Can anyone share any experiences of buying a 2nd Hand Car in TRNC and where would be the best place to start looking?

Don't expect British Trading Standards to apply in TRNC, or RoC!



Best to buy privately from a returning expat - there are plenty of them for one reason, or another.

I with message 2, I have just bought 2 cars privately, no problems and cheaper than a dealer.

Hi Kenny

I saw a really good bargain today advertised in Coffee World...



2005 model Nissan Note (a great medium size lugger) only 33,000 km and £8,500 STG...



OK that seems like a top end price but do your homework here and you will see that it's a bargain, low mileage and they are great cars... we rented one in the UK and the kids loved it



Tel 0533 887 1973 sorry I don't know the seller's name but they are off to the UK soon.
