Ciao ragazzi,
Viaggerò a Berlino e pianificherò di fare un tour gratuito e facile in Europa dalla Germania al Belgio, dal Lussemburgo, e infine a Ginevra.
Tuttavia, i prezzi del noleggio auto sono troppo alti per me. Un semplice noleggio Audi A6 costerebbe circa 130 euro al giorno e il mio viaggio è di 15 giorni, il che porta il totale a circa 1950 euro.
Questo mi ha poi dato l’idea di acquistare un’auto invece di noleggiarne una, che sarebbe più economico e posso scartarla o venderla in un rivenditore in seguito, mettendo a corto le mie costi ancora più basse.
Qualche consiglio su come questo può essere fatto come singaporiano? C’è da qualche parte che posso smaltire l’auto o venderla rapidamente senza troppa seccatura a Ginevra? O devo riportarlo in Germania prima che io possa sbarazzarmi?
Qualsiasi aiuto sarebbe molto apprezzato!

You can buy, but no register or insure it. So you can’t drive it.
I don’t think you can even enter most European cities with this car. Check EURO emission regulation for each country and city you plan to visit.
A clapped out car for under 2 grand might leave you stranded, and you’re taking a long drive.
Second of all you need insurance, which will require an IBAN for the money to be debited off a bank account. And you need an address to register the car to.
Just rent a car or use public transportation/fly.
I think it is difficult solely because of bureaucracy. You will need to register the car on your name at a traffic department, usually the one in the district where you are registered. It does take time to get an appointment for that.
Of course, you can try to book one online in advance, so you can go soon after you arrive.
Another question is if you need residency to buy a car, which I am not sure about. If not I think it is possible.
You will need to get insurance for your car, but that can be done online pretty fast, but it might add up to the cost significantly. And when you buy a car there is a tax you have to pay when you register it, which is ca. 130-200€.
Also is your driver’s license recognised in EU? You will need an international driver’s license issued from your country of residence, to drive any kind of car.
As already mentioned you won’t be able to insure it. Why would you need an Audi as a rental tho? I get that you might need a bigger car for 15 days but Audi is a high price brand. A cheaper brand and maybe even a smaller car should be far less costly.
Good idea, but it won’t work. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative with some flexibility, might I suggest a Eurail pass?
Don’t rent an Audi A6 ? Renting a VW Golf should set you back 300€/week no so much more, especially at places like Alamo
You can get a short termregistration for the export of a car. That can be valid for up to a year. Yes you need a german bank account for this, but many dealers can organize that for you. And most emission zone are for cars with diesel engines with euro 4 or lower. If you buy a car with a gasoline engine it would be possible to do what you want.
But i don’t think you are going to save much money, because you won’t be able to sell the car quickly in another country because the registrration for a potential buyer is not so easy in most countries. So you would have to drop it of for free at a scrapyard.
And you are still driving a (maybe unreliable) 20 year old car.
You can
The car is marketed as “export only” because it needs an economically unfeasible amount of repairs done to pass a german roadworthyness inspection at best. At worst it jas structural damage beyond the point of repairability.
Buy in Poland. There is such a possibility there.
A simple A6? Rent a Golf or better: take the train!
Checked rental prices for 14 days in Berlin and [check24.de](http://check24.de) gave me 450 Euros in total. However, not a premium car, but something small. A VW Passat or similiar starting at 600 Euro.
What are you, hitman?
Please drive by train for your own safety, bus is also possible but it sucks.
Guy you need more money those times of romantic illusion is over. You need money for everything at least for your health.
Renting or public transport is a better and safer option.
lol this is not south east asia 😂😂 things dont work like that in Germany dude
I have done this. But it was a motorcycle and I spent 2500 euros including everything. And it was a reliable honda 500 I bought from a dealer with a warranty. Still lost 1000 euros when I sold it. Friend did it in Croatia too and rode across Europe for 20 day before just giving it away. Again it was a Honda, but a trans alp. Cost him around 650 euros ready to ride back in 2016. Even though it is a hammer when it comes to reliability, that particular one got him stranded in Switzerland. Took days for the parts to arrive and he fixed it himself at a friend’s place.
You are going for an Audi A6, TDI with god knows what history and I’m assuming you are not that well versed in fixing cars at the side of the road with no assistance. Just run the other way and rent a polo or something from starcar from their website. They always have the cheapest cars available. With full cover insurance and everything, might cost you around 60-80 euros a day. Don’t forget the vignette at the borders or you will have to pay a fine later. Good luck.
German bureaucracy? I doubt it, or it will take you some dozens of letters.
