    It’s Kenya. And I cover it. And no there’s no vat. It’s a uk car that went to Kenya and came back home :-)

    That's the game we're playing - "hoping" and "getting" may be a little off..... I have a guy in Kenya tomorrow allegedly coming to "do a deal", so I guess we'll see. Although at this rate, bringing it back and using it feels better, it may take...

    Agree SA is an option. No they don’t let you claim back - don’t pay duty back into UK as returning ex pat but KRA in Kenya never give cash back :-)

    SA could be your best bet. Can you claim the Kenyan duty back if you perm export it CMR?

    Think I'm going to change both UK and Kenya adverts to OFFERS, as well as put up in SA (they have money and are mad overlanders) and see where things go..... the joy of Landy ownership when things go a bit wrong :-)

    It is difficult CMR, your problem is that any car in Kenya is expensive. The new price plus the duty, even on secondhand cars means taking them elsewhere and selling them isn’t economically viable. 12M KES is £69,096 according to xe.com today...

    Ahhhh, understood, my apologies once again. My Mk1 started as a 200TDi but now has an auto 3.9 V8 EFi (with a Mk1 type gearchange), possibly from a Range Rover, so it is a bit of a crossover. I guess that is why the Mk2 wiring diagram seems to...

    Apologies, it is on my Mk1, but agreed, it could be on numerous Landies. Plot thickens a little. The black and white pair are closed with key in 1, 2 & 3 but not 0 so that makes sense for key in sensor. Guessing I can just solder those...
