Good luck. Hope there are several members on here that have bought similar cars in recent months and can get you the things you need. Would have been nice if you knew the requirements before you left the states.

Yeah, I agree it would have been so easy to get the cars appraised before I left. Unfortunately every time I called customs from the US, they said I just needed the bill of sale to calculate the tax and duties (mind you it is over 20%)

Look at the recycler and auto trader ads online. I live in Los Angeles California and there are deals to be had on those cars.

Select the ad you wish to present to them (several might be wise) and print it for submission.

That's the quickest way with the most control over content I can think of.

Good Luck!

Bluebook (online) will allow you to appraise your vehicle to buy or sell, one gives a lower price than the other.

Have you contacted the dealers you purchased from and requested they help you by providing a copy of their apprasal of the vehicles?

Okay, no more ideas. [:0)
