Right, wheres that Overtime sheet!

Sales tax of 16% and buyers premium of 12% to pay on top of that though

It could be worth getting a flight down and having a look. there is a chap who comes on and lives in Valencia. perhaps he knows about them.

I notice that one of the 8.5m with twin 150s has already been sold. I wonder how much for. they say that any can be sold prior to auction. some of the engine hours are a bit high 1170 on one of them.

tax payable

12 % comission
1.7% customs
16% vat (spain)
12% Special tax on means of transport if keeping it in spainish waters

so is that taxes on the final price or is it tax on tax on tax !!!

you could end up with one huge bill there !!

"buyer beware"
