As we prepare to move to Cologne, and we plan to live in the city, within the Hohenzollering-Hansaring, we are trying to decide whether or not to bring our 2010 VW GTI auto. We understand we will have to pay for a place to park it and it will have to pass inspection. We are trying to determine how much the inspection might cost us. Obviously we know the inspector will have to see our vehicle for an exact estimate but we cannot get anyone to even give us an idea how much we are in for if we bring the car. It is in perfect condition. It was manufactured in Germany to US specs. Several sources tell us that a number of things will have to be changed on the car to bring it up to German specs. Can anyone give us a list of those things that will require changing? Or a resource for such information? Can anyone shed some light on vehicle inspections, the process and especially the costs? And finally, who can you recommend we go to for our inspection in the Cologne metro area?
