registered in America. Thus the 1980 designation. But it is a 2000 year model.

What is it about?

I'd love to have one even here That 406 coupé is really good-looking

The thing about the VIN is that on Ebay Motors USA you have to put the VIN of the vehicle in a field, so it automatically gets some info (like the year I guess). But VIN of cars which were never registered in USA are not accepted, so the car is shown with "1980" as model-year in front of "Peugeot".

And why does it show it as a 1980 number instead of leaving it in blank?

I guess it is a bug of Ebay, how can I know

nice

The 406, the Twingo and the XM are all registered in Florida. Perhaps the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles has a more relaxed attitude towards non-US model cars.

I re-up this topic:

The only US-specs Peugeot 205 GTI sold new back in time Peugeot was selling cars in USA: (pic from last year)

There are comments on Forum Auto saying that this 205 might have been imported privately from Switzerland, which, like the US, required catalytic converters before France did. (It has a Swiss dealer sticker on the back window.) Apparently the Citroen CXs imported by CXA were sourced from Switzerland.

Nice link. The postcards reminding me to a friend. He has the world's biggest collection (resp.the only one) of postcards with K 70 on.

That black BX is at a college in Québec, Canada. It surely has a francophile owner.

Hadn't he to change the plates?
I don't know the Canadian rules about that.

The BX has a Quebec plate at the back. Quebec doesn't issue front plates, so the owner kept the French front plate for fun.

Quebec, Alberta, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland & Labrador and all the territories do not require front license plates, so you can put a custom plate up front if you wanted.
