Support with purchase and modifications
Still need to buy the Abarth? SCL Rotterdam offers professional purchase guidance. We can even travel to the location with you to inspect the vehicle, so you make a well-informed decision. Does the car need to be modified for European roads? No problem. Our workshop handles all the necessary adjustments.
Cost of importing an Abarth
What the import costs depends on your specific wishes and the country of origin. Do you only need the transport arranged, or do you also want us to take care of customs clearance and registration? We recommend requesting a quote for an exact price. Thanks to our full service approach, you deal with just one party, which keeps both costs and communication simple.
Transport options for your Abarth
Container transport and Roll-on/Roll-off transport (Ro-Ro)
At SCL Rotterdam, we offer two types of transport: container transport and Roll-on/Roll-off transport. Container transport is the safest option and offers the best protection against weather and damage. For classic or rare Abarth models, this is our preferred choice. Ro-Ro transport is an efficient and cost-effective option for newer models. In all cases, we recommend taking out transport insurance, which we can arrange through our insurance partner.
Global ports and speed of delivery
We import vehicles from ports all over the world. Whether your Abarth is coming from Italy, the United Kingdom or the United States, we make it happen. Our experience with international transport routes ensures your car arrives in the Netherlands quickly and safely.
Advantages of SCL Rotterdam
Own storage facilities and fast customs clearance
We have our own facilities for safe storage and keep the entire customs process in-house. That makes the procedure significantly faster than working with multiple parties. With our full service package, we also take care of Dutch registration and tax declaration. We use a favourable calculation method to keep the tax liability as low as possible.
What to watch out for when importing an Abarth
Conversion tips
Although Abarth is an Italian and therefore European brand, models from outside the EU may require specific modifications to meet European MOT requirements. Think of lighting, emissions standards, and safety systems. Our workshop carries out all necessary conversion to European standards, so your Abarth can be registered without any issues.
Purchase inspection
When buying an Abarth, especially a classic, a thorough inspection is essential. Our specialists guide you through this and make sure you make a well-informed decision. Visit our purchase inspection page for more information.
Payment service
We also offer a payment service so you can handle the purchase of your Abarth safely and without complications. This gives you extra certainty that the transaction goes smoothly.
