Hi
I'm in big dilemma. I want to buy Subaru Legacy here in Kuwait and after a while to export it back to my country which has implemented homologaton law with min EURO 3 compliance for cars imported. Dealer here claims that Legacy they sell is EURO 5 but they cannot issue COC document for EURO, just GCC (GSO) COC and some kind of statement that car is EURO5. On the other hand I contacted Subaru dealer in Germany and sent them VIN for one of the cars from showroom here in Kuwait and they say that car is not EURO 5 and not be converted to EURO standards. And of course no explanation on question why and what is the difference between this car and one they sell. Specs on site are identical for both, look also...Does anyone really know if cars sold here with GCC specs can be imported to Europe?
I even went to other dealers and i.e. Volvo dealer gave me a copy od certificate stamped by Volvo Sweden stating that car is EURO 5 compliant, but guys in Volvo dealership in my country claim that this car is not EURO 5 based on VIN. So, could it be that dealers here lie just to sell car or those back home to talk you out of idea to buy car here and take it there?
Any info or advice is more than welcome...
