Every vehicle we sell is inspected and serviced in our Thérouanne workshop. We provide a condition report, administrative paperwork (collection registration or demilitarisation certificate as applicable), and we communicate any noteworthy mechanical or cosmetic point upfront.

Is an export licence required to buy this VAB?

Demilitarised military vehicles (ex-army, decommissioned, civilianised) generally do not require a specific export licence for non-embargoed countries. We verify regulatory compliance (EU 2021/821, EU customs code) for each transaction and assist you with all documentation.
