Is there a used car dealer in Germany who will ship to Atlantic Canada?

Question

Well, even though Geoff S. didn't actually answer my question. (I still need a website name for a Used Car Dealer in Germany who shprehenze English) his answer is raising the bar for anypne who answers on ASK!! This is an amazing answer and no offence to anyone who actually gives me an English speaking website name for a Car dealer in Germany, but no matter what you say, I'm giving Geoff S. the points for best answer. That was a lot of effort!

Answer 1

There aren't many used car dealers in Germany who specialize in transatlantic export like there are in Japan.  However you can usually get the shipping company to recommend a broker who would get the car from the dealer to the ship and take care of port expenses.  Look for freight companies who have ro-ro (roll on/roll off) ships rather than putting the vehicle in a container.  It'll save you a lot of money.  Hapag-Lloyd provides service from Bremerhaven to Halifax.  It's the  Pacific Atlantic Express / PAX line.  Here's the page for that route.  Also click on contact for contact information:

After further reading it appears that Hapag Lloyd is capable of handling the logistics so they can draw you up a quote of what it would cost for them to go pick up the car for you from the dealership, put it on the boat and ship it to Halifax.  Also note that when importing vehicles into Canada, they must either have been made for the North American market or are over 15 years old from the date of manufacture.  Otherwise you may have to pay for modifications to be made before you're allowed to import it to Canada.  Don't forget you will also have to pay duty and HST.
