enigma-2 Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Hello from Indiana. Believe you will love the Edge, I have an older MKX; best car I've ever owned. Whatever you decide, keep us informed, like to know how you come out. BTW, what's the weather like in the Netherlands this time of year?

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Welcome to the forum, Sagitarius, good luck with your quest! Do you have US spec turbo'd gasoline engines as an option, or also the 3.5L naturally aspirated one also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagitarius Posted September 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 The weather is unexpected beautiful. 26-30'C, only nights are not that warm. Euro spec diesel - engines available are always 2.0l 180HP or 210HP turbo or biturbo. US spec gasoline - are not officially imported, the same like you can have in the USA or Canada. I am not big fan of turbo engines (hateful 1.8t VW passat that I had), I will try to find solution to get 3.5l naturally aspirated. Edge is unexpected expensive here, we have very high taxes...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Getting one for yourself directly from the US or Canada will not be cheap either, as you will pay at the least high customs taxes, plus extra charges for emissions compliance and headlight compliance if normally vehicles are RHD where you are. Same issues faced by people in Germany, Finland, etc. but I hope you can find a way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
