UK - EU T2 pricing hike ????

Hi from France and a very merry Christmas to all.

Can anyone suggest why a T2 in the UK is so much cheaper than the same truck in France?

For example an '03 2.7 T2 on French eBay Classified ads is averaging at 10,000 Euros when the same T2 on U.K. Auto Trader is averaging at under 5 thousand pounds. The pound (sadly) being almost equal to the Euro!! I believe they're all made in Spain (?), so why the huge void? Beats me!

If anyone knows of a good LHD, T2 diesel, lwb, under 5y, old going for a reasonable 'UK style' price, I'd be interested!

Regards CL
