NOTE : IMPORTANT INFO FOR FOREIGN BUYERS.
If the car is sold outside Sweden/Export, registration plates will be removed. It is then up to you as the buyer to bring your own registration plates or apply for temporary registration plates from the Swedish Transport Agency.
Registration documents will be sent by letter to the buyer after delivery.
Foreign buyers must email the responsible administrator for time for delivery.
If the buyer does not come himself, the buyer must email who is coming and the person's driver's license and pick up the vehicle. If this is not done, the vehicle will not be released.
The shipping company must present e.g. the invoice for the vehicle purchase so that we know what must be handed out.
The shipping company should have its own ramps.
Foreign buyers can arrange shipping themselves. Example: Eurotransport
